English Despite their commonality, missing teeth are a significant inconvenience. Not only do they mess with the aesthetics of your smile, but they also make eating and talking more difficult! The longer you go without replacing teeth, the more your jawbone will lose mass and volume due to a lack of stimulation. Any remaining teeth will shift in your mouth over time, causing difficulties when chewing tougher foods. Overall, losing adult teeth is never a good thing and should be remedied as soon as possible. The best way to replace missing teeth is with dental implants! These titanium screws anchor into your jawbone to both secure your artificial teeth and to keep your jaw healthy and full. However, many dental implant solutions are expensive. Fortunately, Dr. Bradford at Brent Bradford, DDS, offers inexpensive dental implants like mini dental implants!

Conventional Dental Implants vs. Mini Dental Implants
Implantes dentales are titanium posts that we place in your jawbone to anchor restorations. These artificial teeth come in various forms, each serving a different need. If you want to replace a single missing tooth, a corona dental is a great option. A puente dental is suitable for multiple missing teeth in a row. In some cases, we combine crowns and bridges to fill in the gaps in your smile. To replace your entire arch of teeth, we use prótesis implantosoportadas to provide excellent security and a strong bite!
Conventional dental implants are a common dental implant that many practices use to restore your smile. While effective, these implants have a few important drawbacks. These include things like:
Invasive procedure: Dental implants are around 5 mm in diameter, which requires a relatively invasive procedure. To reach your bone, an incision must be made in your gums. Then, a series of drills increasing in size create a large hole in your jaw for the implant to fit.- Large diameter: Due to the size of a conventional implant, many patients are not eligible for this procedure. After losing bone structure due to tooth loss, patients often lack the necessary bone for placing conventional implants. While we can provide a bone graft to replace the missing bone, this adds to the cost and length of your procedure.
- Multi-piece design: Conventional implants have various components that are all placed at separate appointments. This is very time-consuming, as your gums and implant must heal between appointments.
- Expensive price: Their multi-piece design and large diameter make conventional implants a costly option to replace your missing teeth.

Inexpensive Dental Implant Solutions
Miniimplantes dentales are smaller in diameter, measuring less than 3 mm in width. Because of their smaller size, Dr. Bradford uses a procedimiento mínimamente invasivo to place them! By avoiding incisions and stitches, he preserves the tissues surrounding your implant, which helps facilitate faster healing. Rather than waiting 6-9 months for your final restoration, your smile will be ready in sólo 21 días!
The process is simple. Using a small pilot hole in your gums and bone, he gently screws the mini implant into place. Once inside your jaw, mini implants are immediately stable enough to support a temporary restoration! If you are replacing your entire smile with dentures, Dr. Bradford will wait for your final restoration to arrive before placing your implants, so he can attach your new smile on el mismo día.
On average, mini implants are much less expensive than conventional implants. These narrow-diameter implants are a single piece, which means you pay for fewer components and appointments. Additionally, mini implants rarely require a bone graft, as they use significantly less bone structure than conventional implants.
While the cost of a mini implant procedure varies depending on how many implants you require, we have ways to make them even more affordable.
Unfortunately, most insurance companies don’t cover dental implants, but yours may cover at least a portion. We also partner with various financing companies that help break your costs down into pagos mensuales manejables! If you have any questions regarding insurance or financing, give us a call and we’ll be happy to help however we can.
