Mini Implants

What exactly is a mini-implant? Mini implants are 1.8, 2.1, 2.4 or 2.9mm titanium alloy implants that act like the root of a tooth.

In denture applications, a retaining fixture containing an O-Ring is incorporated into the base of the patient’s denture. The head of the implant is shaped like a ball and the retaining housing acts like a socket. The O-Ring then snaps over the ball when the denture is seated and holds the denture in place at a predetermined level of retention.

These mini implant fixtures allow for micro-mobility while withstanding natural lifting forces. Some mini implants have also been approved by the FDA for long-term dental applications and are indicated for immediate loading.

Mini implant systems can work wonders by retrofitting patients' existing dentures saving patients time and money.

At PRO-Craft Dental Laboratory we can provide PFM and all ceramic dental restorations that follow the proper protocols for immediate load applications. This particular technique can be easily learned by attending a one or two day certification course from companies like IMTEC.
