Teeth Implants have been around for a long time. Today they are being used within Cosmetic Dentistry more and more to replace missing teeth – Primarily due to their longevity, durability and natural appearance as well as functionality. Indeed, it seems Teeth Implants can offer many advantages over the more traditional options such as Bridges and Dentures.

However, like everything in this world there are certain aspects which could be termed ‘disadvantages’. Teeth Implants do tend to be the most expensive treatment option with regards to replacing missing teeth. There are those for whom ‘money isn’t an issue’, but for the most budget is ‘always’ a consideration. Another ‘disadvantage’ for some is the length of time Teeth Implants take before treatment is complete – Which can be anywhere from three to six months for the majority. Another, and probably the BIGGEST disadvantage for some patients is bone loss: For them it would rarely be advisable to opt for Teeth Implants: Regardless of time or money factors.

Mini Dental Implants – The advantages….

Mini Dental Implants have their advantages – For patients looking for a less expensive alternative to Teeth Implants, Mini Dental Implants can provide that alternative. For patients in a hurry, the treatment can usually be completed within hours not months: The treatment for Mini Dental Implants is much less invasive so recovery is fast - Which usually makes them a viable option even for those patients suffering bone loss. Indeed, Mini Dental Implants certainly have their advantages. Nevertheless, they too have their ‘disadvantages’.

The Disadvantages….

Mini Dental Implants do not last as long as Teeth Implants nor are they as strong – For example, they cannot be used to support Fixed Bridges and Dentures whereas Teeth Implants can. In addition, patients are prone to experience similar problems with Mini Implants as they would with Cosmetic Dentures – For example, they can only be used on the lower arch of the jaw: And they can click (move) which can be uncomfortable for those who experience it. In the short term Mini Implants offer an alternative: Teeth Implants offer the long term solution.
