Dr. Eric Meyer of Fullerton Dental in Fullerton, CA Offers Mini Dental Implants

When looking to replace teeth, it is nice to have options. In addition, it is very nice to have options that last. That is why Dr. Eric Meyer of Fullerton Dental offers mini dental implants to his patients in Fullerton, CA. Mini implants are half the size of traditional dental implants, so they can be used for situations where the full-sized implants cannot!

Because mini dental implants are about half the size, they do not require a surgical process to insert them. They are able to be placed right into the jawbone. Healing time is also much less. Often, because there is no incision, the permanent crown can be placed onto the implant the same day the implant is placed. With full-sized implants, a temporary crown is attached to allow the implant to heal over three to six months.

Mini implants are great for replacing teeth in a narrow space. If a full-sized implant cannot fit, a mini implant might! In addition, mini implants are often used to create a more stable base for dentures. If your dentures are ill-fitting, if they move around when you talk, eat, smile, or laugh, or if they always need to be re-fitted, mini implants may be the answer! Dr. Meyer places four to six mini implants along the upper or lower jaw line where the dentures will clip into. Most dentures can be modified to fit into the mini implants; so many patients will be able to use their current dentures! In addition to better stabilization, implant-retained dentures help keep the jaw line from deteriorating. This keeps your dentures well-fitted for a long time.

If you are looking for tooth replacement, a mini dental implant is a permanent replacement and a great way to wear dentures. To schedule your appointment with Dr. Eric Meyer of Fullerton Dental in Fullerton, CA, call his office at (714) 879-7943 or visit his website,www.fullertondental.com.
