Dear Reader,
_The quest for an improved appearance driven by the media’s portrayal of beauty
has dramatically changed dentistry from a need-based to a want-based practice. Patients’
demands and expectations are high, and clinicians are continuously challenged to acquire
innovative techniques to satisfy this need. One important part of providing aesthetic
dentistry is to incorporate acceptable biological technology for long-term survival, function,
and aesthetics based on the minimally invasive concept.

Dr So Ran Kwon
Co-Editor-in-Chief

This concept entails a detailed diagnosis and treatment planning with attention to
function and aesthetics. Furthermore, aesthetic treatment requires mastery of the art of
understanding various types of personalities with different expectations for treatment.
Proper communication will not only enhance the dentist–patient relationship, but also
provide greater acceptance of treatment planning. The evolution of digital technology has
created exciting opportunities for improving this communication process and facilitated
a smooth workflow, from diagnosis to the final treatment and maintenance phase. In this
year’s autumn issue, we have included two special articles about digital smile design that
will enlighten the reader about the specific protocol used for an aesthetic digital smile design
and demonstrate how this concept can be applied to your daily work, providing you with a
new means of communication.
As a member of the Health Technology Committee at the University of Iowa’s College
of Dentistry, I perceive that the digital smile design workflow transitions well to the
widespread use of CAD/CAM technology. Given the success of CAD/CAM approaches in
the clinical setting, computer-assisted learning or simulation systems are being introduced
into dental education too. These systems are promoted for their ability to facilitate individual
learning by providing objective and consistent feedback. It is expected that incorporation
of this digital technology into the curriculum will have a great impact on aesthetic dentistry
in the future.
In this issue of cosmetic dentistry, we also feature beautifully illustrated and documented
articles that provide the solutions to improving aesthetics in the anterior region based on
the minimally invasive concept and a multidisciplinary approach. I hope you will enjoy this
issue and apply your new knowledge successfully to your daily practice.

Yours faithfully,

Dr So Ran Kwon

Why dentistry needs
branding
Author_Amanda Maskery, UK

_Owning a dental practice or group has always presented challenges, but the marketplace
has never been more crowded than it is now.
With an ever-increasing level of choice for patients, it is more important than ever for dental
businesses to stand out from the crowd. While
we of course all know the value of providing a
first-rate customer service, and that will always
remain the most important factor, how many of us
recognise the importance of creating and building
a brand?

“...it is more important than
ever for dental businesses to
stand out from the crowd.”
Generally, in dentistry, branding has not been
regarded in the same way it is in the corporate

06 I cosmetic
dentistry

2_ 2015

world, where multi-national businesses expand
on the strength of their brands. But now, with the
growth of dental corporates and multi-practice
groups, branding is becoming an increasingly important factor. That is not to say that branding is
only the domain of the big players. Creating a brand
which is unique and people can identify, talk about,
recommend to others and remember is just as
important for a single practice, and in some situations even more so, where there are other local
competitors for existing and potential clients to
choose from.
Effective branding is also important when looking to expand, franchise or sell one’s business. When
dentists are adding another site to their existing
portfolio, doing so under a brand will enable people
to know who is moving into their area, and can help
give confidence that this is an established dental
business taking over their local site. One example
being a business in North East England I act for, the
Burgess & Hyder Dental Group, who now operate
eleven clinics across the region under their brand.


[7] => Standard_300dpi
practice management _ branding

They are welcomed into each area as their brand is
widely known, as is the quality associated with it.
Equally in franchising, the importance of a
strong brand is crucial to enable a business to thrive
in other areas relies on an existing strength of
reputation. Through being part of that recognisable
brand, patients will know that each site under that
umbrella will offer the same levels of service and
quality. Another of my clients, Damira Dental, has
recently rebranded from Aspire Dental Care, and
is pursuing a franchising model under its new
and fresh identity. The business, which has 14 sites
across the South of England, has amassed a strong
reputation during its eight years in operation, and
the strength of its service coupled with its branding
will allow that to be replicated across the UK.
The creation of a brand identity, which can help
support the expansion of a business, can also be of
great importance when it comes to selling. It is much
easier to market a business which is well known and
has invested time and effort in standing out from

I

the crowd. To a potential buyer, they are important
factors in instilling the confidence to take on a site
in a new territory.
In this day and age of dentistry being an increasingly competitive business, distinguishing oneself
from the many other players has never been more
important, and is something that must be given due
consideration._

_The Digital Smile Design (DSD) protocol
developed by Dr Christian Coachman is an important part of daily work at our practice. It is an

integral way of viewing the patient that clearly
improves the quality of the treatment planning,
as well as the functional and the aesthetic results.

An important aspect of the DSD
concept is that the patient is
shown what his or her smile
will look like after treatment
in an emotive presentation. In
this manner, we can easily convince the patient to accept the
proposed treatment plan and
encourage him or her through
the perfect, immediate facial
integration of the mock-up.

head. It is important to note the
line joining both eyes. I often see
that both eyes are not on the
horizontal line. These parameters
should be taken into consideration for future measurements. One
needs to check the parameters
again in the case of treatment for
cranio-mandibular dysfunction.

I use the slit-lamp stand (used
by ophthalmologists) to hold the
patient’s head in the optimal 3-D
position because it keeps the patient’s forehead and chin perfectly
still. I have learnt that this procedure is more convenient for taking
the patient’s measurements during the workflow (Figs. 1a & b).

I use frontal photographs for

a new procedure for capturing the frontal photographs. In addition to general examination,
choosing the initial photograph is essential, because the DSD process starts from this point.

First of all, it is necessary to observe how the

In the following, I will present my practical
work with the DSD concept in different cases
without discussing the smile design process in
detail. I can confirm that the digital workflow is
very helpful in all steps and cases of aesthetic
treatment, because it saves time and yields better results in horizontal/vertical plans without
extensive corrections.

_Conclusion
In this short article, I have
presented a new method of capturing the frontal photographs
used in the DSD protocol from
Dr Coachman. These changes
can help standardise the photographs captured in the various steps of the DSD process
and can enhance treatment
quality.

_Case presentation
The four cases illustrate a new method of
capturing frontal photographs.
The first case demonstrates the preparation of
six IPS e-max crowns (Ivoclar Vivadent) on teeth
#13–23 (Figs. 2–7). The second case presents
the mock-up for the treatment plan presentation
for a patient with cranio-mandibular dysfunction (Figs. 8–10). The third presents full-arch
restoration with Zircon/IPS e-max crowns in the
upper jaw (Figs. 11–14). The last case shows the
mock-up in a patient with chronic periodontitis
(Figs. 15–19).

