Mini Implants
A dental implant is a surgical component that interfaces with the bone of the jaw or skull to support a dental prosthesis such as a crown, bridge, denture, facial prosthesis or to act as an orthodontic anchor.
Benefits of Mini Dental Implants
- Mini implants are smaller in size, making them suitable for areas with limited bone volume or where space is restricted.
- Mini dental implants are commonly used in situations where there is inadequate bone volume to support traditional implants or when there is limited space between adjacent teeth or anatomical structures.
- Mini dental implants stabilize and support removable dentures. They are strategically placed in the jawbone to anchor and secure dentures in place, preventing slippage, discomfort, and irritation of the gums.
- Mini dental implants are often used so that prosthetic restorations can be attached to the implants shortly after placement. Allowing patients to enjoy the benefits of dental implants more quickly, without the need for a prolonged healing period.
- Due to their smaller size, mini dental implants may require less invasive surgical techniques compared to traditional implants. This can result in faster healing times, and a more comfortable experience for the patient.
- Mini dental implants may be more cost-effective than traditional implants, making them an attractive option for patients with budgetary constraints.
