Press Release – Complete Upper Dental Implants

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

Mr Jack Howard from Kentucky needed complete upper dental implants and fixed, permanent teeth.

Jack remarks about his treatment;

”Dr Enrique Yuen and his staff of professionals put the kabash on many to the criticisms I read regarding professionalism, customer service, and technology to mention a few when speaking of Peru and services. Over the past few months I have had full top dental implants, a root canal, two crowns, veneer, and hours of treatment by a completely professional and compitent staff. I have read about but never seen some of the technology until coming to the offices of Travel and Smile but what was most reassuring to me was the staff who not only were extremely professional but extremely supportive in what for me were some difficult situations that at times took hours.

I researched and found the place for dentistry. Monica the person who greets you in the office to Daniel and of course Enrque with a great team off assistants will take care of any of your needs. I would add the thousands of dollars that I saved, but I have to honestly say that I would come back to Travel and Smile regardless of the price as I am that satisfied.”

Invisalign Teeth Straightening – Clear, Comfortable & FAST!

Invisalign treatment in Lima, Peru

INVISALIGN, or ”invisible braces” are revolutionizing the way people straighten their teeth. Clear moulds are used instead of ugly wires and results are enhanced during record breaking times! Both these people in the photo are straightening their teeth, one with Invisalign and one with traditional wires. Which would you prefer?

A series of molds are used which are used to gently straighten out-of-line teeth over a set period of time as diagnosed by our Orthodontic specialist. It’s easy and effortless and you can even remove them for eating and special events such as weddings – which has never been done before with any other system of teeth alignment. Price for this treatment vary as do treatment times and a full consultation will be required to determine the best treatment for you.

Contact us today for more information or for a consultation.

Low Cost, World Class Dental Implants in Lima, Peru

Dental Implants are perhaps the most comfortable and longest lasting treatments for missing teeth. Dental Implants with us in Lima, Peru can be placed quickly by our Master Implantologist, Dr Coz and with the latest technology in ”Immediate Load” implants, you can have treatment complete with the final tooth all within a week.

The ”Immediate Load” procedure isn’t suitable for everyone, but if you have sufficient jaw bone density to support it, it is an excellent option. If you’re not suitable, a period of three months is required before placing the final tooth. This allows the implant post to become fully integrated with the jaw to support biting forces once the final crown is placed.

Either way, dental implants are the best option for replacing missing teeth. How much do they cost? We use the best and most recognized brands of implants around the world.

What’s the Cost?

Our implants start from just US$789! That’s around 1/3 the cost of the US, Canada and the UK. Plus, they all come with Lifetime Guarantees and certification, too – all for your added peace of mind.

Kids Dental Health!

We always advocate that it’s never too early to begin good dental habits, and that means being aware of dental issues from the ”baby” tooth stage, right up until our more mature years.

Most people don’t even think about dental health for children until they have a number of teeth in their mouth, but you might be surprised to learn that even babies need dental attention! Ask us about cleaning your babies gums and first teeth, dental issues with bottle feeding and do your best to  practice excellent dental health even for your babies. Good dental hygiene at this stage will help to prevent issues later on in life.

Getting Long in the Tooth? Read This!

In the ”good old days”, most people, as a matter of course, expected to lose their teeth as they aged. These days, we know that with proper dental care, there is no reason that you shouldn’t continue to enjoy your own teeth, no matter what age you are.

The key to good oral health in your twilight years is to establish good brushing and flossing habits early in life, to prevent decay and gum disease from deteriorating your dental health. Regular dental checkups are a must too, as not only do they give us the opportunity to check your teeth, but they also allow us to contribute to your total health as we check for periodontal (gum) disease, oral cancer and other diseases that can effect other parts of your body.

In today’s health conscious society, it’s shocking to hear that, according to the Acadey of General Dentistry, three out of every four adults over the age of 35 are affected by some sort of gum disease. We believe that this statistic can be reduced drastically by following some simple steps:

1. Brush with a flouride toothpaste twice daily for 2-3 minutes

2. Floss once per day

3. Have a dental checkup and professional cleaning every 6 months

4. Ask us about sealants that protect your teeth from bacteria that cause decay

In severe cases, gum disease can lead to loose teeth that eventually fall out, leading to a host of other expensive and possibly unpleasant tooth replacement options such as dentures and implants. Patients with osteoporosis need to be especially aware of this, as the bones holding their teeth in place are much more vulnerable than other peoples’.

Please talk to us about proper brushing and flossing techniques and remember that healthy teeth give a healthy, beautiful smile which is something that we are all entitled to.

Create a Naturally Beautiful Smile with Dental Veneers

If you would like to correct your slightly crooked, uneven or chipped teeth, or whiten and brighten teeth that are severely stained and discolored, then dental veneers could be the perfect solution.

Veneers are an excellent choice when considering correcting shape and color of teeth. We use the newest veneers available in dentistry called Direct Veneers which, unlike conventional porcelain veneers, require little or no removal of healthy tooth enamel. These often perform better than natural teeth, due to their unique stain resistant characteristics. So, if you love tea, coffee, wine and other staining foods and drinks, your new veneers will keep their original color for many years to come.

Veneers with www.PeruDental.com and Dr Enrique Yuen here in Lima, Peru are minimally invasive and a full set can be complete within just a few days. They’re a real work of art, a master piece you’ll be proud of for years to come.

Teeth Whitening Makes Your Smile Sparkle!

Your smile is the first thing people will notice about you – and we all want to make a good first impression, don’t we?

Whiter and brighter teeth give you a vibrant and healthy look. If you are not happy with your smile, teeth whitening may provide the solution.

Teeth Whitening Procedures Can Help:

• Lighten coffee, tea and wine stained teeth

• Remove cigarette and tobacco discolorations

• Correct yellowing in teeth caused by aging

Choices for Whiter Teeth

Dr Enrique Yuen, founder of PeruDental.com in Lima, Peru will advise you of which whitening procedure will be best for you. The following are two options for whitening your teeth:

In-office Teeth Whitening with Zoom, 45 minute Whitening System

Zoom 3 Advanced Power whitening is completed in just one visit – in fact, you’ll be in and out in about hour and your teeth will be 6-10 shades lighter than when you arrived! Zoom is safe, effective and fast – very fast!

At Home Dentist-supervised Whitening

We make you a custom fit, professional mouth tray and apply a whitening gel to each tooth indentation. You wear it for a few hours each night. As easy as 1, 2, 3.

These trays will be worn for between one and two weeks depending on how dark your teeth are. More severe stains can be improved with an extended use of the home whitening system or by using the in-office system together with the home system.

Flossing – a quick reference quide!

Improve your dental health and floss your teeth regularly to remove plaque and food buildup between them.

This is one effective way to successfully flossing your teeth:

1. Using a minimum of about 18 inches of floss, wind most of it around one of your middle fingers and the remaining floss around the same finger on the opposite hand.
2. Holding the floss tightly between thumbs and forefingers, guide the floss gently between the teeth, using a gentle rubbing motion. To avoid injuring your gums, never snap the floss into gum tissue.
3. When the floss reaches the gum line, curve it into a ‘C’ shape against one tooth. Gently slide it into the space between the gum and the tooth. Holding the floss tightly against the tooth, gently rub the side of the tooth moving the floss away from the gum with up and down motions. 
4. Repeat this method on all of your teeth, not forgetting the back side of the last tooth.
