Since the fifth century BCE, people have been captivated by the legend of the Fountain of Youth, drawn by the promise of eternal beauty and life from drinking its waters. Many historic figures were rumored to have looked for this mysterious source of lasting perfection and beauty. Take, for instance, the fierce military commander Alexander the Great or the Spanish explorer Juan Ponce de León. If only they’d found Hazzouri Dental first—offering the best restorative mini implants in Scranton—they might have traded their quests for a consultation!
Mini dental implants won’t literally turn back the clock, but they can bring back the look and feel of a healthy, youthful smile. If you’ve felt like your best smile was behind you, this simple procedure can help you feel confident again, often in just one visit.
How Missing Teeth Affect Your Confidence and Appearance
Your smile has an impact not just on your overall appearance but also on your lifestyle and self-confidence.
If you’re missing some or all of your teeth, you start to notice it in the structure of your face pretty quickly. Since the act of chewing keeps your jawbone healthy and strong, missing teeth can cause jawbone loss. As the jawbone deteriorates, you may notice facial sagging and wrinkles, which can make you look older than you are.
Aside from aesthetic differences, if you’re missing multiple teeth, you’re likely struggling to eat certain foods. Having an incomplete smile gets in the way of feeling like yourself and enjoying something as simple as dinner with friends and family. This takes a toll on your confidence.
We’re here to make looking and feeling beautiful easier than ever with our innovative dental solutions. Mini dental implants, in particular, are a reliable tool in aesthetic dentistry, combining function and fashion in a powerful way.
As the sole Mini Dental Implant Center of America (MDICA) in Scranton, PA, we are uniquely equipped to help you regain confidence with customized implant options that fit your needs, lifestyle, and budget.
The Transformative Power of Mini Implants
Mini dental implants have revolutionized dental restoration, making it possible for eligible patients to restore a radiant smile and youthful confidence in one visit. But how does that work exactly?
It all begins with a free consultation, where we discuss your treatment options for replacing a damaged or missing tooth. If an extraction is needed, we’ll schedule it along with the placement of your mini dental implant. We can typically perform both procedures in a single visit. After extracting the tooth (if needed), we create a small opening in the jawbone and gently place the implant. Then, we will secure a temporary dental crown so that you can leave with a complete smile the same day. At your follow-up visit, we’ll replace the temporary crown with a permanent one to complete your restoration.
The process is similar if we replace multiple teeth with a bridge or entire rows of top and bottom teeth with implant dentures.
Beyond immediately restoring your smile, dental implants can help maintain your jaw in the long term. These are endosseous implants, meaning we insert them into the jawbone. Once in the bone, the implants mimic the effect of a natural tooth’s root on your mouth. When you chew, the endosseous implant engages the jawbone just like a natural tooth would do. This stimulation helps preserve your facial structure by keeping the jawbone strong.
With mini dental implants, we can refresh your appearance and get you back to eating comfortably and confidently!
