The Great Mini-implant in London SE1
24 / 03 / 2012
When dental implants were first invented many years ago, no-one then quite knew just how versatile they would become and how remarkable their impact would be in modern dental procedures. And what is even stranger in modern years out of all this implant work, the use of mini-implants, which were originally designed to pave the way for their bigger siblings, have now come into their own. The advance of technology has seen the treatment times of implant fitting fall dramatically, to the extent that a mini can be fitted in around ten minutes! Lasers and computers have made this treatment a precise science/art-form. The beautiful result is that mini-implants have found their own niche in the world of dentistry; firstly, they can provide the foundations for the replacement of smaller teeth in the mouth and help to hold in dental bridges that stretch over one or more teeth. But their uniqueness has been applauded by people that have to wear dentures around London SE1. With the placement of half a dozen minis in the jaw enables a customised denture to simply click onto to them and enable the wearer to retain the denture in the mouth like never before. The mini-implant, by nature, is also remarkably cheaper than the larger version so if you are one of the unlucky people that fits the bill, this could be the answer to all of your woes.
