Mini Dental Implants - A Simple Procedure with Immediate Results!
Replace Your Missing Tooth Instantly! Stabilize Loose Dentures in One Visit! Mini Dental Implants are small diameter dental implants, and the procedure is a much less involved process than conventional dental implants. Mini dental implants are placed in a minimally invasive procedure under local anesthetic. This is in sharp contrast to conventional implants, which are often placed in a procedure requiring a flap, bone graft, and significant healing time.
- Benefits of Mini Dental Implants:
- Immediate results
- Improve attractiveness of your smile
- Preserve bone and facial structure
- Restore confidence with speaking and eating
- Costs less than standard dental implants
Mini dental implants have been used for many years to hold denture plates in position, providing patients with the ability to eat, smile and speak with comfort and confidence. Today, use of this non-surgical mini dental implant technology has been expanded for anything from replacing a single tooth to full mouth restoration. Thousands of implants have been placed with over a 95% success rate using these cost effective procedures. The entire process consists of a consultation visit to your dentist with x-rays and impressions being taken. Then, at one treatment visit, your officially trained dentist will place the mini implant(s) in your mouth, and will position the final restoration(s). In about 30 minutes, a single tooth can be replaced. You can walk out ready to enjoy the foods you wish, without the the long healing times and and high costs associated with conventional implants.

Denture Retentive Sysytem
The standard insertion protocol for mini dental implants calls for four of them to be gently screwed into the front of a patient's lower jaw. This is a relatively painless procedure that can be performed by a general dentist, requiring only a mild anesthesia. The mini dental implants, which are approximately the size of wooden toothpicks, are placed about five millimeters apart in the patient's mandible. The patient's denture is then carefully adjusted by the dentist to allow it to snap onto the four mini implants. The result? A tight fitting, completely reliable system that allows a patient to speak and eat with confidence. The Mini Dental Implants are placed in about an hour's time. Because of the unique, minimally invasive procedure, the minute size of the implants, and the characteristic placement area, the typical Mini Dental Implant patient can enjoy a light meal an hour or so after having the mini implants placed. Further,a denture patient who has had his or her prosthesis stabilized with MDI can remove and replace the denture easily after a little practice, and can easily utilize good dental hygiene.
