The practice is called deadheading and it works for many different types of flowers. Snapdragons, impatiens, and others.
Mums in most areas will also come back next year if planted outside in the ground. In most zones below zone 4 I think they are perennials...

its possible because you save energy for the plant.If you leave buds on, the plant uses energy to produce the seeds.
When your certain they have finished flowering, cut them back 2/3 so they will grow well next season
