“Chronic pain conditions are a hidden epidemic”
An interview with Prof. William Maixner, US
C
hronic pain is a complex health
problem that affects millions of
people worldwide but is still not
well understood. Prof. William Maixner,
from the School of Dentistry of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill,
is analysing the underlying causes of
persistent pain conditions, such as temporomandibular disorder (TMD), in order to improve their diagnosis and therapy. At the FDI 2015 AWDC, Worldental
Daily had the opportunity to speak with
the FDI presenter about recent discoveries regarding the risk factors and
causes of TMD and the importance of
chronic pain as a field of research.
Worldental Daily: Prof. Maixner,
one of your main research areas is
chronic pain. Currently, what are the
most pressing issues in the field of
chronic pain research and therapy, especially regarding orofacial pain and
conditions such as TMD?
Prof. Maixner: I think one of the
most important issues is public awareness of chronic pain and of the magnitude of the problem. Chronic pain conditions are a hidden epidemic. A US
study from 2011 that was conducted by
the Institute of Medicine and commissioned by the US congress found that
one in seven Americans will suffer from
a chronic pain condition in their lifetime. This represents over 116 million
adults who will experience chronic
pain. The economic burden for the US
health care system is calculated to be
US$635 billion a year, which is more
than the costs of diabetes, cancer and
heart disease combined. Thus, there is
a huge cost to society and to individuals
that is not well known. Therefore, I am
calling it a hidden epidemic.
Within the chronic pain domain,
one of the most common types of pain
conditions are musculoskeletal conditions, and TMD is highly prevalent
within these. About 15 per cent of the US
population will experience TMD and
worldwide about 10–15 per cent will
experience it at some point in their lifetime. Often, the condition will diminish
with age, but frequently it is persistent
in about 20–30 per cent of that group,
causing severe disruption. Chronic pain

conditions, including TMD and other
orofacial pain conditions, are highly
prevalent and represent a huge burden
to society.

I Prof. William Maixner
www.fdiworldental.org
On the research front, one of the
unmet needs is understanding the
pathophysiological mechanisms that
lead to the onset and progression of
chronic pain conditions. Just like any
other disease condition, such as hypertension, diabetes and cancer, we now
recognise that chronic pain conditions
have a true biology and our challenge
today is to begin to understand the
biology that underlies chronic pain conditions. The good news is that over the
last 50 years, we have developed tools
on the preclinical and clinical levels
to begin to dissect and understand the
underlying pathophysiological processes that lead to the onset of a chronic
pain condition and risk factors that lead
to the chronicity of a variety of these
conditions.
The tools that we use are neurological tools, psychological assessments
and autonomic assessments, a variety
of assessment procedures to better
diagnose and classify these patients
into groups with different mechanisms
that lead to these conditions. In order
to better understand these groups, we
can then begin to look at the molecular
substructures using genetics and genomic techniques to identify the underlying molecular pathways that contribute to a variety of chronic pain conditions. The goal of all this is to develop
new therapeutic targets and new therapies for chronic pain conditions, and
I think we are now there. We have made
significant advances in the field and we
are not far behind cardiovascular medicine and oncology, for example, in being
able to essentially type a chronic pain
patient and begin to personalise his
or her treatment based on his or her
phenotypic signature—that is, how he
or she presents clinically but also his or
her molecular substructure. Obviously,
there needs to be much more work done
to translate these research findings into
the clinical setting. A real need in this
area is for pharmaceutical companies
and governments to step up to help
realise this. Another important need is
in the area of education: one reason
that so many patients are suffering from
chronic pain is because our health care
systems globally have really been unable to develop a curriculum around the
area of pain mechanisms and management. Most of our graduates in both
dentistry and medicine are minimally
exposed to this field, so when a difficult
patient presents they often do not know
how to handle that patient. Thus, the
patient ends up as part of the hidden epidemic, a silent group that has
nowhere to go. The area of chronic pain
requires great augmentation in education and thus a curriculum revision and
reform that will honour the chief complaint of most patients, which drives
them to the dentist and drives them to
see a physician, that is, pain.
In 2006, you started the OPPERA
project (Orofacial Pain: Prospective
Evaluation and Risk Assessment), the
first prospective cohort study of TMD.
What was the aim of the study?
I think one of the premises that underlie OPPERA and the understanding
of most chronic pain conditions, such
as fibromyalgia, headache conditions
like migraine, and osteoarthritis, is that
pain is part of a larger mosaic of complications that patients experience.
Pain is not just something that originates in the brain. One of our goals is
to understand the biology that leads
to conditions like TMD and many corelated conditions. We took a biopsychosocial approach, which assumes
that the conditions are associated with
risk factors that are biologically and
psychologically based. We can measure different domains. In the biological
domain, there are pain sensitivity and
pain amplification, for example. In the
psychological domain, we can measure
factors, such as anxiety, depression,
and somatic awareness, which is how
well we perceive different sensory
events in our environment, like smell
and visual stimuli. So when we talk
about the biopsychosocial domain, we
are talking about different domains
that show disturbances, and most disturbances can lead to signs and symptoms in the patient who reports to us in
the clinic with TMD. These signs and
symptoms, including anxiety, depression and increased pain sensitivity, really result from the expression of different biochemical pathways in the body
that are influenced by genetic variants
and the interaction of proteins. The
resulting intrinsic genetic codes that
everyone has are impacted by certain
environmental events, such as injury,
and psychological or physical stress, and
in return influence behaviours and affect moods, such as anxiety, depression
and pain processing. We have been involved in OPPERA in seeking to identify
those biopsychosocial variables that
predict the development of TMD.
What was your approach to identifying these variables?

