MINI IN TROUTMAN, NC

Troutman is a friendly Iredell County town between Statesville and Mooresville with steady residential growth, and when it comes to mini dental implants, the community turns to Dr. Haigney at Lake Norman Oral & Facial Surgery in Huntersville. Mini dental implants are narrower than standard implants and are often used to stabilize lower dentures or replace small teeth in areas with limited bone width.

Many of our mini dental implants patients travel from Troutman — a drive of only about 25 minutes — because they value the combination of expertise and personalized attention we provide. Their smaller diameter means less invasive placement, often without incisions or sutures. Many patients are candidates even when they lack the bone volume for conventional implants.

With over two decades of surgical experience and fellowship training at Emory University, Dr. Haigney brings an exceptional level of skill to every mini dental implants case. Placement is typically completed in one visit under local anesthesia, and your denture can often be adapted to snap onto the mini implants the same day. Troutman patients benefit from his dual board certification and FACS fellowship credentials.

Your journey to a better smile or improved quality of life starts with a single call. Troutman residents can reach us at (704) 987-3132 or request a consultation online. Our 25-minute proximity from Troutman makes expert mini dental implants care genuinely accessible.

Words cannot express enough, how wonderful, caring and professional Dr. Haigney and his staff are! After being rushed to the Huntersville hospital with an orbital fracture, broken nose and other facial damage, Dr. Haigney rushed me into surgery (on his day off I must add) and corrected all my problems. I only wish all doctors cared as much about their patients and their recovery as Dr. Haigney and his staff did. Thank you so much for everything! Your attention and compassion has helped me make my recovery as comfortable as possible. 5 star service!

Frequently Asked Questions

Mini Dental Implants Questions & Answers

Have questions about mini dental implants near Troutman, NC? Here are answers to the most common questions from patients in the Troutman area.

What are mini dental implants? +
Mini dental implants (MDIs) are smaller-diameter implants (typically 1.8-3.3mm) compared to conventional implants. They are designed to stabilize dentures, replace small teeth, or serve as temporary anchorage for orthodontic treatment. MDIs require less bone volume, involve a less invasive placement procedure, and often allow immediate loading.
Who is a candidate for mini dental implants? +
Mini dental implants are ideal for patients who lack sufficient bone for conventional implants but want to avoid bone grafting, current denture wearers seeking better stability, and patients who prefer a less invasive procedure. They are particularly beneficial for elderly patients or those with health conditions that make traditional implant surgery less favorable.
How do mini implants compare to regular implants? +
Mini implants are about half the diameter of conventional implants and are placed with a minimally invasive technique that often requires no incisions or sutures. They typically cost less and heal faster. However, they are best suited for stabilizing dentures and replacing smaller teeth — for full tooth replacement in high-stress areas, conventional implants may be recommended.
How long does the mini dental implant procedure take? +
Mini dental implant placement is remarkably quick — typically less than an hour for multiple implants. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia and involves minimal discomfort. In most cases, your denture can be stabilized on the mini implants the same day, so you leave our office with an immediately improved fit and function.
