Having Problems with Your
Dentures?
Imagine This!
Visit your dentist in the morning, have the
“Mini-Implant System” placed in less than two hours, then go out and
enjoy your favorite lunch. Eat comfortably, have a pleasant
conversation, laugh and talk with confidence. Your denture feels
secure and is being held firmly in place.
…and all of this at an extremely affordable
price.
Sounds too good to be true, but it is true.
How does MDI
Technology Broaden My Options?
Dental implant therapy has been one of the most
significant advances in dentistry in the past 25 years. Tens of
thousands of grateful patients bear witness to the benefits derived
from the opportunity to obtain a replacement for lost teeth that
restores their smiles and confidence. Several different types of
implants and restorations are available. The choice depends on the
amount of bone available, the patient’s general health and
restoration preference.
The computer and medical worlds are both
working hard to develop small and smaller components. In similar
fashion, a smaller version of the dental implant has been
successfully utilized in selected cases. These mini implants (1.8mm
diameter) enable your dentist to broaden the spectrum of patients
that can be treated. The Sendax MDI System was developed in order
to provide greater denture stability for those patients who cannot
withstand the rigors of conventional implant surgery, do not have
enough bone to allow for full-sized implants to be placed, or are in
on-going therapy from one prosthetic system to another.

What Are MDI
Implants?
The MDI System consists of a miniature titanium
implant that acts like the root of
your tooth and a retaining fixture that is incorporated into the
base of your denture. The head of the implant is shaped like a
ball, and the retaining fixture acts like a socket that contains a
rubber O-ring. The O-ring snaps over the ball when the denture is
seated and holds the denture at a predetermined level of force.
When seated, the denture gently rests on the gum tissue. The
implant fixtures allow for micro-mobility while withstanding natural
lifting forces.
How Are MDI
Implants Placed?
Placement of the implants is accomplished
quickly and easily in a process performed in the dentist’s office,
with local anesthesia or light sedation to help make you more
comfortable. Using a precise, controlled, minimally invasive
surgical technique, MDI Implants are placed into the jawbone. The
heads of the implants protrude from the gum tissue and provide a
strong, solid foundation for securing your dentures. It is a
one-step procedure that involves minimally invasive surgery, no
sutures nor the typical months of healing.