_Virtual planning and digital wax-up
Having introduced the fundamental tenets of

I move on to a step-by-step description of Aesthetic
Digital Smile Design (ADSD) in Part II.
_Import and adaptation of images: after having acquired the video frames that statistically capture
the dynamic phases of the smile and after having
imported all the intra- and extra-oral photographs
in the manner described in Part I, the smile designer, as if he or she were an architect, undertakes
true and accurate mapping of the face and the
smile, observing the peculiarities according to
focal length. The aesthetic analysis (macro, mini

12 I cosmetic
dentistry

and micro) to which it makes reference is based
on values and parameters derived from Powell,
Goldstein, Rufenacht, Lombardi, Arnett and
Chiche, Pinault, Ricketts, Fradeani and others,
and the aesthetic dentist can use these values
and parameters with rulers, set squares and goniometers. The full face images of the patient also
involve an analytical observation of the portrait
and therefore hair and skin colour, make-up, pose,
etc. are important. After being imported, these
factors will be processed in the manner described
below.
_Verification of orientation and exposure of the
subject photographed (Fig. 18a): the imported
images must be verified on the basis of the quality

of the shot, exposure, sharpness, etc., technical
factors that most software packages can correct
and improve, and some of which the Digital
Firmware camera cauìn correct itself. Practice to
acquire greater familiarity and skill will prove
useful to the smile designer.
In addition to the qualitative factors, the correct
orientation of the patient’s face is absolutely essential. Some software on Mac operating systems
allows rotation of the image with a simple movement of the fingers. In general, however, it is possible to trace a bi-pupillary plane that the software
will recognise as the horizontal plane to which to
make reference for adapting the image.
Another efficient method, with a dual function,
is that of using the cropping grid. This offers the
possibility of cropping the photograph to centre the
image for use in ADSD. It permits us to align the bipupillary plane horizontally to check the symmetry
in relation to the sagittal plane.
There is another simple but efficient way: increasing the zoom on the photograph. The pupils

I

Fig. 18c

will be more detailed and thus, by rotating the
photograph, it will be possible to take as a reference
point the upper edge of the software window,
on which to verify the pupillary alignment. Later on,
it will be possible by scrolling the image towards
the top to examine the mouth and the teeth to
verify the occlusal plane.
_Mapping of the macro-aesthetics (face): having
decided on the correct position of the face for a
detailed aesthetic analysis and after a digital
analysis, it is indispensable to mark the face and
the smile with reference lines and areas, verifying
symmetries and asymmetries (Fig. 18b). The first
thing to do is to mark the reference points and
morphological determinants (face marker); these
should be saved in the project from the photograph because they are fixed anatomic topographical points in both the extra-oral and intraoral soft tissue, obviously bordering on the teeth
and gingivae. From now on, it is essential to save
the various ADSD projects. In this manner, we shall
have immediately at our disposal the cardinal
points of the topographic anatomy on which we
shall later base the proportions of the face in terms

of vertical and horizontal dimensions and the
golden ratio analysis.
_Mapping of the mini-aesthetics (mouth and
smile): from the macro-aesthetic focal length, we
can come closer to select the perioral and intraoral zone where it is necessary to carry out
the virtual simulation after a careful dento-labial
analysis (Fig. 18c).
The photographs taken statically with closed lips
in relaxation, the lips spontaneously half-closed or
the lips in a smile while pronouncing the phonemes
“/m/” and “/i/” can be compared to video frames:
from the recording of this data, we can evaluate
movement, the dynamic curvature of the lower
lip in relation to the maxillary anterior teeth, the
position of the central incisors, their exposure and
the breadth of the smile well delimited by the width
of the labial corridors.
All of these factors are relevant to the smile
design. It is also fundamental to verify the relationship with closed lips between the labial
vermilion (analysed both frontally and in profile)
and the labial dimensions useful for defining and
comparing the vertical dimensions of the face,
eventual losses or excesses of substance, bruxism, atrophic jaws, dental alignment, micro- or
macrodontia, malocclusion or even simple loss
of lip fullness, which is currently of great aesthetic
interest not only clinically, but also and above all
in the media.

Often the multidisciplinary approach to a clinical
case entails a preliminary examination by the plastic surgeon to establish the aesthetics of the labial
profile. The plastic surgeon, who has to speak in
favour of possible plastic surgery to the profile or
the like, sends the patient to the dentist for a clinical evaluation of the dental–skeletal ratios, which
is comparable with the aesthetic analysis of the
entire profile of the face (Powell’s aesthetic triangle,
Ricketts’ aesthetic plane, etc.). A dento-facial aesthetic analysis thus becomes a fundamental pillar
for the co-operation between the specialists in the
facial aesthetics medical team (Fig. 1 in Part I) to
allow a predictable diagnosis and a treatment plan
based on a multidisciplinary vision, considering the
fact that the soft tissue of the lower third of the face
is supported by and moves by sliding on the hard
structures (bones and teeth).
In this regard, ADSD can be of help for analysing
the lateral thickness of the hard tissue, particularly the position of the anterior teeth, their
inclination and their emergence profile. Indeed,
it is possible to perform digital image editing
analytically on a millimetre grid based on the
reference points from the mapping of the facial
profile. The simple superimposition of the images
and the implementation of protocols or complementary examinations (virtual 3-D orthodontic
simulations; vto; cephalometric analysis; dental
design related to the thickness of veneers, overlays, prosthetic crowns, recontouring, etc.) can
process virtual plans, in which it is possible to pre-

dict the future position of the lips and vestibules
(Fig. 19).
_Mapping of the micro-aesthetics (intra-oral):
the iconography of the analysed face includes the
study of photographs taken with lip retractors in
place (micro-aesthetics). The focus of this type of
image is the close-up of the mouth, the details of
which are relative to and parameterised according
to the horizontal and vertical lines traced on the
patient’s face. Our virtual project will centre on the
occlusal plane ideally parallel to the bi-pupillary
plane, and the main vertical lines (i.e. the median of
the face, inter-incisal of the teeth, subnasal area,
etc.).
The intra-oral mapping is thus a simple magnification of what has already been traced on the face.
In practice, on our computer desktop, we will have
a map in which there are very distinct regions,
including outlines, ridges and depressions characteristic of the dento-facial morphology.
_At this point, all we have to do is to start tracing
lines (outlines; Figs. 11a & b in Part I) on the intraoral photographs, passing over the gingival margins, papillae, and interproximal margins of the
central incisors, lateral incisors and canines (Digital Dental Design). In order to achieve a symmetrical drawing, the lines and contours of the teeth can
be duplicated to create a mirror image. In this way,

I

it is possible to obtain the positioning of the forms
on the contralateral teeth. Among the lines used,
it is very important to insert a line corresponding
to the ideal aesthetic curve, which will have a
value directly proportional to the position of the
occlusal plane.

_Paste or overlay the images taken from the Dental
Digital Photo Database or model a filling of the
outlines. In many cases, it is not strictly necessary
to draw the teeth, since often the images of the
teeth are copied, shaped, moved and positioned
on the dental arch (Digital Dental Calibrated Transposition).
_Position the teeth by reducing the opacity to place
them with greater visibility in the desired positions. Opacity enables one to better visualise the
underlying images when using tools for the superimposition of images, is an option in all photograph-editing software and can easily be adjusted
in percentage.
_Adapt and proportion the teeth in space (dimension and alignment) by using the images rendered
semi-transparent by adjusting opacity comparable to the previous opacity (Fig. 18d).
_Save the images where the transparency level
enables us to calculate it as a superimposition
(Figs. 20a & b), where the points of departure and

the data approximates the clinical reality of the
subject photographed.
_Verify and modify the gingival architecture concerning the aesthetic component and tissue ratios.
The positioning of the zenith, papillae and cervical
parabolas represents an absolute value in aesthetic analysis for planning. It is particularly sensitive data useful for deciding on therapy with
the periodontist.
_After finishing the positioning of the teeth and
gingivae, shape them morphologically according
to the customised aesthetic “plan”, bordering on
the aesthetic dental composition (Fig. 18e).
_Every image editing step relating to the simulation must be saved in the software format
so that no data is lost to allow modification at
a later date. The same must be done for JPG and
similar formats in the patient’s file, re-naming
them in a sequential manner, which permits
a more reliable and revisable back-up for the
smile designer and the aesthetic dental team,
and permits a better method of communicating
the various therapeutic possibilities to the
patient. It also provides essential information
for checking the positioning of the prototypes
(Figs. 20c & 21a–c).

