Mini Dental ImplantsMini Dental Implants

Implant – titanium alloy or other implantable material

Implant Dimensions (<2.5mm diameter)

Fused Abutment (for additional strength)

Atraumatic Placement (minimal surgery)

Crestal anaesthesia (no regional block)

Transmucosal placement (no flaps)

Implant placement with (a single pilot hole of defined size) e.g. <1.5mm

Immediate Loading

IndicationsIndications

1. Immediate stabilisation of a fixed or removable prosthesis

2. Transitional stabilisation of prosthesis (during conventional implant “no-load” healing period)

3. Immediate support for compromised natural teeth (Periodontal Disease / Endodontic Problems)

4. Interim abutment for failing fixed or removable prosthesis

5. Orthodontic anchorage applications

6. Compatible with all existing implant systems

7. Provisional repair of a broken prosthesis

The Implant PackageThe Implant Package

The MDI Implant suspended from a plastic cap in the glass vial. Once the pouch is opened the vial can be placed in a surgical tray awaiting implant insertion.

The Implant PackageThe Implant Package

The MDI Implant can be carried to the mouth utilizing this cap.

Implant Delivery SystemImplant Delivery System

1.1mm drill1.1mm drill

Pilot Drill Pilot Drill This is the only drill necessary

Hole depth is usually

one third to one half the length

of the chosen implant

Step 1Step 1Pilot DrillPilot Drill

Step 2Step 2Implant Insertion ProcedureImplant Insertion Procedure

Use plastic cap and housing to deliver implant

Implant may also be delivered by the finger driver

Insert implant into pilot opening

Rotate clockwise with downward pressure

Rotate until firm bony resistance is felt.

Thread the implant until it becomes difficult to turn.

If no significant resistance is met prognosis is poor the site lacks the required density for predictable success.

Step 4Step 4Ratchet WrenchRatchet Wrench

The Extension may be useful when the clinician is attempting to access an MDI implant between two natural teeth.

Use of Ratchet WrenchUse of Ratchet Wrench

Use in small, carefully controlled increments. If great resistance is encountered pause momentarily between turns. This will allow the bone to adjust to the implant.

The finger on the top of the ratchet wrench ensures control of the ratchet and ensures correct seating of the implant

Use of Ratchet WrenchUse of Ratchet Wrench

Seated ImplantsSeated Implants

Ideal length of final seating should allow abutment head to protrude from tissue. No threads should be visible.

Close lightly in occlusion

Allow acrylic to polymerize

Chairside relineChairside reline

The cleaned and dry denture is filled with cold-cure acrylic and allowed to polymerise until it is not runny. The denture is then seated and the patient is instructed to close lightly in centric occlusion

Finishing ProceduresFinishing Procedures

Remove elastomeric shims

Trim flash

Fill any minor voids or discrepancies

Finish denture borders and polish

Perform final occlusal equilibration.

It is important that the shims are always removed. The denture is relieved of flash and any voids are filled.

A reline procedure and occlusal equilibration completes the process. The patient is then instructed in denture placement, removal, and oral hygiene.
