WatchMultiple Teeth with Mini Implants

Missing several teeth in a row? Mini implants at Dr. Raffi General & Implant Dentistry may fit

A permanent bridge held in place by mini dental implants is a gentler path for patients missing several teeth in a row, one that often skips the larger surgery and bone grafting traditional implants can call for. Because their diameter is smaller, mini implants are a particularly strong fit when the jawbone has already begun to shrink.

The video walks through what actually happens: once the area is comfortably numb, a series of mini implants goes into the jawbone along the gap left by the missing teeth. A custom bridge is then attached on top of the implants, bringing back full chewing function along with the natural look of a complete smile.

Placing mini implants is a gentler process than traditional implant surgery, which shortens treatment time and speeds up recovery. Most patients are back to eating and smiling normally within days rather than weeks.

A permanent, fixed solution is still possible even with concerns about bone loss or recovery time, so schedule a consultation if several missing teeth are on your mind. 3D imaging lets us plan your case precisely and walk you through whether mini implants are the right call, or whether a traditional implant bridge would serve you better.