arrival can be seen and where the sublabial dental
composition can be seen (i.e. superimposing the
micro-aesthetic images with the mini- and macroaesthetic ones, and being able to observe above
and below the labial and perilabial soft tissue).
Indicate and record on the photograph the unit
of measurement chosen for the conversion scale
of the software so that the data approximates clinical reality. If the measurements were previously
according to an analogue or digital scale, you will
be able to obtain optimal indications as regards
reference points. For example, the position of the
maxillary central incisors can provide information
about the distance between the incisal edge or
cervical margin and the subnasal or bi-pupillary
line. Therefore, remember to indicate and record
on the photograph the unit of measurement
chosen for the software conversion scale so that

_At this point, we have at our disposal the digital
wax-up, which we can transfer to the dental
technician so that he or she can create an actual
diagnostic wax-up, which once photographed
can be inserted into the oral cavity. Note that,
where it is already possible to transfer the ADSD
file into CAD, the CAM phase will produce a model
that is useful for reducing the time and synchronising the methods implementing the protocols.
By decreasing the opacity of the image and working on the transparency, we can check whether
the virtual records and indications conform to
the analogue model.
_If everything corresponds, it is possible to make
modifications then to continue with the direct or
indirect mock-up, which necessitates the preparation of a silicone key to accommodate provisional
material to be adapted to the teeth or a workpiece
produced by the dental technician without it being
necessary to adapt the material to the teeth, such
as composite veneer, resin and PMMA.
_Having positioned the aesthetic model in the
oral cavity, it is inspected and approved with
the patient, correcting any individual or functional
details from the point of view of occlusion, facial expressions and the dento-labial relationship,


[17] => Standard_300dpi

which can easily be tested using phonetic tests.
In this phase, as well as giving the patient the
opportunity to look at himself or herself in a mirror, it is very useful to use the camera again, since
the recording of the physiology of the smile in
relation to the phonetics and facial expressions
may become the subject of further live 3-D analysis of the patient. The more information we send to
the dental technician, the more it will be possible
for him to observe the patient and update himself
or herself on the analysis being carried out. While
the dentist is in his or her surgery, the technician in
the laboratory can watch the video clips, analyse
the photographs and communicate via the telephone or video-conferencing on Skype. All this offers many advantages to this protocol. Being able
to dispel any doubts will give greater satisfaction
to the dental team and result in clinical success,
clearly demonstrated by the aesthetic harmony
in the smiles of our patients.
_Once the mock-up has been approved with the
consent of the patient, who will have been the
first critical spectator of and commentator on the
video clip, one can take another traditional dental
impression or take an impression using an interoral scanner (optical impression). During the video
playback, the patient is able to observe peculiarities about himself or herself that he or she would
not be able to see using only a mirror, the first being
seeing himself or herself in profile through images
that are not static and precisely because of their
dynamic nature correspond to spontaneity and
naturalness.
_Carry out digital smile morphing of the images step
by step to demonstrate and transmit the actual
simulation corresponding to virtual planning.
This phase is of great interest and effect for the patient because morphing, being shown sequentially,
appears to be like a film. This procedure is carried
out as far as the superimposition of the images
processed during the first analytical aesthetic
phase up to the related functional models inserted
into the oral cavity before the definitive restoration.
_From the analogue phase of the model, we move
on to the digital phase to produce the prosthesis
with CAD/CAM procedures (these images can be
further analysed in the virtual planning phase;
Figs. 22a & b).
_In the case of particular work procedures in which
software-assisted implantology techniques are
used, one may also have at one’s disposal a second model in PMMA, diagnostic or surgical guides
especially for implant structures, etc.

I

_The final step in the implementation of ADSD in
the CAD/CAM protocol is the placement of the definitive restoration in the oral cavity (Figs. 23a & b).
The outcome of the multidisciplinary approach
should confirm the predictability concerning the
aesthetic and bio-cosmetic integration of the
prosthesis.

_Conclusion
The detailed analysis of the smile and its project,
indispensable for the formulation of an aesthetic
clinical diagnosis, is a fundamental part of the delicate approach to the patient, the true protagonist
of aesthetic dentistry. Today, the operator has at
his or her disposal new non-invasive means of formulating the treatment plan; digital dentistry and
image-editing software are now part of a dentist’s
armamentarium. Furthermore, the entire treating
team being advanced in the use of instruments and
technologies for diagnosis and communication
makes an excellent marketing tool for dental
services. ADSD is a simple and economical way of
offering the patient a predictable plan that can be
visualised immediately or at least at the second
appointment to demonstrate the aesthetic and
functional changes possible with treatment with
the aid of corresponding models. It is also a tool
for transmitting all the information necessary to
the entire treating team in the multidisciplinary
approach. Let us hope that a new professional
figure may soon establish himself or herself in the
world of dentistry, the smile designer, a new way
to communicate._

‘No-Prep’ adhesive restorations:
another way to deal
with aesthetic deficiencies
Author_Dr Didier Dietschi, Switzerland

_Introduction
The use of ceramics in the form of veneers or
crowns was, for a long time, considered the only
satisfactory and durable solution to the aesthetic
deficiencies of the smile, in young as well as adult
patients. This hegemony of ceramics which, for that
matter tends to linger, is favored by the dental industry that invests significant amounts of money to
promote its materials and new technologies, without always showing a lot of consideration for the
biomechanics of the healthy tooth.
The sheer aesthetic criteria must, therefore, be
weighed against the biological and mechanical
fundamental principles of the natural tooth in order
to ensure the longevity of the restorations on one
hand, and preserve the vitality and the integrity of
the dental organ on the other hand. Thus, these
considerations have been encouraging us for a long
time to consider direct bonding techniques as a first
choice alternative for the treatment of aesthetics
deficiencies of the young smile especially, and in
general, every time the extent of the defects allows
it.1–6
The improvement of the aesthetic properties of
restorative composite materials based on the model
of the natural tooth5–9, also permitted to make direct
restorations available to everyone, since they are
no longer the prerogative of gifted clinicians trained
to complex stratification techniques, inaccessible to
the general practitioner.
Indeed, several systems have been developed
during these past ten years, building on the ‘Natural
Layering Concept’, consisting of only two basic
layers (dentin and enamel) and an appropriate
shade guide. The clinical protocols logically followed a simplification and an increase in reliability,
which bodes well for our profession, always under
economic pressure. Moreover, clinical results in the
medium and long term about the use of direct composite as an aesthetic correction material, proved to

18 I cosmetic
dentistry

be reliable.10–12 The goal of this article is, therefore,
to present two clinical cases that illustrate the direct
therapeutic approach and the aesthetic potential of
composite systems based on the ‘Natural Layering
Concept’.