Collaboration opportunity
Nepal charity seeks to initiate partnership with dentists in Asia
A
I Dr Koirala (right) in talks with Worldental Daily.
AD
lmost entirely forgotten by
the media, Nepal is still dealing with the effects of the
earthquake that struck the country
in March. According to dentist Dr
Sushil Koirala from Kathmandu, to
whom Worldental Daily had the
opportunity to talk yesterday here
at the FDI 2015 AWDC in Bangkok,
the disaster has had devastating
effects on the country’s economy, including the provision of dental care.
Particularly poor off are most rural
areas, where even the bare necessities
are difficult to access. Initiated in response to the disaster, Koirala’s charity,
Dental Community for Humanity, initially
sought to provide help for 800 families
by building a new school. In addition, the
network is intended to provide a platform for dental professionals in the region to connect and share charity work
and social projects.
“Natural disasters can happen anywhere and we as dentists are in a unique
position not only to help with money but
also with our skills and dedication to
the human cause,” Koirala explained.
Initial response to his efforts has
been excellent, with donations and support provided by a number of individuals
and institutions throughout the region,
including the Philippine Academy of
Esthetic Dentistry and dental manufacturer SHOFU.
Attendees of the AWDC who are interested in learning more about the
Dental Community for Humanity project
or would like to know more about how to
contribute can obtain more information
online on Facebook (www.facebook.com/
groups/919880638032310). Koirala
will also be holding a lecture at 4 p.m.
today as part of the Dental Tribune Study
Club symposium at Booth B77 in the
exhibition hall.

There is a long history that led to the
OPPERA project. It has been a 20-year
process. We conducted a series of
preliminary studies before the actual
OPPERA study started. For the last ten
years, we have been funded by the
National Institutes of Health under the
name of OPPERA. The OPPERA study
is a prospective cohort study, to which
we recruited nearly 4,000 individuals,
of whom 3,000 were free of the index
condition of interest, TMD. We followed
them for about three to four years.
On entry into the protocol, they were
assessed in terms of biological function and pain processing, and we also
looked at their psychological profiles.
Thus, we obtained a very detailed
biopsychosocial profile. We also took
a biological sample to examine the
genetics of the population. We then followed them from this baseline. Every
three months, we followed up with a
questionnaire related to whether they
had developed a condition like TMD.
If they appeared to have developed the
condition, they were brought back into
the clinic and then assessed to see if
they met the clinical criteria for TMD.
This way, we were able to determine
from these baseline variables which
specific psychological variables and
pain-processing variables predicted
who was going to develop TMD, as well
as chronic TMD. We made several fundamental discoveries and have been
able to identify certain risk determinants leading to both the onset and the
chronicity of TMD. We have identified
that certain types of psychological variables and pain-processing variables
are highly predictive of TMD. There are
two variables to be highlighted here.
The first is somatic awareness: individuals who have a high sensory capacity
of their environment are more likely
to develop TMD and to be chronic TMD
patients six months to one year out.
The second variable is individuals who
show high sensitivity in the muscle.
They are also more likely to develop
TMD and present with chronic TMD.
One of the main outcomes of
OPPERA is that it demonstrated that
conditions like TMD are not isolated
orofacial pain conditions. They are highly co-prevalent with other chronic pain
conditions, such as fibromyalgia, irritable bowel syndrome and chronic fatigue. Thus, they require very complex
management to treat them effectively,
not only by dental practitioners but also
by other specialists. So primarily, with
the discoveries that we have made in
the OPPERA project, I think we will be
able to develop new therapies and treatment possibilities for TMD patients.
Thank you very much for this
interview.

