The Mini Dental Implant Center of Florence, SC, led by Dr. Joseph L. Griffin Jr., DMD, is a specialized dental clinic dedicated to providing advanced solutions primarily focused on
Mini dental implants. While their name emphasizes mini implants, they are affiliated with and often operate under the umbrella of
Advanced Dental Center, offering a wider range of general, cosmetic, and restorative dental services.
This center is a proud member of the Mini Dental Implant Centers of America®, signifying their commitment to state-of-the-art equipment and extensive training in mini dental implant procedures. Mini dental implants are smaller in diameter than conventional implants, making them a less invasive option that often doesn't require bone grafting, reduces healing time, and can be more cost-effective. They are particularly beneficial for stabilizing
loose dentures, replacing single missing teeth, or addressing multiple missing teeth, especially in patients with limited bone density or those seeking a quicker procedure.
The clinic prides itself on offering flexible financing options, including no-interest in-house plans and third-party financing like iCare Financial and CareCredit®, to ensure quality
dental care is accessible. Their team of highly experienced dentists, including Dr. Griffin, Dr. John Thomas Hess, Dr. Daniel Visel, Dr. Eric Thiede, and Dr. Jonathan Thomas, collectively boast decades of experience and prioritize ongoing education to stay updated on the latest dental innovations. They are known for providing compassionate service in a welcoming environment, utilizing advanced technology like 3D imaging for precise treatment planning. Beyond mini implants, Advanced Dental Center offers general dentistry, non-surgical gum disease treatment,
cosmetic dentistry (including porcelain
veneers,
crowns, and bridges),
restorative dentistry, root canals, clear aligners, and full-size dental implants. They aim to provide comprehensive care for the entire family, focusing on both the aesthetic and functional aspects of
oral health.