_Clinical cases
Case 1—Diastema closure
This first case presents a simple application of
direct bonding for diastema closure in a young patient also showing a dark dentin shade, as well as
a mild fluorosis especially visible on incisal edges
and canine tips (Fig.1). Given the age of the patient
(15 years old), it was decided not to treat the fluorosis, which would have made whitening necessary,
but also critical in view of the risks of sensitivity
(Figs. 1–4). The treatment was carried out under
rubber dam to ensure the quality of the bonding in
the proximal areas, juxta-gingival and also for safety
and comfort of work. The enamel surfaces were only
prepared by sandblasting (aluminum oxide 25 μm)
before phosphoric acid etching (H3PO4 35–37 %)
for 45–60 seconds, given the fluorosis. The bonding
procedure was carried out with a multicomponent
system (OptiBond FL, Kerr) before the direct application of the composite in two layers, plus
the application of an effect shade (inspiro system,
EdelweissDR).

The stratification started with a layer of dentin (Body i3, inspiro) on the distal surfaces of the
upper lateral incisors and on the mesial face of
the right canine. A semi-opaque white effect shade
(Ice, inspiro) applied on the dentin layer enabled
to imitate the fluorosis stains and to improve
the restoration mimicry; (Figs. 5 & 6). A layer of
enamel (Skin White, inspiro) allowed to complete the restorations and perfect their aesthetic
integration. The ‘Natural Layering Concept’ was
followed to carry out this treatment, based on
a bi-laminar application of the composite and

according to the classification of Thilstrup and
Fejerskov) (Figs. 12 & 13). A preliminary orthodontic consultation had led to the recommendation of
an essentially restorative solution to this problem.
In addition, the relative complexity of this case suggested the preparation of a diagnostic wax-up and
a guided intraoral mock-up in order to confirm the
therapeutic choice and allow an aesthetic preview
(Figs. 14 & 15).
The treatment was also realised under a rubber
dam, using mainly interdental matrix, a silicone key
and a caliper for the control of the new dimensions
and dental proportions (Figs. 16 & 17). The reconstitutions were carried out by applying three shades
like for the first case (dentin: Body i2, effect shade:
Azur, enamel: Skin White, inspiro) (Figs. 18 & 19).
The treatment was performed over two clinical
sessions for comfort reasons. Figures 20 and 21
summarise the positive aesthetic impact of the
treatment, as well as the stability of the result two
years later (Fig. 22).

Fig. 9

The difference between the two cases illustrating
the versatility of bonding lies essentially in the
diagnostic phase, which was more thorough for the
second treatment.

_Reliable and aesthetic results
Fig. 10

The use of direct composites has thus become
unavoidable in aesthetic dentistry in almost every
treatment of the young smile and during aesthetic
transformations of no or little restored teeth. This is
a very positive evolution of conservative dentistry,
supported by the aesthetic improvement of the materials and the simplification of clinical protocols.
This article summarises the indications and advantages of the concept of the ‘Natural Layering
Concept’ to reliable and highly aesthetic results.

(Figs. 7–11).
Case 2—Extensive reconstruction of the smile
The second case presents a more extensive and
complex application of direct bonding, but nevertheless based on the same clinical protocol. This
case concerned a 17-year-old patient showing a
hypodontia of the four upper incisors and also
a generalised mild to moderate fluorosis (Type III

another option to choose. The direct composite
veneering system COMPONEER both improves and
simplifies the time-consuming freehand technique for
major front tooth restorations (Fig. 1). Polymerised,
prefabricated composite–enamel shells can improve
the final quality, while their basic anatomical shape
allows dentists to work up to 40 per cent more efficiently. The customisable shells are completely free from
air inclusion, which improves marginal adaptation. The
homogenous material with a thickness of only 0.3 mm
bonds 100 per cent to the processing composite.

_Different systems
In general, three basic systems are normally used
for restoration of front teeth:
_Direct freehand technique with composite;
_Direct CAD/CAM technique (Cerec);
_Laboratory-fabricated veneers.

_Introduction
Aesthetic considerations are obviously very important when it comes to highly exposed areas, i.e.
in the restoration of front teeth. Patients increasingly expect a perfect appearance, which means increasing demand for improved aesthetics. In many
cases, this can be difficult to achieve in direct
restorative dentistry. The emphasis usually has been
on the preparation of restorations that are invisible
at normal speaking distance.

Traditionally, dentists used either the established
freehand technique to correct the shade and the
shape of a tooth or they opted for classic ceramic
veneers. Swiss dental specialist COLTENE developed
and created an innovative system that gives dentists

Fig. 3

Large-scale freehand restorations require time,
skill and shaping. However, the direct technique is
less invasive and more economical, which makes it
attractive to many people. Even so, indirect techniques are often used for restorations because they
are more likely to be successful. Major problems
with the conventional direct technique are difficulties with shaping margins, management of the
top enamel layer and anatomical shaping. Because
of the nature of the materials microporosities are
common, which often means faster discoloration
and problems with appearance. The COMPONEER
direct veneering system with its combination of improved materials, specially designed equipment and
detailed instructions broadens the range of indications for the direct technique. COMPONEER moreover sets new standards for economy and quality.

Fig. 4


[25] => Standard_300dpi

Fig. 5

The basic principles of the freehand technique have
not changed. However, the technique has been simplified and improved. The following example shows
some of the most important steps.

_Application
After defining the indication and the diagnostic
goal, the teeth that required restoration were defined. In this case the caries was to be treated from
canine to canine in the maxilla and the shape, shade
and axial tilts were to be corrected (Fig. 2). The enamel
shells are available in various sizes and two different translucent shades: a neutral ‘Universal shade’
and a light ‘White Opalescent’ shade, which is more
suitable for a youthful mouth. With the appropriate
dentine composite positioned behind the shells any
desired combination of shades can be created.
The tooth shape is selected with a COMPONEER
Contour Guide (Fig. 3). The shape in the Contour
Guide is placed over the tooth that is to be restored,
with the blue-transparent colour offering an optimum contrast to the selected tooth. The enamel
shells can also be test fitted on the teeth or temporarily cemented with uncured composite to assess where and how much the composite veneer
shell requires customisation. Corrections that require grinding can also be marked at this stage.
A rough disc at low speed without water cooling is
the best tool for correcting the shape of the shell. In
general, a larger shape is preferred to cover marginal

