Transform Your Smile With Mini Implants
There is a wide range of benefits to a mini implant procedure. Also known as narrow diameter implants, they are often perfect for older adults who have a jaw weakened by bone loss but want to secure replacement teeth like dentures without the use of adhesive. The added support provided by these implants helps increase your chewing efficiency. In addition, mini implants are:
- Less Invasive – With their smaller diameter, placing mini implants is a less involved process. This means you can heal much quicker too. Often times, patients don’t require a grafting procedure, since you don’t need as much bone in your jaw to support these implants.
- Easier to Place – Our periodontist can usually place your mini implants with minimal concern. This is a huge benefit for patients who have been told that traditional implants are not a good fit for their needs.
- Less Expensive – The cost of implants can be significant. With mini implants, you save money because the procedure takes less time and is less involved than placing standard implants. However, we offer financing options with our membership plan or through a third party. Simply let us know if you’d like to discuss your options.
We’d love to work with you on giving you an option for dental implants that improves your oral function and keeps your teeth in place. During an initial consultation, we’ll use panoramic X-rays and 3-D imaging to capture necessary information about your dental health before we begin. Ask us about our $50 consultation special!

Common Questions About Mini Dental Implants
As the name implies, a mini dental implant is a smaller version of a dental implant. As with traditional dental implants, a post is surgically embedded into your jaw to act as a foundation for the dental restoration that will replace your tooth or teeth. The main difference between mini dental implants and traditional dental implants is that a smaller titanium post is used (about half the size of posts for traditional implants), which requires a less invasive procedure.
Mini dental implants are smaller, tend to be less expensive, and heal faster than traditional dental implants. They are an effective solution for tooth loss patients who can’t undergo a standard dental implant procedure due to loss of jawbone density or other oral health issues.
Mini dental implants can be as effective as standard implants. Because of their small size, they are used in areas where the jawbone is not as thick or strong since they don’t require as much healthy bone to bond with. The added support provided by these implants helps increase your chewing efficiency.
