Mini-Implants For Dentures :

What are mini dental implants for dentures?

We take pride in offering our patients the latest technology in dental implants. We use an FDA-approved dental implant system that is proven to provide a long term solution for many of our denture wearing patients.

This dental implant system, which is patient-friendly and cost-effective, includes a miniature titanium (an extremely strong and durable metal) implant with a ball-shaped head which acts like the root of a tooth and a tiny retaining fixture which acts as a socket.

An O-ring connects the two and securely holds the denture in place, which provides comfort and peace of mind when speaking and chewing.