Fig. 8

I

Fig. 6

Fig. 7

regions and to allow as much scope as possible for
customising the shape.
The specially developed holder is ideal for handling the shell (Fig. 4). The label on the primary package can be removed and filed with the patient file for
documentation. Dry working is essential for the best
results. The classical rules do not apply for preparation. The minimum coating thickness of 0.3 mm
means that the surface only requires minimal reduction (Fig. 5). In some cases, the enamel is simply
roughened and there is no defined preparation.
Etchant Gel S is applied to all enamel and dentine
areas for bonding and evenly distributed with the
brush. The curing time on enamel is 30 to 60 seconds
and on dentine 15 seconds, then the area is sprayed
for 20 seconds. In the basic principle, the Total Etch
method is used with One Coat Bond, which is easily
filled and offers better wetting with a nanohybrid
composite. The One Coat Bond is applied evenly
on enamel and dentine and left to cure for at least
20 seconds. Then transparent matrices are placed
in the interdental spaces to prevent adhesion of
the teeth.
The bonded surfaces are pre-cured for 10 seconds.
The unique microretentive surface of COMPONEER

nation with the fixing composite is a 100 per cent
bond, which means that there is only one homogenous coating of composite on the tooth, thereby
increasing the strength of the final result and reducing the tendency to discolour. For an appropriate
aesthetic success SYNERGY D6 is recommendable,
which is ideally matched in shade to COMPONEER.
It can also be used with other systems, in which
case testing the shade result before use is highly
advisable.
If it is necessary to remove fillings first,
COMPONEER can be applied with the corresponding dentine mass and filled from the palatal direction after the initial lightcuring. This can also be
done for tooth extensions or diastema closure. On
the other hand, cavities can be filled beforehand
with dentine mass to establish a homogenous base.
Enamel mass can be used for shape corrections or
simple shading corrections. Too much enamel will
make the restoration grey and too transparent. The
composite is applied to the side of the composite
shell that is to be fixed with a suitable instrument,
e.g. the included MB5 spatula (Fig. 7). The composite
is also applied to the tooth to prevent air inclusions.
Then the COMPONEER is carefully placed in its final
position with constant gentle pressure by the placer
(Fig. 8).

The placer has been specially developed for
positioning veneers. The working tip is a silicone
knob, which provides ideal force distribution. For
complete front tooth restorations, I recommend
starting with the two central incisors. With the shell
held in position, large residues are removed and
the composite is shaped to match the margins. The
light-curing process is not started until the correct
position of the veneer has been verified. Then obvious residues are removed or the preliminary contouring is carried out. Finishing and polishing strips
can be used for the proximal regions. Flexible discs
are the best tools for shaping interincisal angles.
Due to its smooth anatomical structure it is possible

Fig. 13

to individually characterize the surface or to adapt
the shape to the face, bipupillary plane or lip line
(Figs. 9 & 10). Microbrushes used without water are
ideal for the final polishing to achieve the optimum
high gloss (Fig. 11). The complete homogeneity of
the composite shells means that the final finishing
is in no danger of bringing unwanted porosities to
the surface (Figs. 12 & 13). A glossy composite surface of the highest quality for longlasting aesthetics
is the final result. The COMPONEER, manufactured
from high-quality composite, can be considered
as aids for shaping. They are primarily used for
making the complete anterior region of the teeth
more attractive and guarantee an easily achieved
and high-quality result. At the same time, they
promote efficient working and reduce treatment
time by as much as 40 per cent. This is good for
the dentist and also more comfortable for the
patient.

_Conclusion
The innovative composite veneering technique
optimises and simplifies restorative dentistry and
offers new options for function, economy and
aesthetics that benefit both patients and dentists.
COMPONEER are more than simple veneering shells,
they are a complete treatment system that extends
the range of indications from gap closure, extending incisors to the correction of discolouration and
quick single tooth restorations._

I case report _ restoration of endodontically treated teeth

Anatomical pin:
A clinical case report
Authors_ Profs. Frederico dos Reis Goyatá & Orlando Izolani Neto, Brazil

_Introduction
Endodontic treatment of teeth with significant
coronal destruction is a very common clinical procedure in the restorative clinical practice. When we
are faced with this clinical situation, there will be an
eminent need for the use of intra-radicular retainers
to obtain greater stability and retention of the
restoration to the remaining teeth.1, 2
The use of an anatomical pin is proposed for
the rehabilitation of anterior teeth with extensively
compromised root canals and with significant loss
of dentine tissue.3 In this restorative method, in

masticatory function and aesthetics.5 In addition,
the fibreglass pins have a more uniform distribution
of tension in the occlusal and radicular regions
compared with metal pins.6 Etching and silanisation
of the pins are of the utmost importance for promoting interfacial adherence, especially in the region
prepared for the core.7,8

Anatomical pins have an extremely favourable
prognosis in cases of fragile roots due to loss of
dentine structure and they contribute significantly
to the rehabilitation of the tooth in terms of both

was isolated with mineral oil and the compound
resin was applied (Fill Magic NT Premium, Vigodent/

the aid of a #1/2 Suprafill spatula (SS White).
After filling of the conduit with resin, the Exacto pin
and the pre-silanised accessory pins (Silano, Angelus)
were inserted with the application of an adhesive
(Fusion-Duralink, Angelus; Figs. 7–9). Next, the

Finally, the coronal reconstruction was performed
with the previously used compound resin in incremental portions and photoactivation was conducted
(Figs. 10 & 11). A marking was made on the most
incisal portion of the pins to guide the subsequent
cropping of the pins (Fig. 12). The anatomical pin was
then removed and the final photoactivation was
performed for 40 seconds (Fig. 13). Soon after, the
pin was adapted to the remaining coronal structure
(Fig. 14).

_Conclusion

Fig. 25

After the preparation phase of the anatomical
pin and coronal portion of the core with compound
resin, preparation for adhesive cementation to the
remaining tooth began (Fig. 15). Acid etching of
the pin was performed for 30 seconds, and then it
was washed and dried. The silane was then applied
(Silano) for 20 seconds, as well as the adhesive
(Fusion-Duralink) with subsequent photoactivation
for 20 seconds (Figs. 16–18).
After the anatomical pin had been prepared, acid
etching was performed on the remaining tooth for
20 seconds, followed by washing and drying it lightly
to leave the dentine moist (Fig. 19). The dentine primer
and the adhesive (Fusion-Duralink system) were applied
and then photoactivated for 20 seconds (Fig. 20).
The cementation was done with auto-polymerisable resin cement, waiting a period of five minutes
for the cement to chemically set (Figs. 21 & 22). Once
the cementation of the anatomical pin was finished,
the adhesive was applied to the coronal portion and
photoactivated for 20 seconds, and the compound
resin was applied in incremental portions for creation
of the core (Figs. 23 & 24).

The anatomical pin constituted a clinical alternative for coronal and radicular reconstruction of
endodontically treated teeth with significant destruction of dentine. In addition to rehabilitating the
tooth, this clinical approach promotes a more balanced distribution of masticatory forces without compromising the remaining tooth structure, minimising
the risk of radicular fracture. Moreover, this restorative alternative provides the possibility of an aesthetic
result with the use of a metal-free full crown._

_Tooth mobility is a clinical finding that indicates several difficulties regarding the treatment
possibilities of the patients affected. Regardless of the
mobility’s cause, periodontal disease, occlusal trauma
or a combination, the prosthetic rehabilitation of such
patients is challenging. As this case report shows, conventional single-unit prostheses, such as full-ceramic
crowns, may solve the aesthetic problems. The aesthetic outcome may be satisfactory at the beginning,
but in the medium term the soft tissue will continue
to retract. At the same time, the main problem will not
have been resolved. Mobility, especially in cases of untreated periodontal disease, will proceed despite the
prostheses, which will eventually lose functionality,
and a new treatment plan will be needed.
Periodontal treatments have priority over every
other treatment. Depending on the attachment loss,
tooth mobility can persist, requiring a long-term stability solution. In this case report, the clinical examination found a tooth mobility of Grade II for teeth
#12–23 as a result of an attachment loss that persisted even after successful conservative periodontal
treatment. As mentioned, fixed prostheses are not an
alternative, and fixing the teeth with a bridge would
only accelerate further attachment loss, although it
would reduce the occlusal load. A removable denture
was not an option for the patient. An implant solution was thus deemed the only acceptable treatment.

