Denture Replacement Options in East Longmeadow

Benefits of Mini Dental Implants

Say goodbye to loose, uncomfortable dentures with one of the most rewarding advancements in modern dentistry: mini dental implants. This innovative system allows patients to eat, smile, and speak with confidence. In as little as one hour, 4-6 mini dental implants can be placed, and your dentures can be securely fitted over them, allowing you to leave the office with stable dentures that you can use immediately!

One of the great advantages of mini dental implants is the minimal post-operative discomfort, allowing for a quick and smooth recovery. Additionally, many patients who were not candidates for conventional implants due to insufficient bone or financial constraints can now benefit from this affordable and effective solution.

About Dr. Gregory Zirakian

Dr. Gregory Zirakian is a distinguished implant dentist serving the East Longmeadow, MA community. With a comprehensive approach to dental care, Dr. Zirakian treats patients of all ages, from young children to adults well into their nineties. While he offers a full range of general dental services, his primary focus lies in esthetic and family dentistry.

Dr. Zirakian is proficient in various esthetic and cosmetic dental procedures, including bonding, tooth-colored fillings, cosmetic porcelain crowns and veneers, cosmetic bridgework, root canal therapy, and cosmetic esthetic reconstruction.

Esthetic dentistry, which emerged in the late 1970s, enhances the natural appearance of dental treatments, addressing the aesthetic concerns associated with traditional dentistry, such as silver fillings or wire clasps on partial dentures. This field uses conventional procedures to achieve natural-looking results, while cosmetic dentistry focuses on elective procedures designed to enhance appearance. Both disciplines require a high level of clinical expertise and artistic skill, which Dr. Zirakian has mastered.

Dr. Zirakian’s educational background includes earning his Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) from Tufts Dental School in Boston. He further honed his skills at the prestigious Dawson Academy and through advanced training with Dr. Arun Garg at Implant Seminars.

Dr. Zirakian is dedicated to providing personalized dental care with an emphasis on aesthetics, ensuring that his patients enjoy both improved oral health and enhanced appearance. For those interested in exploring their dental options, Dr. Zirakian offers free consultations.

The Mini Dental Implant Advantage

Half The Size

Mini Implants are about half the size of traditional implants and, therefore, don’t require as much bone. With less bone needed, costly, painful, and time-consuming bone grafts are typically not required.

Significantly Less Expensive

In most cases, the mini dental implant procedure is significantly less expensive than a traditional implant case, saving you money.

Preserves Bone Structure

Immediate Results

Because they are less invasive, and don’t require the lengthy healing time of traditional implants, they can typically be loaded with crowns, bridges and dentures immediately.

Less Healing Time & Fewer Visits

Because mini implants are much smaller, placing them is a less invasive procedure—requiring less healing time and discomfort, and fewer visits.

No More Decay

Mini implants are made out of titanium—the same type of material that is used on artificial joints, and they are not subject to decay or periodontal disease.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Options Are Available For Missing Teeth?

For missing teeth, our practice offers a versatile and efficient solution with mini dental implants. Whether you’re missing a single tooth or multiple teeth or require replacement of an entire upper and lower arch of teeth, mini dental implants can address these needs in just one visit. This method is less invasive than traditional dental implant surgery, reducing discomfort and recovery time. Additionally, mini dental implants come at about half the cost of traditional implants, making this a more affordable option.

Do You Have Any Solutions To Secure My Loose Dentures?

Yes, we have an excellent solution for securing loose dentures: mini implant-secured dentures. This option utilizes mini dental implants to firmly anchor your dentures, providing a stable and secure fit. This means you can say goodbye to the discomfort and insecurity of loose dentures and welcome the confidence of a well-fitted smile.

What Is The Difference Between Mini Implants and Traditional Dental Implants?

Mini dental implants and traditional dental implants both serve the purpose of replacing missing teeth, yet they differ in several aspects. Mini implants are smaller and less invasive, making them ideal for situations with limited space or for patients with less bone density, and they typically come at a lower cost. Traditional implants, on the other hand, are larger and provide a more robust solution, especially for individual tooth replacement, but require a greater amount of healthy jawbone or potentially a bone graft. Understanding these differences is key, and we’re here to help you navigate these options.

Do You Offer Same-Day Dental Implants?

Absolutely, we offer same-day dental implants using mini dental implants! This means you can get your dental implants in just one day without the long wait associated with traditional implants. This quick process is ideal for those looking to bypass the typical months-long journey to new teeth. It’s a straightforward solution that gets you back to smiling confidently in no time.

Do You Offer Full-Mouth Reconstruction?

Yes, we do offer full-mouth reconstruction! Whether you’re dealing with a single missing tooth or multiple missing teeth or need a complete overhaul of your entire mouth, our full-mouth reconstruction solutions are here to meet your needs. This approach is tailored to reconstruct and restore your smile, no matter the extent of dental work required.

Do You Offer Fixed Bridges?

Yes, we certainly offer fixed bridges as a dental solution. Fixed bridges are a reliable and effective option for those looking to replace missing teeth. They are designed to fill the gap left by one or more missing teeth, anchored securely to the adjacent teeth or dental implants. This not only restores the appearance of your smile but also improves functionality in eating and speaking.

Do You Offer All-On-4?

Yes, we offer a fantastic alternative to the All-on-4 procedure, which we call “Fix-on-Six” using mini dental implants. This innovative approach is not only less invasive but also more cost-effective compared to traditional All-on-4 treatments. The Fix-on-Six method utilizes mini dental implants to securely anchor your new teeth. This process is designed to be less intensive, reducing discomfort and speeding up recovery time.

Do You Offer Snap-On Smile?

Yes, we do offer an excellent option for a Snap-On Smile with mini dental implant-retained dentures. These are a fantastic choice for those seeking a stable and secure dental solution. Unlike traditional dentures, these are anchored with mini dental implants, ensuring they stay firmly in place. This means you can enjoy all your favorite foods with confidence, without worrying about your dentures shifting or slipping.

What If My Teeth Can't Be Saved?

We provide dental extraction services. If you require tooth removal, we can expertly and safely extract your teeth. Additionally, we offer the convenience of replacing your missing teeth with a mini dental implant in the same visit. This streamlined approach not only saves time but also spares you the discomfort of multiple procedures.
