What are Mini Dental Implants, Benefits, and the Process Involved

Mini dental implants are designed for replacing lost teeth in situations whereby the patient doesn’t want to receive conventional treatment. This new dental-fixing technique eliminates the shortcomings of regular dental implants as mini dental implant procedures are less painful but relatively affordable. Are you an Arizona resident who’s missing some important teeth and want to restore your dentition to normal? Well, look no further than Newman Dental, the premier cosmetic and family dentistry clinic in Tucson, AZ. Our personalized dentistry services offer you excellent dental treatments to meet your unique requirements. Dr. Newman’s dental facility can create a detailed picture of your oral structure using digital imaging technology and prescribe effective restoration treatment options for you.

What are mini dental implants?

They’re convenient dental implant options for people who want to replace their lost teeth but prefer not to go through conventional restoration procedures. Patients may want to avoid dental surgery for traditional implants due to a myriad of reasons. For instance, if you lack the right amount of bone mass in your jaw, invasive dental surgery may not be the best choice.

A typical mini dental implant measures roughly half the size of regular implants, requiring less amount of bone mass for a successful installation. Adults with accident-related tooth loss problems tend to choose mini dental implants as their excellent treatment plans.

A lot of dentists recommend mini implants for individuals with small teeth/mouths. Similar to traditional tooth implants, dentists usually install mini dental implants right in your jawbone to minimize the risks of facial collapse.

Reasons to get mini dental implants

Please bear in mind that the volume of space in your mouth can limit your dental implant options to just one thing — a mini dental implant. When you visit Newman Dental, doctors can advise you on the best treatment option to take. For example, assuming your teeth are damaged, and you need artificial replacements, they can recommend a variety of options to you based on the extent of damage, as well as the size and shape of the missing teeth.

Benefits of mini dental implants

It can be confusing for patients to decide what dental procedure will work best for them. But, once you schedule an appointment with Tucson dentists like Dr. Newman, you’ll be well-educated on the pros and cons of various dental treatment options to help you make the right choice.

No requirement for a complex dental flap

What they say about us

I can't recommend Dr. Newman highly enough! After a less-than-stellar experience with our previous pediatric dentist, we decided to make the switch for our whole family, and it was the best decision. Dr. Newman creates a warm and welcoming environment that puts both kids and parents at ease. He makes each visit fun and silly, which has turned dental appointments into something my children actually look forward to. The entire staff is attentive and caring, making every visit a positive experience. We are so grateful to have found such a wonderful dentist!

Rosa, the hygienist, is truly a treasure! Her technique is gentle yet firm. Dr. Newman puts you at ease and has a great personality. The front office staff is very friendly and makes you feel welcome the minute you walk in. Give Newman Dental a visit and you won't regret it!

Okay, I'm back for my 6 month cleaning and Rosa has retired. But the hygienist I saw was Barbara, who I am very, very happy with. She's attentive, very thorough and makes you feel very much at ease. I feel very lucky to have such continued professionalism and quality service at Dr. Newman's office!

I am an attorney. I have had some great dentists in many states and other countries, but Dr Newman’s practice tops all others. It all begins when you speak with the office manager, Sydney who is efficient, friendly and knowledgeable. Dr Newman has assembled the latest technology, the best staff and knows exactly how to correct any problem. I had many. If you have an emergency, as I did, he immediately attends to it. If a referral is needed such as oral surgery, he will send you only to the top in class. His hygienists will assure you a lifetime of healthy teeth. His office is a happy place as are his clients.

I had my first visit with Dr. Newman and his staff this morning and I could not be happier. After not seeing a dentist since before the pandemic, I was terrified. Barbara was so kind and gentle and Dr. Newman answered all of my questions and made me feel so much more at ease. I was afraid and embarrassed for not taking better care of my teeth, but not once was shamed for it -which was my biggest fear. I am now looking forward to starting my journey toward a healthier smile. I would also like to add that I don’t have insurance and I felt everything was very reasonably priced.

I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Newman on Thursday! I switched dental practices after several years and was a little nervous about seeing someone new. Dr. Newman put me at ease, did a thorough examination, and was very fair in his explanation of maintaining my dental health going forward. I appreciate that he is easy to talk to and answered all of my questions! Then I saw the dental hygienist Barbara on Friday and she was great too! Barbara went over exactly what I needed to do to improve and maintain my dental hygiene. My teeth feel great and I'm so happy I switched!

I recently had a fantastic experience at Dr. Dirk Newman's clinic, especially noteworthy for how great he is with kids. The welcoming and professional atmosphere immediately put us at ease. Dr. Newman's skill in making dental visits less scary for children, through his patient explanations and comforting demeanor, really stood out. His thorough knowledge, combined with a gentle approach, makes him excellent for families. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Newman to anyone seeking a dentist who excels in treating both adults and children, providing a positive and comfortable dental experience across the board.
