 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.
