Mini Dental Implants
Mini dental implants are the answers to denture problems. And with the facilitation of technology, a patient can have dentures attached to the mini implants in a one hour session with a dentist. These are mainly long term solutions for the stabilization of the denture. Further, the cost of a mini implant is just a 1/12 the cost of a standard dental rootform implant.

Generally, there are two types of mini dental implants. These are the original Mini implant which is 1.8 mm in diameter and the Max with a smaller diameter. The length of the mini implant can be one of the four allowed lengths and dependent on the size of the bone available in the jaw that can support it. In here, the density of the bone is also considered. On the other hand, the Max implant is 1.60 mm in diameter and comes in three lengths. The latter is usually used for low density bones. The main difference of mini implants over standard implants is the span of loading. The former are easier to load and the patient who just had them can use the teeth instantly for eating. Moreover, there is no age limit for patients who want to have mini implants. Also, they are not vulnerable to fracture since the material being used is titanium.Mini Dental Implants

The process of implantation is much the same for the standard dental implants. There is no need for bone grafting if the location where they will be inserted can accommodate them properly. There will be holes to be drilled and the implants will be screwed in there.
