Dr. Joseph Santelli Addresses the Dental Needs of Baby Boomers
DATELINE: DUXBURY AND COHASSET, MASSâ?¦ Dr. Joseph Santelli, DDS, PC of the Center for Progressive Dentistry in Duxbury addresses the dental needs of the Baby Boomer population by offering free educational seminars about the wonders of Mini Dental Implants.
Dr. Santelliâ??s â??Purple Cowâ? Mini Dental Implant (also known as mini-implant) educational seminars are specifically geared toward the 55+ community. The one-hour presentations give a complete overview of who would be a good candidate for mini-implants; the mini-implant procedure itself as well as the cost of mini-implants. Dr. Santelli is the third person in the entire U.S. to have been awarded a Masterâ??s in Mini Dental Implant technology and he has made them his specialty. He is a member of the International Academy of Mini Dental Implants and is the only mini-implant provider in the area who does mini-implants as well as the follow up restoration.
â??Many baby boomers are just beginning to experience the dental issues that come with age. If a tooth needs a root canal, post and then a crown, very often mini-implants are the FIRST choice of treatment. The mini-implant route is less expensive and will last longer,â? explained Dr. Santelli.
Over 55 communities, retirement communities, libraries, non-profit organizations and other groups may arrange for Dr. Santelli to speak at no charge.
According to Dr. Santelli, â??The invention of the mini-implant is the â??Purple Cowâ?? of modern dentistry. There are still many dentists who are not aware of the ease and reduced cost of mini-implant technology. It is the modern, painless, quick and inexpensive way to replace one, some or all of the teeth.â?
With mini-implants, there is NO surgery involved and the implants are completed in one or two visits. They are an ideal option for those suffering from loose or sore dentures.
He continued, â??Essentially, a patient could walk into our dental spa wearing a denture and walk out with a full mouth of teeth, thanks to the innovation of mini-implants. Although mini-implant technology has been around for several years, there arenâ??t many dentists who hold certification in mini-implant technology, so for most of the general public, it is the first time they have heard about it.â?