A removable temporary denture was not an option for
us and therefore we decided to replace each extracted
tooth with an implant with immediate loading.
In such cases, surgeons have to deal with tooth
loss, epithelial proliferation, bone resorption and loss
of the periodontal ligament. In this case, we could
clearly see in the pretreatment analysis that major
bone resorption had occurred both horizontally and
vertically. The bony defects affected more than one
wall, but the bone resorption around the root was not
infiltrated with soft tissue.

_Clinical and radiographic findings
The clinical examination found severe periodontal
defects with a screening index of Grade IV, pocket
depths up to 4mm and tooth mobility. The functionality was very limited and the aesthetic situation
unsatisfactory. The radiographic findings confirmed
that all four maxillary incisors and the left canine
needed to be extracted (Figs. 1 & 2). The patient had
a low scalloped gingiva with a middle thick gingival
biotype, rectangular teeth and a bright smile.

A removable denture was not acceptable, nor
was a temporary or definitive denture. Although the

gingiva to prevent scar formation through vertical
cuts at the mucosa. The low vestibule made a splitthickness or periosteal pocket flap the less logical
choice. Mobilising soft tissue from the lips too,
through other flap designs, would have caused functional limitations, suture tension and a second gingival surgery to reposition the coronally transpositioned soft tissue. The wound margins were cut back
to remove excess epithelium and the bone defects
freed from soft-tissue ingrowth (Figs. 7–10).

_Surgery
With a wax-up on the situation model, an optimal
form was created to support and manipulate soft
tissue during the healing phase. At the same time,
the temporary bridge functions as wound coverage
if primary closure is not possible (Figs. 3–6).1–4

In the next step, teeth #12–23 were extracted.
The flap outline preserved the papillae of the adjacent teeth by an incision at the papilla base. Owing
to the interproximal bone defects, papilla raising in
this region would have led to severe recession. The
vertical bone defects were obvious after raising a
full-thickness flap. A releasing incision was made
only mesiodistally at tooth #12 and only in attached

The horizontal bone loss was moderate. The implants were placed slightly sub-crestally. Although
the gap between the implants and buccal plate was
due to the resorption of approximately 1–1.5 mm and
the buccal plate thickness of less than 1 mm, we
decided on 3.8 mm implants, leaving a 1.5 mm gap
from the buccal plate.5–10
The inter-implant space and the buccal plate
were augmented with a combination of allograft
and xenograft materials. Autologous bone obtained
with a bone scraper was placed directly on the implant surface and covered with a mixture of allograft
and xenograft materials. A pericardium membrane
was used as barrier (Fig. 11).

The anatomy of the maxillae and the low vestibule did not allow primary closure. To protect the
augmentation and the membrane from proteolytic
resorption, we placed two layers of collagen tissue
fleece above the membrane. Through the collagen
fleece and the protection of the provisional bridge,
free granulation of the extraction socket was expected after two weeks (Figs. 11 & 12).

of convex or concave prostheses, soft tissue can be
manipulated in the direction desired for aesthetic
reasons (Figs. 15 & 16).13–16
The final crowns showed great results. The papillae
and pseudo-papillae filled the interproximal space.
The interproximal contact had to be deeper and wider
than normal in order to compensate for the previous
vertical bone loss, especially in regions #11 and 12.
Nevertheless, no black triangles could be seen, the
patient was satisfied and it was expected that with
the proper hygiene the aesthetic outcome would be
optimised in the next several months. Therefore, there
was no need to use gingival ceramics.

_Discussion
In a periodontally compromised situation, it is
important to decide whether a curative periodontal
treatment offers satisfactory long-term results. As
was the case on this occasion, an extraction at the
crucial time helps us to preserve what we have, use
it to the maximum for implant surgery and risk no

case report _ implant treatment

further bone loss or recession. Any other procedure
would have led to a two-stage surgical approach and
probably to a removable prosthesis.
The patient’s thick biotype, particularly the low lip
line, was very favourable. The quantity of soft tissue
was evident. Tension on the flap closure was prevented through the surgical protocol and free granulation of the wound. The bone quantity ensured
primary stability of the implant. The immediate implantation provided stability for the augmentation
and reduced the amount of material required. The
positioning of the implant allowed us to create an
optimal emergence profile, making complicated softtissue procedures unnecessary.17–19
Through the positioning of the implants and
the free granulation of the extraction wound, we
enhanced the soft tissue, a major advantage for the
re-entry and prosthesis.20–22
The implants placed have microgrooves of 1 mm in
height on the implant neck. This laser-manufactured
design imitates biology and promises improved cell
adhesion to this surface. Such modern designs, combined with the advantages of platform switching,
result in high-tech products. Modern crestal bone
maintenance works by means of the protection of the
crestal bone. When implants are placed sub-crestally
or crestally, a soft-tissue ring is built up on the platform to protect the bone below. When implants are
placed supra-crestally, the implant neck designs secure the crestal bone below through soft-tissue fibre
attachment to their necks, implants can be placed
closer to each other, cases like this can be treated successfully with single implants, and fibre attachment
to the surface and between the implants secures the
crestal bone, building a natural barrier.23, 24
In cases in which primary closure is not possible
or mobilisation of adjacent soft tissue through other
flap designs is not desired, temporary prostheses are
essential. The soft-tissue manipulation begins from
the very first moment and is crucial for the aesthetic
outcome.25–27 Owing to the implants used and the
immediate loading, the soft tissue did not have to be
manipulated. The implant system allowed us to take
the impressions without having to remove the abutments. The continuous removal and insertion of
implant components may introduce bacteria under
the soft tissue. Every aesthetic try-in could also be
performed on the initial abutments. In this protocol,
we only removed the temporary abutments once the
fixed single-unit crowns had been fabricated.
The clinical situation at the point of implant loading
with the crowns showed optimal soft-tissue quality
and quantity. No individual abutments were needed.

The aesthetic achieved was more than satisfactory,
especially regarding the soft-tissue outcome.13–15
The combination of these biomaterials forms part
of our standard augmentation protocol and is well
documented. The results of guided bone regeneration
are predictable and can be planned, even in case of
major defects. The structure of the combined biomaterials is very important. Rocky and edgy particles help
to establish internal stabilisation at the augmentation
area. Often, external stabilisation with pins or screws
is unnecessary. The porosity of the particles is defined
by their biology. This is the reason that we do not prefer alloplastic biomaterials and take advantage of the
benefits of allografts and xenografts through their
combination. These are the requirements of modern
biomaterials, including of course osteoinductivity
and osteoconductivity.28–30

