Q. Are mini implants just another option when it comes to dental implants or do they do a different job entirely and are used for a different purpose when it coems to replacing mssing teeth?

A. No, in my opinion there are very few indications for mini implants. They were originally designed as temporary implants. The only place I would recommend them is to hold in a full lower denture only when finances are a major concern. Conventional implants are significantly better in all situations.
