When you have lost most of your teeth and need dentures, but your smile has been weakened, you may think your options are limited. But we could use Mini Implants to create durable and lifelike prosthetics that never slip, and can last decades to come. In today’s blog, your Livonia, MI, dentist talks about our Mini Implants!
The Difference
Mini Implants are smaller than traditional ones and much more economical too. Instead of a waiting period between the placement of the implant posts and the attachment of the denture, we can complete this in the same visit. You will leave the office with a full smile!
When You Qualify
When you see us, we will carefully examine your smile with advanced digital technology. We want to assess the state of your jawbone and also pinpoint the underlying cause of your tooth loss. You may need treatment to manage these issues before we move forward. In the past, jawbone that has lost mass and density following tooth loss could complicate implant placement. In fact, surgical procedures like grafting and sinus lifts would have been necessary to rebuild the weakened jaw and make it ready for implant placement.
But with the Mini option, we insert unique posts designed to work with reduced jawbone strength, and stimulate the growth of structure. This prevents further breakdown in the jaw, so you don’t develop a prematurely aged appearance and your new roots can stay in place for decades to come or possibly even a lifetime.
Supporting Your New Smile
We use digital technology to guide the implant post into place. Made from biocompatible titanium, they will bond with the bone tissue like actual roots. We then connect abutments to them and secure the finished denture to them. The denture portion will be custom-made to ensure the teeth look natural and provide a durable and long-lasting tooth replacement. We want you to not only smile with confidence, but eat your favorite food again and speak without difficulty! Addressing your tooth loss with implant dentistry means durable tooth replacement that can last for many years to come.
If you have any questions about Mini Implants or about any of our other tooth replacement options, then talk to our team today. From a single missing tooth to a new smile, we can help you obtain a smile that functions properly, looks great, and preserves your youthful features.
