What If You Don’t Have Enough Bone for Dental Implants?

In this video, Dr. Ruedi Tillmann explains alternative solutions for patients who lack sufficient bone for traditional dental implants. Residents of Kaysville and Greater Salt Lake City, UT, can contact us today for a free consultation to discuss their options.

Many patients come to us hoping for conventional implants, but there are cases where this may not be possible. Factors such as insufficient bone density or the inability to undergo a bone graft make mini implants a better alternative.

Bone grafts are not always successful and may not be suitable for everyone. In situations where the bone is too thin for conventional implants, mini implants provide an effective solution. They can be placed in areas with limited bone and still offer strong support for a denture or a single replacement tooth.

Mini implants are a minimally invasive option that allows us to restore function and aesthetics even when traditional methods are not feasible. They provide reliable support, ensuring a secure fit for your denture or crown while avoiding the need for complex procedures like grafting. This makes them an excellent choice for many patients seeking a comfortable and functional dental solution.
