The decision to replace missing teeth with dental implants is an excellent investment in your oral health and appearance. Better than older versions of crown and bridge solutions, today’s dental implants and restorative solutions look, feel and function like natural teeth.
Today’s state-of-the-art restoration products and techniques cover all patient needs – whether one tooth needs to be replaced, or all of them. Unlike other tooth replacement options, dental implants are the most natural looking and feeling, and won’t slip or cause concern during talking, eating or laughing. They have been scientifically tested and used in the last three decades by qualified dentists and surgeons worldwide, and are now the standard of care for missing teeth.
No two people are exactly alike, and the same goes for solutions to dental issues that may require an dental implant. That’s why we provide recommendations based on your needs, and offer options that range from a single-tooth replacement to a complete set of new teeth. Your decision to choose a dental implant is an important one, and a decision for life. It’s also an option that can have a positive impact on both your health and wellbeing.
New materials include Ceramic and Titanium ceramic alloys. Titanium offers strength and ceramic offers enhanced gum tissue health. Unfortunately, not all implants go through the same testing or show the same long-term results. There are too many inferior systems being used. The unfortunate result being infection and inflammation around the implant within years of it being placed, at times leading to aggressive bone loss and the implant needing to be removed. For this reason Dr. Peterson limits his practice to the placement of Straumann® implants.
With decades of experience at the leading edge of dental and dental implant technology solutions, Straumann® is a trusted worldwide. To date, more than 14 million Straumann® dental implants have been successfully placed, with outstanding long-term results documented in more than 700 scientific publications. Now that’s something to smile about!
