How Do Traditional and Mini Dental Transplants Differ in Size?
When considering a dental implant, traditional ones are generally between 3 and 6 mm in diameter. Alternatively, mini implants are half the size of their conventional counterparts. Various advantages make mini implants a preferable option for some. For instance, those with lower bone density may find mini dental implants more suitable to support replacement teeth.
One drawback of using a smaller implant is that it may not be as durable as a traditional implant because it receives less support from the jawbone. However, the mini dental implants we offer at Calistoga dental office can provide a secure tooth replacement option.

Which Materials are Used in Dental Implants?
Calistoga Dental Group primarily provides titanium dental implants to patients. We understand how unique and valuable titanium is because it is the only metal that can comfortably integrate into the human body. As a result, the body will think that your new root (the titanium rod) is natural matter and will provide the same level of stability as the jawbone to a natural tooth.
