| | | Dental Implants in 1 Day | |
One of the more recent, cutting edge technologies developed by Branemark that is now available to many patients is Immediate Load or Immediate Placement dental implants. This unique procedure enables patients to be fitted for temporary crowns on the same day and the fixed crown or bridge within 5-7 days the implant device is installed. The usual 3 to 6 month healing period, as intraditional implant dentistry, is eliminated. This feature makes Immediate Load implants very attractive to patients who historically have avoided the use of dental implants

Traditional Implants | |
Implants are titanium screws placed in your jawbone, usually by a periodontist, which provide a false root to place a new
crown or bridge on. They replace broken or extracted teeth and are very effective in restoring natural looks and function. If you're missing one tooth or all of your teeth, implants may well be for you. So long as you have enough bone in the area of the missing tooth to facilitate the anchorage of the implants, this procedure can yield terrific results. |

A Mini Implant is an alternative treatment to substitute small dental pieces such as teeth, crowns and bridges with mini-implants in cases where the patient has small open spaces or as a part of a bridge. It helps support fixed bridge replacements for lost teeth. Mini implants can function as long-term supporting structures rather than as short-term or medium term devices. The Mini Dental Implants are placed in about an hour’s time. Because of the unique, minimally invasive procedure, the minute size of the implants, and the characteristic placement area, the typical Mini Dental Implant patient can enjoy a light meal an hour after having the mini implants placed. This is a great option for patients who do not have the time to travel twice to complete their treatment since it can be carried out in seven days total. This is an extremely short time compared to the usual implant which requires 4 months time between the surgery and the collocation of the crown. Mini |