Leading the World to Optimal Oral Health
FDI report on IPE and CP:
Essential reading for all dentists
By Ward Van Dijk & Nermin Yamalik,
Joint Chairs of the FDI Task Team on Collaborative Practice
O
Optimal Oral Health through Inter-Professional
Education and Collaborative Practice
ne year ago in New Delhi, we
unveiled a first draft discussion document on the theme
of interprofessional education and
collaborative practice, following a
year of reviewing available literature
and assembling case studies from
around the world. We knew at the
time that there would need to be
more feedback and discussion prior
to issuing our findings as an FDI report.
There followed a period of over six
months of exchanges before we finally published ‘Optimal Oral Health
through Inter-Professional Education
and Collaborative Practice, and distributed advance printed copies at
side-events in advance of and during
the World Health Assembly (WHA) in
May of this year.

It has been a relatively long
process—nearly two years—so it is
useful to remind ourselves of why we
undertook such a monumental task
in the first place in this field of work.
The answer is that the two concepts
integrate strategies to improve access to care, enhance efficiency and
quality and reduce costs.
They are a response to new healthcare environment characterized by
changes in disease patterns, access
to care issues and the challenge of
catering to the requirements of ageing populations. Dentists are not the
only medical profession to be looking
at the question: however, we have
moved ahead of other organizations
by focusing primarily on the practical
applications.
I Ward Van Dijk
INTERTWINED CONCEPTS
It goes without saying that neither
of these concepts can be discussed
in isolation from the other. In its
ground breaking ‘Framework for action on interprofessional education
and collaborative practice’, the World
Health Organization (WHO) clearly
pinpoints the symbiotic relation between the two: “Interprofessional education occurs when students from
two or more professions learn about,
from and with each other to enable
effective collaboration and improve
health outcomes. Interprofessional
education is a necessary step in
preparing a “collaborative practiceready” health workforce that is better
prepared to respond to local health
needs.”
I Nermin Yamalik
ESSENTIAL READING
WHO says that “Interprofessional
collaboration happens when multiple
health workers from different professional backgrounds work together
with patients, families, carers and
communities to deliver the highest
quality of care.”
The IPE/CP report is not an FDI
Policy Statement: it is not prescriptive
or normative; nor does it lay out the
current FDI thinking on various issues
related to oral health, oral health policies and the dental profession. Rather
it is descriptive and informative on
trends in the field and, we believe, essential reading for dentists and, hopefully, an initiator of dialogue within national dental associations and among
the wider community of dentists.
Although dentists have already
made great strides forward, the new
FDI report will undoubtedly have

repercussions for the profession. FDI
is of the view that, on issues of
collaboration to advance oral health
and contribute to the improvement of
general health and quality of life, dentists, as front-line medical professionals in the prevention, early detection
and treatment of oral and systemic
diseases, should play a leadership
role.
The profession should therefore
be part of the political dialogue at national and global level and recognized
as a driving force behind the development of CP competencies and implementation of any CP model.

education, collaborative practice,

1964 we invented the dental suction system. A milestone in dental
technology. With the same aspiration to quality and reliability, we have now
developed a completely new system with radial technology. The result is
more than 50% lighter with a potential saving in energy of up to 50%.

FDI-Unilever Partnership: Moving into Phase 3
By Drs Virginie Horn, Education and Public Health Director at FDI World Dental Federation,
and Monica Carlile, Global Expertise & Authority Manager at Unilever Oral Care
is an integral part of general health
and well-being; improving oral health
means improving people’s lives: it
means less pain from decaying teeth,
and fewer school- or work-days lost
through oral disease-related absences.
Everyone has the right to a healthy,
happy life, free of oral disease.
From our perspective as global
partners, the FDI-Unilever partnership is positioned firmly within the
overall FDI vision of leading the world
to optimal oral health. It also contributes to Unilever’s aim of helping
one billion people improve their
health and well-being, as part of the
Unilever Sustainable Living Plan.
Our commitment to working together, combining our skills and resources
and applying them towards a shared
goal, is the first example of a truly
global health partnership in the field
of oral health and dentistry.

