Meza Dental Introduces Trabecular Dental Implants to Costa Rica

Sarasota, FL, September 12, 2012 --(PR.com)-- Dr. Alberto Meza, a renowned Costa Rican cosmetic dentist and pioneer in dental tourism, has begun offering Trabecular Dental Implants. This is just the latest example that Costa Rica remains on the leading edge of dental care, and Meza Dental Care remains at the head of the pack of Dentists serving the North American dental tourism market.

“We are on the leading edge in dentistry, but we do not embrace all new technologies,” says Dr. Meza, a popular U.S. trained cosmetic dentist. "For instance, 'immediate load' or 'same day implants' were the latest fad a few years ago, but we never embraced them due to the poor efficacy. We only embrace time tested innovations that will help us to perform long-lasting dental restorations. After all, what good is a dental implant if it falls out after a few years?

"That is why we are so excited to bring trabecular dental implants to market. Trabecular metal is not new, but it is new to dentistry. It has been widely used in other applications to re-grow or re-enforce “spongy” bone structures in the human body. Many people do not realize that bone is a form of tissue, and not all bone is the same. Since jaw bone is comprised of cancelous bone (bone with a high degree of porosity), as opposed to cortical (compact bone), we are confident trabecular implants are going to be a great solution for many of our patients."

For many years, the only alternative to traditional two-stage dental implants were “immediate loads.” The biggest drawback of the traditional implants has been that clients have needed to wait four to six months before they could complete their dental restoration (the time required for the dental implant to osseo-integrate with the patient’s jaw bone). Now, with trabecular implants, a stable environment is created with dental implants that are ready to be crowned in less than 30 days. Dr. Meza says "It may not be immediate, but they will be strong, stable and long lasting. And since we never sacrifice quality for speed, it is a solid option for those patients who want to avoid two trips to Costa Rica."

“Our business model of providing a First Class dental tourism experience resonates in grand part due to our extraordinary level of care, service, and ability to remain the leader by introducing and adopting new dental technologies and procedures,” says Dr. Meza. He continues “Every time we see an opportunity to raise the bar higher, we do so; it not only helps our patients, it helps grow and mature the Costa Rican dental tourism market we helped take root many years ago.”
