Watch this video to lean more about mini dental implants and why they are an ideal option to replace missing or damaged teeth with minimal healing time.

What is a mini implant and how’s it different from a regular implant? Well, if you look at this X ray here, you can see here we have these two big fat implants. They take up a lot of room in your bone. Sometimes that’s necessary. Most of the time it isn’t. This is a mini implant. Much less invasive, very quick, very easy, and less costly as well. So if you think you might be interested in mini dental implants and what they can do for you, please give us a call for free consultation and 3D scan.
