Spanish Millions of Americans face the decision of how to replace missing teeth each year, with options ranging from traditional dental bridges to dental implants. While a dental bridge is effective, it puts added pressure on the surrounding teeth and doesn’t replace the tooth root. A better option for single-tooth replacement is to attach a crown to a dental implant. This doesn’t strain healthy teeth and also replaces the tooth root, keeping your jawbone strong. The real debate begins when choosing between the types of dental implants available: mini dental implants from an implant specialist like Dr. Jon Ferrari or the conventional dental implants used by a ClearChoice Dental Implant Center. When you compare them side by side, mini dental implants are the clear choice.
The Efficiency of Mini Dental Implants
One of the most significant advantages of mini dental implants is their efficiency. The placement of mini implants requires no surgical incisions or sutures, translating into significantly less discomfort post-procedure and a quicker return to daily activities. Unlike the more involved and lengthy process of ClearChoice’s traditional implants, Dr. Ferrari can typically place mini dental implants in one appointment. This is an important feature for patients seeking a quick solution for stabilizing dentures or replacing missing teeth and for those who are apprehensive about undergoing invasive dental procedures.
The simpler nature of the procedure and smoother recovery mean you can enjoy your new smile without the long waiting periods needed for conventional implants. Patients often need bone grafting surgery to prepare their jawbones for the larger size of these implants. This extends the treatment timeline by months. Additionally, ClearChoice traditional implants require 3-6 months of healing before the final restoration can be attached. Because the mini implant procedure requires significantly less healing time and fewer visits to the dentist, patients enjoy a more comfortable post-operative experience.
Mini implants are also small enough to be an option where traditional implants aren’t viable. Thanks to their versatility, patients who’ve already experienced jawbone loss can now access implant solutions.
Mini Implants Are More Affordable Than ClearChoice
Cost plays a crucial role for most patients when considering dental procedures. Mini dental implants offer a more cost-effective solution, often costing half as much as traditional counterparts. The streamlined nature of the procedure, the lack of extra appointments, and the absence of extra surgical steps like a bone graft contribute to this affordability. Opting for mini dental implants allows patients to achieve comparable, if not superior, results without the hefty ClearChoice price tag.
When you come in for your free consultation, our office will review all your payment options, from potential insurance coverage to financing options. We even offer an in-office savings program for those who need a little help getting started. Dr. Ferrari and his staff will help you find a way to make mini dental implants work within your budget.
Quicker Results and Less Healing Time
The near-immediate results that mini dental implants provide cannot be overstated. ClearChoice implants can take months to fully heal, during which time you must wear a set of temporary placeholder teeth and eat a soft food diet. With mini dental implants, your teeth heal fully in 2-3 weeks. Immediately after the procedure, you may experience some mild discomfort, but most patients feel back to normal within 48 hours. After a few days of careful eating, you can start to reintroduce all your favorite foods and enjoy a nutritious and delicious lifestyle without waiting months for your jaw to heal.
Greater Durability
For full arch tooth replacement, ClearChoice only uses about four implants to replace all your teeth—but with mini implants, more implants can fit in the jawbone to support the prosthetic. Think of it this way: which roof is sturdier, the one supported by just four beams or the one supported by 10? Also, 10 implants will stimulate your jawbone more effectively than four, keeping bone and tissue density strong and allowing you to maintain your natural face shape. Finally, more implants will spread the bite force more evenly among themselves, making it much less likely for any of them to break down.
