What Are Mini Dental Implants?
Mini dental implants (MDIs) are narrow-diameter titanium posts — roughly half the width of standard implants — that anchor directly into the jawbone through a minimally invasive, flapless procedure. Because of their smaller size, they can be placed without incisions, stitches, or lengthy healing periods. Most patients walk out the same day with a functional restoration.
