Have you ever had to make an important decision dealing with a topic that was new to you? Maybe it was a major car repair, a plumbing issue, or traveling to a place you’ve never been. It can be scary sometimes to take a leap of faith without feeling truly confident about where you will land. At The Mini Dental Implant Center of America in Scottsdale, AZ, we understand that feeling. When deciding how to best replace missing teeth, some dental practices will try to give you the hard sell before giving you all the facts. Others might lure you in with a “complimentary consultation” that feels incomplete or has an upcharge partway through. Our practice offers a comprehensive, completely free mini dental implant consultation that will give you everything you need to know to make an informed decision about the future of your dental health.
What Are Mini Dental Implants?
A dental implant is a titanium post that we place in your jawbone to serve as a stable base for tooth replacement. They can support restorations like bridges, crowns, and dentures and provide greater stability and functionality than older, traditional restorations. However, conventional dental implants have certain drawbacks, like an invasive placement and lengthy healing time. At MDICA Scottsdale, we specialize in using mini dental implants because of their numerous advantages over conventional implants.
Mini dental implants are less than half the size of traditional implants—imagine the thickness of a toothpick compared to a pencil eraser—but they’re just as strong and durable. This small size allows us to place them without invasive surgical techniques or additional bone graft procedures. We only need to make a tiny pilot hole, which is painless thanks to local anesthetic.
After we place them, mini implants come with less discomfort and a much faster overall healing time than their larger predecessors. Mini implants only take about four to six weeks to fuse with your jawbone, while conventional implants can take six to eight months. Finally, their streamlined process and fewer follow-up appointments help mini implants to be significantly less expensive than traditional implants.
What’s Involved in Your Free Dental Implant Consultation?
At MDICA Scottsdale, our free dental implant consultation consists of a meeting with Dr. Seerat Mann or Dr. Todd Shatkin. They’ll give you a thorough oral examination, discuss your medical history, and discuss your needs, preferences, and financial options. You’ll also receive a complimentary 3D X-ray, which is used to determine implant placement strategy and who is a good candidate for mini implants.
During your initial visit to my office, which includes a free consultation, I conduct an X-ray and perform a comprehensive examination of your mouth. Following this assessment, I present you with various treatment options, and together we discuss them in detail, including the financing aspects. – Dr. Seerat Mann
Why Is a Consultation Important?
Our free consultation is a chance for our practice to get to know you and vice versa. You can finally ask those questions that have been on your mind for weeks and hear real answers. Our experienced dentists can see if you’re a viable implant candidate and give their professional opinion. And we can work together to find a dental solution that fits your oral health needs, smile goals, and budget. And the best part is that at MDICA Scottsdale, “free consultation” means free. You won’t be upcharged or hit with surprise fees, and we won’t give you a sales pitch—our mini implants and the results they provide speak for themselves.
What Happens After Your Free Dental Implant Consultation?
If you decide that mini implants are right for you after your consultation, our second meeting will be to place the implants and a temporary set of teeth. We can do this in one appointment, saving you time and money. Your third visit will take place a few weeks later once the implants have fused with your jawbone. Here, we’ll place the custom restoration and make any final adjustments, and your new smile will be complete!
