What Is a Mini Dental Implant?
In this video, Dr. Tracie Battle explains how mini dental implants are used to replace missing teeth and support dentures.
Dental implants are the most reliable replacement for missing teeth. If you are missing one tooth, a dental implant is a great option to restore a single tooth or multiple missing teeth. We can also do full-arch reconstruction, where a full denture or roundhouse bridge is placed on top of the implants, sometimes immediately upon placement.
Dental implants can also be used to stabilize existing dentures. If you are missing teeth and have worn a denture for a long time, and it is no longer wearable or moves around, stabilizing it with dental implants is a good option.
The benefits of mini dental implants include that they are, number one, less invasive. Number two, they often do not require bone grafting. Many mini dental implants can be placed in a single visit and may be placed immediately. They are also often less expensive than traditional dental implants.
The best option for you will be determined during your consultation visit.
