Have You Ever Heard Of Mini Implants?
Do you need a tooth replacement but find yourself struggling to choose an option that suits your needs? Or perhaps you have dentures but are frustrated because they are constantly loose. One treatment option that may be of interest is a mini implant. This lesser-known dental treatment has many benefits that patients love. Read on to learn more.
What Are Mini Implants?
Do you love the idea of dental implants but are concerned about certain aspects of treatment, such as the long healing time? If so, mini implants may be the right treatment for you. Similar to traditional dental implants, mini implants are, as their ngame says, smaller dental implants. Mini implants are implanted into the jawbone without the invasive surgical procedure required by traditional implants. This treatment is commonly used to stabilize loose dentures, but it is also a great option for incisors or premolars. Mini implants fit perfectly into smaller spaces.
Benefits of Mini Implants
One of the biggest drawbacks of traditional dental implants is the long treatment and healing time. From start to finish, it can take many months. With mini implants, the treatment can be completed in one day or in very few appointments. We look at each case to determine if the treatment can be completed in one or two appointments. We will always recommend the option that gives the highest quality results. The healing time for mini implants is a few days instead of a few months. Other benefits of mini implants include:
- More affordable compared to traditional dental implants
- The entire treatment can be completed in our office
- No bone grafts or flap surgery required
- Comfortable in the mouth
- Look and feel like natural teeth
- A long-term replacement
