Full-mouth reconstruction with mini-dental implants
A note from the editor
Last October we introduced a new
department called "Show Your Work"
that gives Townies another opportunity
to do just that. Here, you'll find
straightforward case studies that your
fellow dentists take pride in.
Maybe they feel like they've finally
mastered a new technique they've
been working on. Perhaps they rose to
the challenge of a particularly tough
patient case. Or it could be that they
just want bragging rights for something
that, in their eyes, approaches
perfection.
If you've got a case you think might be
a great fit, shoot me an email:
sam@farranmedia.com. Be sure to
include a sentence that sums up why
this case is so special to you, to help us
review and select the best contenders
for publication.
One last clarification: This opportunity
is available to registered Townies only!
So be sure to update your member
information at Dentaltown.com before
giving us a shout.
Thank you!

MAY 2017 // dentaltown.com
After graduating from dental school, I was well-equipped
to treat the routine dental needs of my patients-root
canals, extractions, fillings, crowns and the like. Twentyfour years later, my practice has evolved to meet the
evolving needs of my patient population: Many patients
are missing teeth and may not be financially or medically
able to undergo the sometimes long and costly process
of conventional implants. What happens to patients who
suffer from loose dentures or missing teeth and are
unable to eat or smile comfortably?
This case study demonstrates how, because of their
minimally invasive nature, mini-dental implants can be
used for full-mouth reconstruction even on patients who
are severely medically compromised.
