What to Expect From Both
Here’s what you can expect from a traditional dental implants restoration. In the first stage, one or more dental implants will be surgically placed in your jaw. If you’re replacing just one tooth, you’ll only need one implant. If you’re restoring more teeth than that, you may need two or more implants. What makes traditional implants such a great option for qualified patients is their versatility—they can replace everything from a single tooth to a full row of teeth. What’s more, because the implant posts you’ll receive are made from biocompatible titanium, nature will eventually take over and the posts will bond with your jaw, creating a stable foundation for your future smile.
In the second stage of care, Dr. Torabi will attach your custom-made restoration, whether it’s a single tooth or a full denture. The results will blend in with the rest of your appearance and provide you with the functionality you’ve been missing.
Now, compare this to the process of having teeth replaced with mini-implants.
Mini-implants are used only with full dentures, and the procedure can be completed in just a single day. During the procedure, four small implants and a special retaining fixture will be put in place, with a denture attached on top. The procedure takes just a few hours, and you’ll leave Dr. Torabi’s Claremore dental office with a fully restored smile. You may even be able to enjoy a light meal with friends or family at your favorite restaurant.
