Attleboro, MA, November 30, 2021– Sterngold Dental reveals a new reason for general dentists, oral surgeons, and dental laboratory owners to smile more: it’s called STS™ .
STS™ is the short reference for Sterngold Total Smile™ , a comprehensive solution for restorative dentistry, made possible by Sterngold’s deep heritage and foothold in the industry, along with its suite of quality yet affordable products spanning the dental implant and attachments, dental supplies, and digital solutions categories. STS™ means a better handle on cost, time, and quality concerns, while delivering a swifter restoration of a beautiful smile for patients. Simply put, STS™ is a single source solution for a beautiful smile.
STS™ brings cost-effectiveness and higher margins
for the practice, along with a range of new, affordable treatment opportunities
for its patients. It also supplies the widest range of implant and attachment
selections with the advanced capabilities of digital dentures. How is this
possible? Gordon Craig, President of Sterngold, answers the question: “What we’ve done is combine our multiple
implant systems, such as the $99 All-in-1 TRU® and PUR®
conventional implants and the MOR®
mini implants, with our immense range of attachment options, and added
in our digital solutions. The result is a full suite offering composed of seven
customary services plus the ability to provide a custom solution. One of the
popular programs utilizing STS™ is our
Dental Lab Partnership initiative, taking off on STS™ : Implant-to-Crown
option.” (For a full list of STS™ options, download the flyer.)
Ultimately,
STS™ means smiles all around, especially
for the patient, who is expected to benefit from the price differential of the
quality treatment and prosthetic outcome. The segment that will derive the most
from STS™ is that of the small to medium
sized, independent practices and dental laboratories, who are vying for access
to top tier quality and more affordable pricing. Adds Gordon: “Because we are independent like those in
this segment, and manufacture our implants, prosthetics and the majority of the
components housed within the STSTM package, we are able to pass on
unrivaled savings to our customers. STS™
has been developed during the pandemic, recognizing our capabilities and
an unfulfilled need among our customers for a single source with affordability
as the differential advantage. We started
by sharing this concept in select
industry events and sales consultations with clinicians and dental labs.
The overall response was really positive, so we have now rolled it out globally.
We would like to let those in this segment know that they now have access to
the package.”
