Delete is my first preference, or possibly a redirect to Mini dental implant. "Minimplants" returns zero hits on PubMed. Only source cited at article is a link to a trademark registration, the owner of that trademark is the guy who has the Twitter feed name "@Minimplants". Reviews like PMID 19409331 make me think the device is a kind of Mini dental implant. Zad68 02:35, 27 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The stub seems to suggest that minimplants can refer to things other than minidental implants. Suggest merge minimplants (should be minimplant-singular anyway) into implant leaving redirect; and merge mini dental implant into dental implant leaving redirect also by the way- looks like this has been proposed since 2011 with no action.

Delete as purely promotional of a commercial neologism. -- Scray (talk) 00:20, 31 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