_Conclusion
Periodontal disease is frequently a limiting factor
in oral implantology, but there are situations in which
periodontal disease presents no contra-indication for
implantology. Prerequisites for similar procedures are
an understanding and knowledge of biology, surgery
and prosthetics. There are no algorithms for such
procedures, rather the treatment outcome depends
on proper diagnosis, analysis and planning for every
individual patient and the selection of the right implant system and biomaterials. As the presented case
has shown, modern implantology provides all of the
tools for successful implant treatment._

parler (When the teeth talk).1 Because I was most
intrigued by the findings of my French colleague,
I started to observe these relationships and
document them. I encouraged my patients to
talk about their troubles and problems that did
not appear to be overtly dental. In this manner,
psychosomatic medicine2, 3 has inconspicuously
become part of treatment. It helps patients who
are healthy biochemically, radiologically, etc., but
who still exhibit dental problems.
In order to avoid constantly flipping through
my records, I created convenient one-page diagrams mapping the significance of individual
teeth. The colours correspond to acupuncture
pathways.4 The relationship of acupuncture pathways to different groups of teeth will be discussed in Part II of this article. In Part I, I seek to
convey an unconventional perspective of teeth
as a mirror of emotional and health status in
patients based on my more than ten years of
experience.
If we look at the jaws from this unconventional
perspective, then the upper jaw firmly attached
to the skull represents our wishes (Fig. 1). Particularly its width and regular tooth alignment in
the jaw indicate that the patient is able to express

the dental arch, the characteristic is significant.
If the tooth is located orally, is displaced
beyond the adjacent teeth, is in anterior crossbite or is missing, the characteristic is repressed.
Large areas affected by caries, dental fillings,
and pulpless teeth are equally negatively assessed.

Fig. 17

Central incisors represent the male and female
figures: the father, the
right maxillary central incisor; and the mother, the
left maxillary central incisor (Fig. 5). People with a
prominent left maxillary
central incisor (this tooth
often overlaps the right
one) had and often still
have in their adulthood a
much stronger maternal
influence than paternal influence during their lives
(Fig. 6). Once one is aware
of this, one will observe
that this is very common.
The opposite (a stronger
influence of the father)
is in the minority (Fig. 7).
If both of the incisors
are aligned symmetrically,
it signifies the balanced
influence of both parents.
An example from real life:
Figure 8 shows the fracture of both central incisors. It was ultimately
necessary to extract the
left incisor owing to a
root fracture. The patient’s
parents divorced and she
was given over to the care
of her father by the court and her sibling to her
mother. Thus, she lost her mother and symbolically
tooth #21.
I usually see diastemas (Fig. 9) in patients whose
parents may live together, but who essentially lead
separate lives. Patients with diastemas usually
have difficulties in their relationship with a partner. Of course, one does not usually gain such


[43] => Standard_300dpi
opinion _ significance of teeth

Fig. 18

information from the persons concerned, but one
gains insight into these secret corners of the family when one is a family dentist for many years.
Mandibular central incisors (Fig. 10) predicate
the importance of the patient’s parents in daily
life. The informative value of maxillary incisors is,
however, far greater according to my observation.
Lateral incisors represent the temperament of
the person and his or her reactions to archetypes
(= attitude towards parents; Fig. 11). If the right
maxillary lateral incisor is in protrusion, it means
the person is able to defend his or her freedom in
the family, but is usually in dispute with the father
(Fig. 12). Similarly, on the left side (tooth #22),
this position indicates opposition to the mother
(Fig. 13), as was confirmed by both of the patients
shown in the figures. If both teeth #12 and 22 are
in protrusion and overlap the central incisors,
the patient tends to have an edge over his or her
parents.
In contrast, retrusion, microdontia or total
anodontia (Fig. 14a) of these teeth is an indication
of subordination, often both in the family and
in society. For example, my questions directed at
the child in Figure 14b with anterior crossbite of
the primary lateral incisors were always answered
by his mother and the child did not interject.
Thus, orthodontic, prosthetic or implant treatment allows these patients a much better start
in current society (Figs. 15a & b) and a stable
position in the family.

I

internal transformation (Fig. 18). The canines are
generally perceived by others as a symbol of vitality and superiority. People with small canines or
canine in managerial positions often have in its
place an implant, or a dental restoration to rebuilt
the tooth. I have also observed in these teeth the
retroactive effect of tooth position evident in
a change in the patient’s emotional behaviour, as
with the lateral incisors. A shy girl with a retracted
right maxillary canine completely blossomed and
gained confidence after orthodontic treatment.
Of course, she made her parents anxious because
they suddenly had a completely different child
at home. It was probably not the only cause, but
in my practice I often see similar examples of the
retroactive effect of tooth alignment.
When a patient has his or her teeth aligned
through orthodontic treatment, the original information is lost (Fig. 19). However, if the underlying
issue is not resolved, for example a mother still
dominates her daughter, who did not manage to
disappear into world (tooth #21 overlapped tooth
#11) or, conversely, the daughter of this mother
unconsciously does not want to grow up to be
a woman because she likes fulfilling the role of
the good child, when such a patient stops wearing
retainers to maintain the tooth position after removal of the fixed appliance or does not have his
or her teeth fixed by some kind of splint, the teeth
will quickly relapse apparently without cause._

Canines reflect the changes through which
a person has gone. They erupt in times of great
growth and at the beginning of adolescence
(Fig. 16). The right maxillary canine represents
the presentation of personality outwardly. The
left maxillary canine represents attitude towards
change (Fig. 17). The right mandibular canine is an
expression of what we wish to achieve outwardly.
The left mandibular canine is a reflection of our

“We are still
pretty much in shock”
An interview with Dr Sushil Koirala, Editor-in-Chief of cosmetic dentistry
Dr Sushil Koirala: The situation
in Kathmandu still remains very
difficult owing to the extensive
damage to many public buildings,
government offices and schools.
Nearly 7,500 lives have been lost
and 14,500 people have been injured. Those who survived the
earthquake are traumatised.
While physically my family and
I are fine, we are still pretty much
in shock. My children are very distressed because they were alone at
home during the first episode of the
earthquake. Some of my staff from
the hospitals and clinics lost their
houses unfortunately and had to
stay with relatives for some time.

_In one of the worst earthquakes in
over 80 years, more than 10,000 people
are believed to have died in the Federal
Democratic Republic of Nepal. Living in and
practising dentistry in the capital of Kathmandu, Dr Sushil Koirala, Editor-in-Chief
of cosmetic dentistry, has been directly
affected by the disaster. Dental Tribune International had the opportunity to talk to him
briefly about the situation in the country and
how the international community can help it
to overcome the humanitarian crisis.
_Dental Tribune International: The
earthquake on 25 April had a devastating
effect on your country’s infrastructure and
its people. What is the situation currently
in Kathmandu, and how have you been
affected personally?


