What Are Mini Dental Implants? 

Mini dental implants are a smaller, more convenient alternative to traditional implants. They’re less invasive and can fit into smaller spaces, eliminating the need for supplemental procedures. Mini implants are just half the size in diameter of a regular implant, allowing for more patients to receive treatment and restore their beautiful smiles.

THE BENEFITS OF

Mini Dental Implants

Mini dental implants are one of the most significant advancements in implant dentistry. Our patients are regaining their confidence to speak, eat, and laugh without hesitation when undergoing treatment with mini implants.

With our mini implants, patients can expect to receive the following benefits:

• Minimally invasive procedure
• Cost-effective solution 
• Faster and more comfortable recovery
• Fewer appointments to our office
• Can be completed without bone grafting
• Prevents facial collapse
• Little to no pain before and after implant placement

The Difference Between Traditional and Mini Dental Implants

Traditional dental implants require a substantial amount of bone density for the titanium fixture to bond with the jawbone. If this happens, the patient must undergo a supplemental procedure, such as a bone graft, before receiving dental implants. 

Mini dental implants don’t require as much space as they’re only half the diameter of a regular implant. They’re a great alternative for patients who don’t have enough viable bone left to support traditional dental implants. 

Typically, our Triad dentists can place four to six mini dental implants along either arch. The entire procedure can be completed in just one visit to our Archdale, NC office, making mini implants a great option for those eager to restore their smile as soon as possible.

Aftercare

The recovery period following your mini dental implant procedure is relatively short and easy. You should be able to resume your normal routine within one to two days after surgery. It’s normal to experience some soreness and discomfort. We recommend managing any pain with over-the-counter medications and cold compresses. 

While recovering, try to avoid hard and sticky foods. This helps reduce the risk of your implant loosening or being pulled out. We recommend sticking to soft food and liquid diet for the first few days after your procedure.
