At Happy Smiles Family Dentistry, we understand that affordable dental care is essential and sometimes hard to find, which is why we make it a priority. One way we demonstrate this commitment to offering innovative but budget-friendly care is by providing treatments like mini dental implants. Like traditional dental implants, mini implants replace missing teeth by acting as artificial tooth roots that support restorations. However, they’re a lot less costly. On top of the immediate cost savings, we also offer flexible financing solutions that help make mini dental implants affordable. At our practice, we believe in providing patient-centered care that is considerate of your budget.
The Cost of Mini Dental Implants
Did you know that mini dental implants are about half the width and half the cost of conventional dental implants? Traditional implants can be an expensive option because they have more parts, require a more complex procedure due to their large size, and need more appointments. In contrast, mini implants have a slim one-piece design that significantly lowers costs. Because of this design, Dr. Aristodemo can place mini implants in a single appointment, further reducing the overall price.
Mini dental implants provide high-quality tooth replacement at a more affordable cost than their multi-piece counterparts. Plus, we offer convenient third-party financing options that help make the cost of mini dental implants more manageable.
Companies like CareCredit, Alphaeon, and Proceed Finance allow you to select a payment plan that best suits your budget. Depending on which financial plan is right for you, you may be eligible for up to short-term interest-free financing for your mini implant procedure.
No matter your financial situation, Happy Smiles Family Dentistry is committed to providing excellent dental care at affordable prices so you can have the smile you deserve.
Why Mini Dental Implants Are Worth the Cost
With many benefits over conventional implants, mini dental implants provide excellent value at a reduced cost.
While conventional implants are about 5 mm wide and have multiple components, mini dental implants are less than 3 mm in diameter and have a single titanium post.
Besides contributing to a more affordable procedure, the one-piece design of mini implants has other advantages. For example, Dr. Aristodemo can place these implants in just one appointment, and the procedure itself requires no incisions or sutures. Due to the size of conventional implants, Dr. Aristodemo must make an incision into the gums to reveal the bone underneath. Then, she places the implant into the bone using a series of larger and larger drills.
The mini dental implant process is minimally invasive, as Dr. Aristodemo only has to thread the implant through a small pilot hole in the gums. Because of their less invasive nature, healing after mini dental implant placement is very straightforward.
These implants also offer a more modern design than conventional implants, as they’re similar to a self-tapping screw. Mini implants screw right into the bone and are instantly stable. Unlike a traditional implant, a mini implant can immediately support restorations. While both conventional and mini implants anchor crowns, bridges, or dentures, mini implants allow you to leave our office with functional teeth the same day! After placing your implants, Dr. Aristodemo will attach a temporary restoration to maintain function until your final restoration is ready.
While conventional implants are preferable in certain scenarios, mini implants are more accessible as they require less bone for support. Many patients needing tooth replacement don’t have enough jawbone for conventional implants. Because mini implants require less space, they’re often the ideal solution