Welcome to the smiling world of SOREDEX™
I Dr Virginie Horn

I Dr Monica Carlile
W
e are pleased to announce
that the FDI-Unilever Oral
Care partnership has now
moved into Phase 3, under the banner ‘Brush Day & Night’. Since its
inception in 2005, the partnership
originally known as Live.Learn.Laugh.
has gone from strength to strength.
Beginning with a pioneering phase 1
(2005 to 2009), it established a
model where FDI member National
Dental Associations collaborated with
Unilever Oral Care local companies
to improve oral health and build
health promotion capacity through
39 diverse projects in 36 countries.
In 2010, the partnership moved
into phase 2 with a more focused
goal and aligned project designs. The
remarkable collaboration between
dentists, other health professionals,
community workers and school
teachers allowed us to reach more
than 41,000 people directly—including over 33,000 children—through
29 projects in 27 countries, with
Phase 2 oral health promotion messages reaching an estimated one million people worldwide.
In Phase 3, the focus continues to
be on educating children in selected
countries about the importance of
brushing twice daily with a fluoride
toothpaste; as a further aim, it seeks
to empower them to become advocates for oral health among family and
friends. It pursues the flexibility from
phase II that makes the most of valuable local expertise to ensure project
relevance, accepting that adaptation
can be essential for real, sustainable
benefit within local communities.
Today, the ‘Brush Day & Night’
programme pursues the long-term
partnership goal of preventing the
suffering caused by oral disease and
improving quality of life. Oral health

Planmeca combines CAD/CAM with 3D CBCT data in one software
I With the combination of CAD/CAM
solutions and X-ray
units in the Planmeca ProMax 3D
imaging family,
dental professionals can now bring
together a wider
range of information for treatment
planning and diagnostic purposes.
According to the
manufacturer, the
Planmeca Romexis
software platform
opens new doors
in creating a new
standard of care
for patients by of-
fering high-quality
features for different
specialities, including implant planning and other restorative treatments,
all available through
one software interface.
Planmeca ProMax 3D imaging units reveal intricate information on soft and hard tissue
structures, including the mandibular
nerve canal, while the Planmeca
PlanScan intraoral scanner
captures precise data above
the gum line. The combination of these data helps
build a complete understanding of any case and
makes 3-D prosthetic de-
signing quick, accurate and easy, the
company said. Clinics are able to operate more flexibly, as restorations
can either be milled at a clinic with the
Planmeca PlanMill 40 milling unit, or
easily sent to a dental lab in an open
STL data format.
digital workflow also ensures the full
utilisation of resources, according to
Planmeca, leading to a more efficient
treatment environment. Instead of
two visits, patients can be treated in
one hour and with no temporary
crowns or physical dental models
required.
PLANMECA, FINLAND
www.planmeca.com
Booth A145
Standardised data is the driving
force behind many of the latest developments in digital dentistry, as
it guarantees the interoperability of
images and dental data across different hardware platforms. Bringing
Planmeca’s CBCT and CAD/CAM systems together through the Planmeca
Romexis software platform makes
effective chairside dentistry a reality
and presents dentists with a streamlined opportunity to substantially
grow their practice. A streamlined
Dürr highlights new class of energy efficiency suction systems
I Tailored to the needs of dental surgeries good, suction systems from
Dürr Dental opened up the possibilities for ergonomic dental treatment
around fifty years ago. A pioneer in the
field the company began distributing
them as as early as 1964. Since then,
Dürr has been constantly working on
improving its technology. As a result,
the new generation of dental suction systems called Tyscor is quieter,
smaller and lighter. According to the
company, it also reduces energy consumption by up to 50 per cent*.
In the 1960s, systematic spray
mist suction was developed to successfully deal with fundamental problems such as the exposure of both
patients and staff to aerosol-based
germs as well as the often uncomfortable working position of dentists,
which until then had been unavoidable.
It is hard to think of another innovation
that has made so much progress
with regard to the known
prevalence of back
complaints in
dentists. With
the new invention, it
was now
possible
for dentists
to treat reclined patients whilst
they themselves
were sitting down.
Nowadays, energy efficiency is becoming increasingly important and this is where Dürr Dental has
made inroads with its recent techno-
logical breakthrough. Its engineers
have designed the new Tyscor generation of suction machines
in such a way that
it works with
radial compressors instead of side
channel
blowers.
Until now,
radial compressors have
mainly been
used for industrial and domestic
applications. Larger-sized
examples include ventilation and
air-conditioning systems as well as
refrigeration engineering, two of many
sectors where reliability and endurance
are vital.
Tyscor suction machines offer the
reliability products from Dürr Dental
are known for, the company said.
They are easy to install with the help
of dental trade experts, require low
mantainance and exhibit a high level
of failure safety. As the new Tyscor
generation works even more quietly
than its predecessors, it completely
blends into the background.
A dry Tyscor suction machine can
be easily converted into a wet system,
if nessessary. Owing to its modular
design, the separation system can be
easily integrated into the existing
unit, according to Dürr. It goes without saying that the new suction units
are networkable and can be used with
Tyscor Pulse software meaning that
clinicians can conveniently set their
suction machine to one of three dif-
ferent suction levels (Eco, Balanced,
and Boost) from a personal computer. Owing to demand-based
control of the vacuum, users tend
to save 50 %* in total energy costs
compared with traditional devices.
The new Tyscor suction machine
generation is available now, with
each unit being accessible by two
dentists. Tyscor V 2 is the dry suction unit and Tyscor VS2 is the wet
version. The CA 2 is also available
as a suitable amalgam filtration
device.

