    The Mini Implant Process

    What Are Mini Dental Implants?

    Smaller than a traditional dental implant, mini dental implants are usually about half the size. They often can be placed with a less invasive treatment, and can be used even if your jaw bone has deteriorated due to tooth loss. Drs Guerra & Pulsipher use mini implants to help hold loose dentures in position or to replace missing teeth.

    Mini Dental Implants Vs Traditional Implants

    Smaller In Size

    Significantly smaller than traditional implants, mini dental implants often don’t require extensive or painful surgery.

    Immediate Results

    Get your teeth right away with mini dental implants and avoid potential lengthy healing times of traditional implants.

    No More Decay

    Made out of titanium, mini dental implants are durable and not subject to decay or periodontal disease.

    Quicker Healing Time

    Mini implants offer a less invasive procedure, quicker healings times, little to no discomfort, and fewer visits to the dental office.

    Affordable

    In many cases, the mini dental implant procedure is more affordable than traditional implant cases.

    Preserves Bone Structure

    Mini dental implants can halt bone loss in cases where large portions of bone in your jaw were lost due to missing teeth.

    COMMON PROCEDURES

    Mini Dental
    Implant Solutions

    From regular check-ups to bridges and mini dental implants, our caring professionals will treat your family’s dental health needs throughout your lives.

    Replacing a single tooth with a single tooth implant does not endanger the health of the neighboring teeth. Dental implants integrate with your jawbone, helping to keep the bone healthy and intact. An implant will replace your tooth root, keeping the bone better preserved.

    Individual implants can also replace several missing teeth. Several missing teeth can also be replaced with individual implants. With this method, a dental implant will be placed at the site of each missing tooth, providing ideal replicas of your lost teeth. Multiple teeth may be restored with an implant bridge, which is a prosthetic comprised of three or more crown units, depending upon the number of missing teeth.

      This office and Dr. P were amazing. From the moment I walked in I was made to feel comfortable. Kyra took my X-rays abs explained what she was doing the whole time and then told me the Dr would be In to review things with me. He was very pleasant and wasn’t pushy about having procedures and left the choice up to me. The hygienist, Bailey is wonderful! She made sure that I was taken care of with my sensitivity during the exam and was the best dental cleaning I have ever experienced. I think we found our dental home in Bolivar!

      I just had my first appointment with Dr. P as a new dental patient. I really am happy with my experience. I like Dr. P as he was really nice and took care of my dental needs explaining thoroughly the plan of action. The office is beautiful, modern and clean! The equipment is state of the art and a very comfortable atmosphere. The Staff is Amazing! I want to give a shout out to the Awesome crew, Baylie and Brittany. The front desk staff rocks as well for making my appointment possible! I picked a great dentist! I highly recommend this dentist office, you can thank me later 🙂

      Nikki H.Happy Patient

      I am a 70 year old chicken when it comes to seeing the dentist. My experience with Dr. P and his staff was, under the circumstances, wonderful. They care about your comfort and see that you’re well prepared before the drill goes on. I just had a crown put on and the best part was the massage chair after the procedure. Gosh, maybe they need to use that chair a half hour before your appointment! This is the place to go for all your dental needs!
