Why Choose Mini Dental Implants?

Do you suffer from loose dentures? Are you embarrassed to smile because you are missing teeth? Conventional dental implants can offer a great solution. But what if you are not a good candidate for conventional implants? Or you cannot afford the cost or time involved?

Mini dental implants may be your answer. Mini dental implants are a smaller, more lightweight version of a standard implant that can be placed non-surgically to secure a removable denture or anchor a permanent crown that is replacing a missing tooth.

Because of their size, mini implants can often be used when a patient has a small jawbone, or has been told that he/she does not have enough bone to allow for full size conventional implants. Since the placement of mini implants is quick, using a simple, gentle, non-surgical technique, mini implants can also be an ideal solution for people who cannot withstand the rigors of conventional implant surgery or are slow to heal like diabetics.

Because the mini dental implant procedure is much less involved, it can be completed in less time (often in one day) and at a fraction of the cost associated with the larger conventional dental implants.

Like standard dental implants, mini dental implants preserve bone and, therefore, maintain the structure, appearance and function of your face and mouth. And, like conventional implants, the use of non-surgical mini dental implant technology has been expanded for everything from single tooth replacement to full mouth restoration. Thousands of mini implants have been placed and studies demonstrate a success rate greater than 95% when provided by a properly trained and experienced dentist.

Therefore, even if you are a candidate for conventional implants, you might want to consider mini dental implants. Mini dental implants can offer a less invasive, faster, more affordable and permanent way for anyone to replace missing teeth or stabilize a loose, uncomfortable denture/bridge. In as little as one office visit with less discomfort and less healing time mini dental implants can offer a simple, cost effective way to restore your health, your smile, andyour confidence.
