Replace Your Missing Tooth With a Mini Dental Implant

annall • April 15, 2021

There are several ways to replace a missing tooth. One of the best is with a mini dental implant and a same-day dental crown. It offers many advantages over a dental bridge, one of the most common methods of tooth replacement.

A mini implant/same-day crown combination:

  • Avoids the need for a bone graft or similar procedure
  • Unlike a bridge, protects you from bone loss
  • Will last for many years, with proper care
  • Offers a faster recovery than a traditional dental implant

At our Columbia, SC office we perform many dental implant procedures, including mini dental implants that can be restored with crowns or other replacement teeth.

To see if you’ll be able to replace a missing tooth with an implant/crown combination, call Total Dental Care of South Carolina today at 803-272-4162.
