Mini Implants
More than 400,000 New Zealanders are edentulous (have missing teeth) and around 90% of this group report problems related to wearing dentures. Now, thanks to IMTEC mini implants, the life of these denture wearers is being significantly improved.
The implants consist of four titanium alloy implants that can be attached to the lower or upper jaw for the denture to snap into. This results in a strong, stable, durable and comfortable denture that can be easily removed for cleaning.
As well as making the wearing of dentures a much more pleasurable experience, in limited situations the mini implants can also be used to replace missing teeth. This means that you may be able to avoid wearing dentures altogether! The process of fitting the mini implants is very quick and straightforward and can be done under local anaesthetic during a single trip to the dentist. The treatment won't hurt your wallet either – the process is very good value for money, costing half the price of conventional implants.
If you think you would make an ideal candidate for IMTEC mini implants, pop into your local Lumino The Dentists practice to arrange a consultation with one of our many experienced dentists. If you are a candidate for mini implants, your Lumino dentist will either carry out this procedure for you, or will recommend a dentist who can.