[45] => Standard_300dpi
feature _ interview

_Have you heard from colleagues in other parts
of the country, and if so what is their situation?
Most of my dental colleagues are unharmed,
but many of them are facing problems with their
damaged clinics. Most of the dental hospitals in
Kathmandu remained closed for several weeks
owing to the damage and employees not being
able to work because they are busy rebuilding their
lives. Various agencies have estimated that more
than eight million people across 39 of the country’s
75 districts have been affected by the earthquake.
The most severely affected areas include the
Bhaktapur, Dhading, Dolakha, Kathmandu, Kavre,
Lalitpur, Nuwakot, Ramechhap, Rasuwa, and Sindhupalchowk districts of Nepal’s Central Region, as
well as the Gorkha District of its Western Region.
_Have you received any correspondence from
the dental community?
I am glad to have received many e-mails with best
wishes and prayers from our dental friends around
the world. It is so gratifying to know that many of
them have pledged their support of the earthquake
victims of Nepal. Some dental manufacturers have
shown keen interest to help us in the rehabilitation
of children who have been affected.
_Despite an immediate response from India and
Western countries, relief efforts seem to be insufficient, according to reports. What is your impression?
International communities have offered immediate support and we really appreciate their help.
However, 39 of the most affected
villages are in remote locations
with mountainous terrain. The relief
work, therefore, is hampered and
support items cannot be delivered
on time. Many people in these small
villages were waiting for basic
items, such as food and shelter.
Regardless of the efforts by the
Nepalese army, police and Red Cross
Society, as well as national and
international organisations, which
were working 24/7, the manpower
and supplies were still inadequate.
_In your opinion, how will this
disaster affect the infrastructure of
your country in the long run?
Nepal’s development budget
depends mainly on foreign aid.
Rebuilding all the infrastructure
affected by the earthquake will require an estimated US$200 billion.
The government plans to meet

I

this mainly through foreign and
international funding. However,
damaged infrastructure will
definitely affect the economic
growth of Nepal negatively.
When I will be able to start
practising again depends on
when all my staff are mentally
ready for work. Daily life in
Kathmandu is still very stressful,
as there are frequent aftershocks
and people were still terrified.
Under these conditions, I do not
expect people will come for general dental treatment, except in
the case of an emergency.
_What do you consider the
most important to improve your
situation, and how can the international dental community
help?
More than 95 per cent of houses and infrastructure have been damaged in the affected villages,
so the rehabilitation phase for the earthquake victims is going to be a great challenge for our country.
I personally feel that in order to overcome this difficult time our country needs support from each individual and professional in Nepal. We have, therefore, started a humanitarian project, the Dental
Community for Humanity—Nepal Earthquake Relief
Project, under the umbrella of the Punyaarjan
Foundation, a charitable and non-profit organisation dedicated to supporting people most in need.
This project aims to support poor children living in
these remote villages in particular. I humbly appeal
to the international dental community to support
this cause. Please, with your donations and support,
we can bring back the smiles of our poor children.

Dr Sushil Koirala

_Thank you very much for taking the time and
all the best for the future.

_On 4 and 5 July, the 2015 Bio-Emulation
Colloquium was held in Berlin in Germany. The
event, which was organised by the Dental Tribune
International team in close collaboration with the
Bio-Emulation Group, attracted more than twice
the number of participants compared with last
year. Overall, more than 300 dentists and dental

technicians attended the extensive programme
on biomimetics in dentistry, including 16 lectures
and 13 workshops.
After the successful première of the BioEmulation Colloquium last year in Santorini in
Greece, this year’s meeting was held under the

Fig. 4

theme “Bio-Emulation Colloquium 360°”. Key
opinion leaders in adhesive and restorative dentistry educated the participants on methods and
techniques to achieve high aesthetic standards
and emulate nature using a histo-anatomical
approach.
During the sessions, particularly the workshops, attendees had the opportunity to learn
more about the mechanical and optical properties
of natural teeth and gain knowledge on using
existing techniques and materials. A considerable
number of workshops were fully booked; for
instance, Dr Pascal Magne’s session on dental
morphology function and aesthetics was among
the most requested.
Over 95 per cent of attendees who took part
in a representative evaluation survey said that
they would definitely recommend the event to
others. They were most satisfied with the choice
of speakers and topics in particular.
Many of the participants took advantage of
the networking opportunities offered on the

two evenings of the meeting. Each day, about
200 people attended the social events.

This year’s colloquium was held at the European School of Management and Technology,
a historical site in the centre of Berlin, next to the
office of the German Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
The building, which has landmark status today,
was once the state council building of the former German Democratic Republic. After a lavish
refurbishment in 2004 and 2005, it was transformed into the current private business school.
Dental manufacturer GC Europe was the main
sponsor and Shofu was the official partner of the
event. In addition, the colloquium was sponsored
by Ivoclar Vivadent and CROIXTURE, and supported by American Dental Systems, anaxdent
and Velopex International.
At the closing session in Berlin, members of the
Bio-Emulation Group announced that the next
colloquium will take place in Barcelona in Spain.

about the publisher _ submission guidelines

submission guidelines:
Please note that all the textual components of your submission
must be combined into one MS Word document. Please do not
submit multiple files for each of these items:
_the complete article;
_all the image (tables, charts, photographs, etc.) captions;
_the complete list of sources consulted; and
_the author or contact information (biographical sketch, mailing
address, e-mail address, etc.).

I

Image requirements
Please number images consecutively throughout the article
by using a new number for each image. If it is imperative that
certain images are grouped together, then use lowercase letters
to designate these in a group (for example, 2a, 2b, 2c).
Please place image references in your article wherever they
are appropriate, whether in the middle or at the end of a sentence.
If you do not directly refer to the image, place the reference
at the end of the sentence to which it relates enclosed within
brackets and before the period.
In addition, please note:

In addition, images must not be embedded into the MS Word
document. All images must be submitted separately, and details
about such submission follow below under image requirements.
Text length
Article lengths can vary greatly—from 1,500 to 5,500 words—
depending on the subject matter. Our approach is that if you
need more or less words to do the topic justice, then please make
the article as long or as short as necessary.
We can run an unusually long article in multiple parts, but this
usually entails a topic for which each part can stand alone because it contains so much information.
In short, we do not want to limit you in terms of article length,
so please use the word count above as a general guideline and if
you have specific questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Text formatting
We also ask that you forego any special formatting beyond the
use of italics and boldface. If you would like to emphasise certain
words within the text, please only use italics (do not use underlining or a larger font size). Boldface is reserved for article headers.
Please do not use underlining.
Please use single spacing and make sure that the text is left justified. Please do not centre text on the page. Do not indent paragraphs, rather place a blank line between paragraphs. Please do
not add tab stops.

_We require images in TIF or JPEG format.
_These images must be no smaller than 6 x 6 cm in size at 300 DPI.
_These image files must be no smaller than 80 KB in size (or they
will print the size of a postage stamp!).
Larger image files are always better, and those approximately
the size of 1 MB are best. Thus, do not size large image files down
to meet our requirements but send us the largest files available.
(The larger the starting image is in terms of bytes, the more leeway the designer has for resizing the image in order to fill up more
space should there be room available.)
Also, please remember that images must not be embedded into
the body of the article submitted. Images must be submitted
separately to the textual submission.
You may submit images via e-mail, via our FTP server or post
a CD containing your images directly to us (please contact us
for the mailing address, as this will depend upon the country from
which you will be mailing).
Please also send us a head shot of yourself that is in accordance
with the requirements stated above so that it can be printed with
your article.
Abstracts
An abstract of your article is not required.

Should you require a special layout, please let the word processing
programme you are using help you do this formatting automatically. Similarly, should you need to make a list, or add footnotes
or endnotes, please let the word processing programme do it for
you automatically. There are menus in every programme that will
enable you to do so. The fact is that no matter how carefully done,
errors can creep in when you try to number footnotes yourself.

Author or contact information
The author’s contact information and a head shot of the author
are included at the end of every article. Please note the exact
information you would like to appear in this section and format it according to the requirements stated above. A short
biographical sketch may precede the contact information
if you provide us with the necessary information (60 words
or less).

Any formatting contrary to stated above will require us to remove
such formatting before layout, which is very time-consuming.
Please consider this when formatting your document.