Nobel introduces complete posterior solution
I Adressing all problems a clinician
faces when restoring a single tooth
in the posterior, Nobel Biocare is
trying to bring innovation back to
the posterior region with its new
complete posterior solution.
Multiple Nobel Biocare novelties combine to make this
solution complete, but the
foundation for treatment
success is the implant itself,
the company said. Here
Nobel Biocare offers several
options, each engineered
for the specific demands of
the posterior. A new variant
offers the benefits of the
NobelActive family but with
dimensions ideal for the
molar region. The NobelActive WP (wide platform)
implant possesses a wider diameter implant body
(5.5 mm) to better fit the large
extraction sites in the molar region
and a wider implant platform for an
optimal emergence profile.
NobelActive WP also comes in an
option with a shorter body (7 mm) to
avoid critical anatomical structures
such as nerves.

Alternatively, clinicians can opt
for NobelParallel Conical Connection
(CC). Combining a parallel-walled implant body that is well documented
with an advanced internal connec-
Both new implants also benefit
from Nobel Biocare’s internal conical
connection. This advanced connection’s conical seal and hexagonal interlocking mechanism provide high
shaped to match the molar contours.
As the PEEK Abutments come readyshaped for an optimized emergence
profile, fewer adjustments are needed.
This can simplify treatment and reduce costly chair time.
When it comes to the
final restoration, the FCZ
(full-contour zirconia) Implant Crown is designed
for strength and predictability even under the
high occlusal forces of
the posterior. There’s no
worrying about chipping
either, as the full-contour

tion, this implant offers extraordinary
flexibility. It is engineered for use in
all bone qualities and for a wide range
of indications.
The 5.5 mm wide platform option
is designed for an optimised emergence profile for large molar sites.
mechanical strength. It offers restorative flexibility too, being compatible
with Nobel Biocare’s most innovative restorative solutions, including
those designed specifically for the
posterior. These include the new
PEEK Healing and PEEK Temporary
Abutments, which are anatomically
The biocompatibility
of the materials used contributes to biological stability in the
areas it matters most. Plus, being
screw retained, the FCZ Implant
Crown is completely cement free,
avoiding the risks associated with
cement excess entirely. Even the
titanium adapter is mechanically
retained.
The ability to use an angulated
screw channel (ASC) allows the
screw access hole on the FCZ Implant Crown to be placed anywhere
between 0° and 25° in a 360° radius.
This means it can be angled towards
the front of the mouth for easy access, even in the posterior. It also
helps avoid placing the access channel on the cusp of a tooth, where it
could affect occlusion. The associated Omnigrip Screwdriver further
simplifies work on the restoration.
Its effective pick-up function and secure grip on the screw help the clinician to work safely and efficiently.
Natural-looking tooth color is
another benefit offered by the FCZ
Implant Crown. Whichever of the
eight available shades is used,
the color is applied throughout the
material. This means discoloration
isn’t a concern when making adjustments. Cutbacks and staining can
also be used to achieve the desired
aesthetic effect.

