New Mini / Midi implants

The NEW Mini/ Midi implants were designed byDr. Tariq Idris, in conjunction with OsteoCareTM. It's a stronger implant with a greater surface area than Mini Implants, along with a more substantial post to support fixed crowns. With the ability to incorporate a 'shoulder', they allow better oral hygiene and are suitable for both thinner and wider bone - varying in size from 2.3 - 4.3mm. Stable from day one, they do not require a surgical flap and they can be restored immediately - allowing a permanent crown to be fitted a few weeks later.

The new Mini/ Midi implants act like the root of your tooth, allowing a crown or denture to be securely attached. The advantages of using the unique Mini Implant technology include:

  • Available from as little as £1,500 per implant*
  • No surgery of the gum*
  • No drilling of the bone*
  • No stitches*
  • No waiting*
  • Fewer visits*

* In most cases there is a momentary perforation of the gum and outer surface of the bone. Typically the implants can be restored on the same day with a temporary restoration.

 
 

How do they work?

The placement of the implant is accomplished quickly and easily in a one-step procedure performed at our practice. Under local anaesthesia or light sedation, and employing precise and minimally invasive techniques, the implants are positioned into the jawbone. The process of 'OsseoExpression'TM then occurs almost immediately, which means that the bone is secured around the implant straight away. The head of the implants protrude from the gum and provide a solid foundation for securing crowns, dentures, or a brace.
 
 

Securing individual teeth with the new Mini / Midi implants

The new Mini Implants is an alternative system to provide replacement fixed teeth for those refused regular implants due to a lack of bone, or who simply cannot afford the cost of conventional implants. Once the implants are placed, a temporary crown (tooth) is usually secured to the implant on the same visit. A tailor-made porcelain crown is then fitted a few weeks later. Please note this technique is not recommended for the molar (back) teeth. Please see the sections on the Maxi and Conventional implants.
 
 

Securing dentures with the new Mini / Midi implants

One of the most effective uses of this dental product is the stabilisation of a lower denture. There are approximately two million people in the UK who are "edentulous" (literally meaning lacking teeth), struggling daily with prosthetic devices. Many suffer discomfort as a result of loose or ill-fitting dentures. Some withdraw from any type of social engagement as a result of wearing them. It is also not uncommon for family members to complain about a denture wearer's disagreeable breath as a result of food being trapped and decaying under their denture prosthesis. Successful placement of the Midi implants addresses all of these social and practical problems.

The head of the implant is shaped like a ball. The retaining fixture in your denture acts like a socket that contains a rubber O-ring. This 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 while the implant fixture allows for micro-mobility. Please note this technique is not recommended in the upper jaw. Please see the sections on Maxi or Conventional Implants.
