Hampden County's preferred implant specialists

Mini dental implants (MDIs) are a type of dental implant that are smaller in diameter than traditional dental implants. They are typically used to stabilize and support dentures, bridges, or crowns in the jawbone when there is not enough bone available to support a standard-sized implant. At Feeding Hills Dental Care, we are proud to be able to offer mini dental implants to our patients in the Feeding Hills area.

What Are Mini Dental Implants?

Mini dental implants are made of a titanium alloy and have a ball-shaped attachment at the top that fits into a socket on the denture, bridge, or crown. The implant is placed into the jawbone through a minimally invasive procedure that typically requires only local anesthesia. Because of their smaller size, MDIs can often be placed in areas where traditional implants cannot.

Advantages of Mini Dental Implants

MDIs have a number of advantages over traditional dental implants. These include:

Less invasive. The placement of mini dental implants is less invasive than traditional dental implants because the procedure requires no incision in the gum tissue, no stitches, and a tiny hole in the bone.

Quicker procedure. The placement of mini dental implants typically requires less time and is a quicker procedure than traditional dental implants. It can often be done in one visit to the dentist.

Lower cost. Mini dental implants are about half as expensive as traditional dental implants, making them a more affordable option for many patients.

Less bone required. Mini dental implants can be placed in areas where there is less bone, which can make them an option for patients who have experienced shrinkage of the jaw over time.

Secure dentures and other restorations. Mini dental implants can be used to stabilize and support dentures, bridges, and crowns in the jawbone, which can improve their function and stability.

Minimal discomfort. The placement of mini dental implants is typically associated with minimal discomfort, and patients can usually manage any pain or discomfort with over-the-counter pain medications.

Reduced treatment time. Because mini dental implants require less time for placement and healing, patients can complete their treatment in less time than with traditional dental implants.

Are Mini Dental Implants Right for Me?

It's important to note that MDIs are not appropriate for every situation, and a thorough dental evaluation is needed to determine if they are a suitable option for you. We can help you understand the pros and cons of mini implants to help you make an informed decision.
