Small Diameter Implants for Low Bone Volume

Narrow diameter implants, also known as small implants, are thinner than standard dental implants and are ideal for areas with insufficient bone for traditional implants. These implants are used in locations where bone volume is limited, avoiding the need for additional bone regeneration procedures, and are particularly suitable for areas with lower bite forces. They provide a reliable solution for patients seeking to restore function and aesthetics in challenging cases.

Benefits and Uses of Small Diameter Implants

Smaller implants offer numerous advantages, especially in areas where standard implants are not suitable. Their small size allows for placement in tight spaces, making them ideal for specific situations where traditional implants may not be able to fit.

One common application of narrow diameter implants is in stabilizing full dentures. By strategically positioning multiple mini implants (typically 4-6) along the gum line, a stable base for the denture can be created. Instead of placing individual implants for each tooth, a whole arch of teeth can be supported by these implants.

Efficient and Economical Minimally Invasive

Discover the advantages of narrow diameter implants, which offer a minimally invasive approach. These small implants can be inserted directly into the bone through the gum without the need for incisions, reducing recovery time. Restorations can often be placed immediately after the procedure, saving time. In addition, narrow diameter implants are a cost-effective alternative to traditional implants, making them a popular choice for many patients.
