Did you get an allowance as a child? In many homes, children would receive a small cash reward for doing chores around the house. This both encouraged kids to complete their tasks and taught them an early form of budgeting. However, learning how to save your money is a difficult lesson that many children learn the hard way. And as an adult, this lesson isn’t any easier! Between bills, groceries, and other financial priorities, it can feel like there’s never enough money to go around. At the Mini Dental Implant Center of America in Springfield, MO, we’re dedicated to providing cost-effective solutions that reduce the stress that dental costs can add. With our affordable mini dental implants, we restore your smile without breaking the bank.

What Are Dental Implants?

Dental implants are metal screws that we anchor in your jawbone to help replace missing teeth. Once in your bone, these impalnts become remarkably secure thanks to their titanium composition. Titanium is a biocompatible material that interacts well with living bone. Once inside your jaw, these screws will bond to your jaw, creating a secure foundation for a crown, bridge, or denture restoration.

At the Mini Dental Implant Center of America in Springfield, MO, we use mini dental implants. These titanium posts are the smaller version of conventional dental implants, which are large-diameter screws that need a significant amount of jawbone for support.

Thanks to their smaller size, mini implants fit even in minimal bone. This allows many patients to avoid the typical bone grafting procedures that conventional implants require. Instead, we place mini implants in your jawbone with little trouble, where they will integrate with your bone to create a stable foundation.

Experience the Mini Dental Implant Difference

Thanks to their unique design, mini implants offer many incredible advantages that far surpass conventional dental implants.

Minimally invasive: To place mini dental implants, we use a minimally invasive procedure. Unlike conventional dental implants that require incisions and large drills, we only need to make a small pilot hole in your gums and bone to secure the implant in place.
One-piece structure: Mini dental implants have a one-piece design, allowing us to place them in a single appointment. While conventional implants have multiple components that require separate visits, mini implants have a simpler composition and placement, saving you time and money.
Immediate stability: Thanks to their minimally invasive procedure and unique design, mini implants support a restoration immediately after placement! Rather than waiting months for the implant to become stable in your bone, mini implants can anchor a temporary (or even final!) restoration the very same day.
Affordable price: With a sleek one-piece design, one placement appointment, and a simpler procedure, mini implants are about half the cost of conventional dental implants.

While not everyone is eligible for mini dental implant treatment, most patients are. Even if you don’t have enough bone to support a conventional implant, mini implants may still be an option for you.

Making Dental Implants Even More Affordable

At the Mini Dental Implant Center of America in Springfield, MO, we offer free implant consultations. When you come in for your appointment, we will perform a thorough dental exam and take 3D digital X-rays of your smile. With this information, we’re able to determine if you’re eligible for mini dental implants.

If you are, we’ll create a custom treatment plan and discuss pricing with you!

While mini dental implants are more affordable than their conventional counterparts, they’re typically not covered by insurance companies. To help with out-of-pocket costs, we work with third-party financing companies! Through these flexible financing options, you can split your costs into manageable monthly payments without breaking the bank.

With our financing plans, we make dental implants more affordable for all patients, including those on a budget.
