What Are Mini Dental Implants?

Advances in dental technology can help anyone achieve a beautiful, healthy smile—even with the loss of natural teeth. Dentures are one option for replacing missing teeth, but sometimes they do not fit as well as they should. If your dentures are unstable, talk to your dentist about having mini dental implants (MDI). Mini implants are just what they sound like: they’re like traditional dental implants, but smaller and less invasive. Major surgery is not required. Also, they’re much more cost-effective and work just as well as traditional implants.

Many people choose to have mini implants to stabilize their dentures. They can also replace the missing teeth with no need for dentures. They’re particularly ideal for replacing teeth in a narrow area. Mini dental implants do not require as much bone mass as traditional implants, so even those with bone deterioration may be good candidates for this procedure.
