What If I Don’t Have Enough Bone for a Dental Implant?
In this video, Dr. Thomas Baggett, III, reveals how a 3D X-ray can change the story for patients told they don’t have enough bone for implants and why mini dental implants are often still an option.
Approximately 60% of patients missing teeth are told they lack adequate bone for traditional dental implants. However, that’s not the end of the story. Using a CBCT 3D X-ray, we can more accurately assess bone availability.
In our experience, up to 90% of these patients are still candidates for mini dental implants, even when traditional implants are not an option.
