In which cases are Mini Implants Recommended?

Sometimes when traditional implants are very heavy for the bone density of the patient's jaw, the dentist recommends mini implants. This type of implant is most common used for snap-on dentures.

Being thinner than regular implants, it is necessary for the dentist to rely on other simpler and less invasive techniques.

Normally one of the advantages of mini implants is that they do not require sutures and that the number of regular visits is less than with traditional implants.
