September 2015 “The first ever FDI Annual World Dental Congress to be held in Thailand” A welcome message by FDI President Dr Tin Chun Wong W elcome to FDI 2015 Bangkok, an event that has generated a great deal of excitement ever since its launch in New Delhi last year. The theme for this year’s event is ‘Dentistry in the 21st Century’ and much of the vital equipment and material is on display in this year’s sold-out exhibition, which will offer 5,500 square metres net of the latest in high-end technology and cutting-edge products. This does not come as a surprise. Current market research places growth in the Thai medical device market (including dental equipment, especially high-end) at an attractive 13.7 % per annum in the medium term, to reach around US$ 2.3 billion by 2018. of World Oral Health Day, held 20 March, as well as highlights on new products such as the 2nd edition of FDI’s landmark Oral Health Atlas, due for official launch during the congress. We are delighted to announce a record-breaking six national exhibition reservations, so look out for some thrilling moments in the German, United Kingdom, United States, Chinese and, for the first time, Italian and Indian pavilions. This is the first ever FDI Annual World Dental Congress to be held in Thailand. I would like to thank our partners, the Dental Association of Thailand, for putting together such an exceptional event. Cooperation between FDI and the local team has been, I’m told, in every way exemplary. I would like to congratulate the local organising committee for lining up such an impressive group of 17 national and 63 international speakers from all continents of the world to deliver a truly exceptional choice of lectures. I would also recommend you visit the FDI pavilion, where you can gain a special insight into the latest updates on ongoing activities and details of emerging areas of focus and their corresponding projects. You will also see a report on the 2015 edition FDI World Dental Federation serves as the principal representative body for more than one million dentists worldwide, through approximately 200 national member associations and specialist groups in some 130 countries. The Annual World Dental Congress has been FDI’s flagship event for well over 100 years, promoting international understanding and exchange of knowledge and experience in dentistry, challenging preconceived ideas and widening perceptions. During the congress, we will also be highlighting some of major issues facing dental practitioners, in particular, and health services in general. One of these is improving access to oral health care, within the context of oral health as a fundamental right. Another is oral health care for ageing populations, which will be the subject of this year’s World Oral Health Forum under the title ‘Challenges of oral health care in an ageing society’. AD PRINT L DIGITA N IO T EDUCA EVENTS Thailand itself is rapidly gathering a reputation for excellence in the field of dentistry, attracting patients from around the world and taking the lead in areas such as access to oral health care, caries prevention and minimal intervention dentistry. Moreover, the country has the particularity of having a ratio of 2:1 of female-to-male dental graduates entering the workforce. I sincerely hope that congress participants will have the opportunity to visit the natural and cultural gems of Bangkok and Thailand during their stay. Among other things, the country has five World Heritage Sites. On behalf of FDI, welcome to the most significant international dental event in this year’s calendar, the 2015 FDI Annual World Dental Congress.

In view of the upcoming FDI Annual World Dental Congress, which will be held in the Thai capital from 22 to 25 September, the FDI World Dental Federation has reacted immediately and sent a team to the Thai capital in order to assess the situation. “We are happy to announce that the Thai government has taken swift and effective action and the situation has returned to normal,” the federation stated. The Dental Association of Thailand, the local partner of this year’s FDI AWDC, commented on the bombings as well: “Following recent events in Bangkok, the Dental Association of Thailand has been in contact with the Government of Thailand. We have received assurances that special security measures are now in place and will remain so throughout the period leading up to the FDI Annual World Dental Congress and beyond.” of congress participants are an absolute priority. We are convinced that the measures now in place will ensure that your stay in Bangkok will be both safe and enjoyable,” the organisation added. “For the Dental Association of Thailand, the security and comfort The Erawan Shrine, dedicated to the Hindu god Brahm, is a popular destination for both tourists and locals. Close to the intersection where the bomb detonated are top hotels, shopping malls and offices. Thus, several tourists were among the victims, mostly from South and East Asia, although not all of the victims have been identified yet. AD WOHD 2015 112 COUNTRIES · 5 CONTINENTS · 1 DAY © StudioZ/Shutterstock.com THANK FOR YOUR SUPPORT! worldoralhealthday.org Organized by: 2 www.fdiworldental.org In partnership with: The bombing was one of the worst attacks in the Thai capital in years. Authorities are still searching for a suspect identified as the potential bomber through surveillance footage and to date, it is still unclear who might be responsible for it and what the possible motives are, according to the Thai Ministry of Foreign Affairs. However, Thai authorities currently believe that the goal of the attack was to affect Thailand’s tourism industry, as Defence Minister Prawit Wongsuwan told Reuters. The news agency reported that authorities have stepped up security checks at some major city intersections and in tourist areas. Following the attack, the Bangkok police reported a further small explosion. A bomb was thrown into the Chao Phraya river beneath the Taksin bridge, under which passenger ferries pass. However, nobody was hurt. The police suspect that the two attacks might be linked. Currently, they are looking for a young man wearing a yellow shirt who was captured on a surveillance camera leaving his backpack inside the fence of the Erawan Shrine. The explosion occurred minutes after the man left the shrine, making him the police’s prime suspect. Two days after the bombing, the Erawan Shrine was reopened to visitors, as the surroundings and the shrine itself have already been largely restored. Several foreign offices, including in the UK and Germany, have updated their safety information for travellers going to Thailand. They urge visitors to take extra care and monitor travel alerts and news reports. According to them, further attacks—especially in tourist regions—cannot be ruled out.[3] =>WDD0015_01-12.pdf [4] =>WDD0015_01-12.pdf News Advance Issue FDI schedules two sessions of its landmark World Oral Health Forum Meetings to focus on sugar reduction and Universal Health Coverage F DI introduced its innovative landmark World Oral Health Forum for the first time at the 2012 Annual World Dental Congress in Hong Kong.

The DWX-4W and other new developments in Roland dental milling technology will be on display at key dental conferences worldwide, including FDI 2015, the company announced. The recent introduction of CAD/CAM software, CNC milling machines and new restorative materials, has revolutionised the production of dental prostheses, including crowns, copings and bridges. One of the most popular restorative materials is lithium disilicate that is gaining support from the functionality of dry milling and wet milling into a single machine,” he continues, “While these machines can process a variety of dental CAD/CAM materials, they require a cleaning process when switching between wet and dry milling. This includes the disposal of milling residue, then cleaning the inside of the machine and drying out the processing area.” Roland DG’s multiple device solution of either dry or wet milling can handle the simultaneous processing of different materials without the inconvenience and delay of cleaning. “Each machine specialises in either wet milling such as the DWX4W or dry milling such as the DWX50 and the smaller DWX-4. Furthermore, having separate machines provides the opportunity to add an additional unit to meet production demands, with the ability to run four units off the one PC,” Adams said. Visitors of the FDI Annual World Dental Congress are invited to visit stand BD239 to see the new DWX4W and exciting new developments in Roland DG’s dental milling technology.
