English The most important part of building a house is the foundation. Shifting sands and unstable soil are unsuitable for use as a foundation, as your home requires stability and strength for support. Instead, construction workers use bases like concrete to support structures, providing incredible and lasting stability. Similarly, building a smile requires the same level of stability and support. When missing teeth, it’s important to replace them with restorations that are secure and functional. Unfortunately, traditional restorations like puentes y dentaduras lack the stability necessary for a secure fit! Mini dental implants, however, provide a solid foundation that keeps your artificial teeth securely in place. For unmatched stability and comfort, visit Brent Bradford, DDS, for mini implants in Liverpool, NY.
Understanding Mini Implants
Implantes dentales are titanium posts we place in your jawbone to support artificial teeth restorations. Unlike traditional restorations, these implants secure into your jaw for the ultimate stability, replicating the connection your natural teeth have with your jawbone. Whether you need to replace a diente único with a corona, dientes múltiples with a puente, or your entire smile with a dentadura, dental implants may be the right solution for you!

When possible, we even prefer to use these implants due to the numerous benefits they provide to pacientes como tú¡! Estos beneficios incluyen:

Due to their smaller diameter, mini implants require less jawbone for placement than conventional implants, allowing those who are no aptos para implantes convencionales to remain eligible for tooth replacement!

The Mini Implants Process in Liverpool
At Brent Bradford, DDS, the mini implant process always begins with a free consultation. We will start by discussing your goals and performing a thorough dental examination. Afterward, we’ll take a 3D X-ray of your smile to asses your jawbone.
Often, patients who have lost jawbone structure aren’t eligible for conventional dental implants, as they require ample bone. However, patients are generally eligible for mini implants in most cases, even if they’ve lost bone structure! Once we’ve determined your eligibility, we will plan the optimal position for your implants and schedule a procedural appointment.
At your procedural appointment, we’ll use a local anesthetic to keep you numb and comfortable throughout the procedure. Next, we’ll create a small pilot hole through your gums and into your jawbone. This hole allows us to guide the implant into place, where it becomes instantly stable enough to support a temporary restoration.
This is possible partly due to the dental implant’s titanium structure. Titanium is a biocompatible material that interacts well with living bone. When inserted into your jaw, a process known as osseointegration occurs, allowing the bone and implant to integrate. In general, titanium implants have an incredibly high and long-term success rate. When in your jaw, they both support bone health and keep your artificial teeth stable!
On average, mini implants take around 21 days of healing. While you wait for your gums and bone to heal, you can use your fully functional temporary teeth with only slight restrictions on what you can eat. When your implant is stable enough, we will remove the temporary prosthesis and attach a final version!
