Though they are not as well known as standard dental implants, mini implants are being used successfully in the Oklahoma City area to improve smiles.
Like their larger diameter counterparts, mini implants can support a restoration for one or more missing teeth or replace a bridge or fixed denture. Denture wearers benefit greatly from these slip-free dental implants that are inserted securely in the jaw bone.
In some cases, a patient is unable to receive standard full-size dental implants due to insufficient bone thickness. There are also mini-implant patients who are not able to endure dental implant surgery due to health issues. These patients are often excellent candidates for the mini version.
The placement of toothpick-size mini dental implants can sometimes be done in one dental visit. The placement usually requires no incisions or stitches. Recovery time, if required, is commonly very short. Most patients are able to eat dinner that evening.
Don’t let the word “mini” fool you; your smile can receive a maximum upgrade with mini dental implants. Call OKC Smiles at 405-634-7303 to schedule a consultation.
