Solutions for Multiple Missing Teeth
In this video, Dr. Aaron Bratton discusses how mini implants can be used to replace multiple missing teeth, even in different areas of the mouth, with a personalized treatment plan. Schedule a consultation at Atkins Dental Clinic today to find out if mini implants are the right solution for restoring your smile.
If you are missing multiple teeth, mini implants can still be an effective solution. If the missing teeth are in different areas of the mouth, each can be treated individually. If multiple teeth are missing within the same quadrant, we place enough mini implants to restore them, provided there is sufficient bone.
Before any treatment begins, we evaluate your X-rays to determine if mini implants are a viable option. If the case is uncertain, I send the X-rays to my laboratory for review. While I oversee the treatment plan, the lab technicians design and build the restorations, ensuring they meet the highest standards. Their expertise helps confirm whether the procedure is feasible, providing an added level of precision and confidence in the final outcome.
