July 26, 2023

Replacing missing teeth is essential to avoid long-term digestive and health problems. While removable dentures have been a common solution, they come with challenges like dietary restrictions and discomfort due to a poor fit. If the fit can’t be improved and your budget doesn’t extend to full blown dental implants, how can we improve the comfort of your dentures?

Ok, you’ve lost your teeth and now is this how you see your future. A progressive degradation of the quality of your life?

In this guide, we explore the advantages of mini dental implants, their comfortable procedure, faster healing time, and why they are an excellent option for many patients, especially elderly individuals.

1.     Mini Dental Implants: A Better Alternative to Removable Dentures. Missing teeth can be efficiently replaced with mini dental implants, offering many benefits similar to traditional implants but at approximately one-third of the cost. Unlike removable dentures, mini dental implants are secured into the jaw, eliminating the problems associated with loose and ill-fitting dentures.

2.     A comfortable and Swift Treatment Process: The procedure for mini dental implants is faster than traditional implants, and the healing time is significantly faster. A few small anchor points are inserted into the jawbone (in most cases without even having to cut open the skin). These are the width of a toothpick. These anchor points securely attach to your existing or a new denture. The attachment of the denture reduces the chaffing of the skin by a moving denture.

 

3.     Enjoy a Wider Range of Foods with Mini Dental Implants: You will benefit from a wider choice of foods, compared to removable dentures. While the implant allows for some movement, it remains secure, providing confidence and ease while eating. Once the gums are fully healed, patients can enjoy a diverse range of foods without worry.


4.     Cost-Effective and Secure Solution The biggest advantages of mini dental implants lie in their reduced cost compared to conventional implants and the enhanced security they offer compared to removable dentures. The confidence of knowing that their false tooth won't fall out during meals will boost your self-assurance in social situations.

5.     Mini Dental Implants: The Ideal Option for Older Patients Due to the minimal need for surgery and reduced healing time, mini dental implants are an excellent option for older individuals. As jaw changes with age, removable dentures can become cumbersome, and traditional implants may not be feasible due to invasiveness and pain. However, mini dental implants provide older patients with a comfortable and viable solution, restoring their confidence and comfort. The process is even easier with the advent of navigation guided surgery. This technology allows the insertion of implants without even cutting open the gum.
