Mini Implants

Mini Implants consist of a miniature titanium implant that acts like the root of your tooth and a retaining fixture that is incorporated into the base of your denture. The head of the implant is shaped like a ball, and the retaining fixture acts like a socket that contains a rubber O-ring. The O-ring snaps over the ball when the denture is seated and holds the denture at a predetermined level of force. When seated, the denture gently rests on the gum tissue. The implant fixtures allow for micro-mobility while withstanding natural lifting forces.

If you would like further information regarding mini implants, we encourage you to make a 30 minute complimentary consultation appointment. If your interest continues after that appointment, we will require a current panoramic X-ray.
