About mini dental implants
Mini dental implants are as the name suggests, mini in terms of size.; they are made from titanium and they are used to replace the root of a missing tooth. Mini implants are often recommended when there is insufficient bone mass to support a larger implant; mini implants are also commonly used to support a denture and they provide amazing levels of stability.
How are mini dental implants fitted?
Having mini implants fitted is less invasive than traditional implant treatment and there is nothing to worry about; we simply place the mini implants into sockets in the jaw bone using a specialist minimally invasive technique. Usually, implant treatment requires months of healing; however, with mini implants, this is not the case, as the implants can be fitted without creating an incision in the gums. The head of the implant remains exposed and we are able to attach the denture shortly afterwards.
Why choose mini dental implants?
Mini implants offer many of the same benefits as traditional implants; both treatments last a very long time, both provide amazing aesthetics and exceptional levels of stability and functionality and both are easy to maintain. The procedure to fit mini implants is les invasive and this means that healing is quicker; the process is also less daunting for patients who suffer from anxiety.
Implants help to solve many of the issues commonly raised by patients with dentures. With implants in place to secure and support the denture, there is no risk of a denture slipping, the denture will feel more stable and you can enjoy increased bite power and improved speech. Implants also help to improve the overall facial aesthetic, as well as the look of the smile, as they provide greater support for the cheeks and lips to create more definition.
