Mini implant
For denture wearers who have struggled with loose-fitting dentures,
Normandy Dentistry has a simple and affordable solution. A new,
excitingly easy procedure using mini implants will secure your denture in
place. Due to their smaller size, patients who were not candidates for
traditional implants, may be able to have mini implants placed without
additional bone grafts or surgeries.
The MDI (Mini Dental Implant) System consists of a miniature titanium
implant that acts like the root of your tooth and a retaining fixture that is
incorporated into the base of your denture, The head of the implant is
shaped like a ball and the retaining fixture acts like a socket that contains
a rubber O-ring. The O-ring snaps over the ball when the denture is
seated and holds the denture at a predetermined level of force. When
seated, the denture gently rests on the gum tissue. The implant fixtures
allow for micro-mobility while withstanding natural lifting forces.
