I feel so well taken care of at this office! Dr. Calat and his team are friendly, professional, and attentive. I recently needed a tooth extracted, and even though I tend to be an anxious patient, I felt calm and informed throughout my procedure. The procedure itself and recovery period were completely painless, and the office was diligent about following up with me throughout my recovery. I wholeheartedly recommend this practice!

How Mini Dental Implants Differ From Standard Options
Traditional dental implants have been around for decades, but mini versions bring new possibilities:
- Only 1.8 to 3 millimeters wide (less than half the width of standard implants)
- Require minimal drilling into the jawbone
- Can often be placed without cutting the gums
- Usually need no stitches afterward
The smaller size makes a big difference in how they’re placed and who can get them. Many patients leave the dental office with new teeth the same day, something rarely possible with traditional implants.
Why Patients Choose Mini Implants
People select mini dental implants for several key reasons:
- Simpler procedure with less healing time
- Work well even with thinner jawbones
- Cause less disruption to daily life
- Provide immediate improvement to chewing ability
- Help prevent further bone loss in the jaw
- Eliminate the embarrassment of removable dentures
For older adults especially, the shorter procedure time and faster recovery make mini implants an excellent choice.
The Procedure
Unlike the months-long process of standard implants, mini implants typically follow this timeline:
- Morning appointment for placement of the small titanium posts
- Brief adjustment period while the mouth gets numb
- Careful positioning of each mini implant
Most patients report mild soreness that responds well to over-the-counter pain relievers. Many return to normal eating by the next day.
Caring for Your Mini Implants
Keeping your investment in good shape requires:
- Brushing gently around each implant twice daily
- Using a soft-bristled toothbrush
- Cleaning between implants with special floss or brushes
- Avoiding tobacco products
- Limiting very sticky or hard foods
With proper home care and regular dental visits, mini implants can last for many years.
