Glidewell Laboratories Introduces the Inclusive Mini Dental Implant
A leader in the dental laboratory market has introduced a new mini dental implant.
The Inclusive Mini Dental Implant System provides the dentists all the components necessary to start and finish a high quality mini implant retained overdenture.
This package includes the final overdenture, four Inclusive Mini Implants, surgical drill, impression copings, analogs, O-ring housings and all model work. The Inclusive Mini Implant is also available for purchase individually. I anticipate in the near future a competitively priced Surgical Guide made from a Dual Scan CT.

A drill extender
Torque wrench
3 different size pilot bits
Inclusive Mini Implants are available in three diameters (2.2 mm, 2.5 mm, 3.0 mm) and three lengths (10 mm, 13 mm, 15 mm) and provide many benefits including: a minimally invasive surgical protocol, immediate loading and affordability. Mini implants can accommodate new or existing dentures, which are anchored to the exposed ball heads of the mini implants via a simple and effective O-ring retention system, providing edentulous patients new levels of comfort and confidence.
The Inclusive Mini Dental Implant comes in a heavy duty heat wrapped plastic bag. A glass vile contain the sterile mini implant. The carrier color denotes the size of the implant.
Green = 2.2mm
Orange = 2.5mm
Blue = 3.0mm
Another nice feature is the o-ring housing comes pre-loaded and includes an extra black o-ring. Several other lab support items are available such as a 25 pack of block out shims and lab analogs.
I anticipate good things for General Dentists who want to learn how to improve their patients lives with the security and comfort of a well thought mini dental implant system….
