What is the difference between mini implants and regular implants?
Mini implants are narrower (about half the diameter), require less bone, and can often be placed in a single visit without incisions. They are less expensive but may not be suitable for replacing molars or supporting heavy bite forces. Regular implants are stronger and more versatile but require more bone and a longer treatment process.