GC G-ænial represents the art of effortless beauty
I According to GC, continuous development of restorative materials is
essential to give dental professionals
and the patients more options to
achieve excellent quality fillings with
the best aesthetic results, while
maintaining optimal physical performance at the same time. G-ænial
is the company’s answer to the increasing demands to highly aesthetic
restorations and superior handling
in the market today. A user-friendly
restorative that is indicated for highly
aesthetic single shade or multi-shade
build-ups in all restorative classes, it offers a forward thinking shading concept
that provides enough flexibility to help
dentists to achieve aesthetically beautiful restorations.
The material contains different interfaces with different optical proper-
ties resulting in varied reflection of light.
The excellent ability of G-ænial is related to its extremely diverse structural
composition, that results in it mimicking
the reflectivity of a natural tooth thus
capturing the genius of nature and creates invisibility in restorations.
G-ænial gives dentists also the
option to choose the best handling
characteristics suitable to their needs.
While G-ænial Anterior
allows them to shape,
flow and sculpt, G-ænial
Posterior provides a more
packable, firmer consistency. G-ænial
does not stick onto the spatula or matrices and allows to extend working
time under ambient light extended to
four minutes, the company said. A high
strength low shrinkage stress composite, both Anterior and Posterior shade
can have
universal application (anterior shades
can be used in posterior restorations
and vice versa).

Roland DG’s dental milling technology.
According to Adams, Roland DG
has identified a market need that it
intends to fill.
I A leading provider of dental milling
technologies, Roland DG Australia
recently announced the introduction of its new wet milling dental
machine. 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
dental clinics and patients for its superior hardness and aesthetic qualities.
“In the current market we are familiar with products that combine 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

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

PeriO3 Oil contains natural triple formula for healthy gums
I Ozone has become increasingly
important in dentistry in recent
years. It has been demonstrated
to kill viruses, bacteria and fungi
and to promote healing processes
by activating the metabolism. The
ozonised natural gum therapy effectively supports the treatment
of acute and chronic inflammation
of the gums and, in contrast to
chlorhexidine, causes no discoloration. In addition to olive and
castor oil, ozone is a main component of Hoffmann's PeriO3 Oil. This
highly effective combination excels
through its excellent tolerability and
is even recommended for the treatment of patients who are pregnant
or breastfeeding.
Hormonal changes during pregnancy affect the oral vessels, which
are then easier for bacteria to penetrate and lead to periodontal diseases faster. According to Hoffmann,
PeriO3 Oil is the solution for pregnant
and breastfeeding women, particularly owing to the oil not containing
any alcohol.
The highly reactive oxygen
atoms in Hoffmann’s PeriO3 Oil
purposefully eliminate the
pathogenic anaerobic bacteria
and restore the healthy oral
flora. The sensitive oral mucosa
and the taste buds are not irritated
too. The bactericidal and fungicidal
properties of ozonised oils have been
scientifically proven; when treating
periodontal disease, ozonised oil
provides better results than a 0.2 %
chlorhexidine solution. There are
significant benefits when it comes to
dealing with staphylococcus aureus
and porphyromonas
gingivalis.

and wounds after tooth extraction.
Additional mouthwashes are contraindicated during the application,
the company said.
“I particularly use Hoffmann’s
PeriO3 Oil for patients with an
inclination to chronic gum inflammations, but also for those
with simple gingivitis and for
the treatment after periodontal
treatment as a supportive measure,” explains dentist Dr André
Kaczmarek. “I have successfully
treated more than 5.000 cases with
this preparation in my dental practice since 1998.”
Hoffmann’s
PeriO3 oil is applied into the interdental spaces or the gingival pockets
using a blunt cannula. In order to

prior to treatment. Hoffmann’s PeriO3
Oil is also suitable for the treatment

WHAT IS DESIGN?
Times: 10.30 a.m. – 9 p.m.
Venue: Thailand Creative
and Design Center
www.tcdc.or.th
Is design just about style and
inspiration, or is there more to it?
Do aspects such as society, history,
politics, economics, geography and
religion determine the process of
design? How does the collective
imagination of a country influence
designers in their work? The exhibition “What is design?” tries to answer these questions by tracing the
creative and cultural genius loci of
several countries in twentieth-century
industrial design. The exhibition,
hosted by the Thailand Creative and
Design Center, presents various industrial design classics from England,
Italy, France, Germany, the US, Spain,
the Netherlands, Finland, Japan,
Brazil and Thailand.
