Mini Implants


Mini implants are a unique way to stabilize a patients’ denture. Typically four small diameter implants are placed and your existing denture is retrofitted with o-ring snaps to hold it in place. This is all done with a minimally invasive surgery that normally doesn’t require an incision or sutures. The process usually takes about two hours and you can begin to use your new implants right away. Mini implants offer a surprisingly affordable way for patients to have a stable denture.
 
O-ring retainers in small metal housings are fitted to your denture to allow the implant to clip into the denture.
