New ‘Dental
Photography’
DVDs from
gIDE
From the Global Institute for
Dental Education (gIDE) comes yet
another must-have guide and reference for any clinician’s practice.
This new Dental Photography twodisc DVD set demonstrates how to
shoot high-quality photos that meet,
and even exceed, all dental and
photographic art standards.
Through lectures and real live
operatory examples, gIDE’s expert
faculty — including Dr. Jim Dunn,
a private practitioner in Auburn,
Calif., and AACD Educator of the
Year; Dr. Brian P. LeSage, a private
practitioner in Beverly Hills and
course director at UCLA CE; and
Dr. Richard Young, assistant professor in restorative dentistry at LLU
School of Dentistry — present dental photography as more than just
a record of existing conditions or
treatment completed.
It is a communication tool to optimize interactions with the patient,
the lab, referral sources and marketing.
The lectures cover topics such as
use of photography, digital dental
photo world, AACD views, SLR settings and more.
Basic setting for point-and-shoot,
an SLR demo with Canon 50D and
entry-level Canon T1, and flash and
lens options are thoroughly demonstrated.
In addition, the set uses a real
operatory setting to exhibit intraoral techniques with point-andshoot and SLR, shooting the 12
AACD views, quick portraits with
point-and-shoot, and other intraoral
approaches.
gIDE has created a tool to
enhance a clinician’s ability to
choose the best camera for his or
her needs, expertly document cases
with intraoral photos and consistently produce stunning smiles and
portraits.

Clinicians have the opportunity to check out new innovative products
By Robin Goodman and Sierra Rendon, DTA
The spring edition of CDA Presents the Art and Science of Dentistry was held May 12–14 at the Anaheim Convention Center, and with
plenty of educational opportunities
to be had and about 600 exhibiting
companies to choose from, there
was certainly plenty for dental professionals to see and do.
Education
For those needing to renew a
license or permit, there was a lecture on infection control offered by
Tricia Osuna, RDH, BS, FAADH, and
an afternoon lecture on the California Dental Practice Act offered
by Diane Morgan-Arns. In between
these required courses, there was a
myriad of other options, from cor-
porate forums to lectures and even
express lectures, to fill out the rest
of the educational day.
Corporate forums included those
held by Invisalign, Carestream Dental, GC America, Colgate Oral Pharmaceuticals and 3M ESPE, offering
courses with one to eight units of
C.E. credit.
Among the express lecturers,
lasting 90 minutes, were a few
“New to the Podium” speakers, such
as Richard Golden, who spoke on
“Achieving Atraumatic Extractions
Simply, Predictably and Nonsurgically,” and Dr. Randolph Shoup,
who discussed “Advanced Cariology and Prosthetic Restoration for
Everyday Practice.”
The workshops lasted from two
and a half to three hours each, with
the option of a morning or after-
noon session, and covered topics
as varied as lasers, TDIC risk management, dental photography, dental marketing, digital dentistry and
oral pathology, to name just a few.
Also among the workshop lineup
was Dr. Douglas Lambert’s lecture
on “Smile Design: Something Old,
Something New, Something Borrowed and Something RED?” and
Dr. Derek Mahoney’s discussion of
“Patients’ Nasal Breathing Problems
and How This May Influence Dental
Crowding and Facial Morphology.”
Exhibits
More than 100 new products were
introduced to attendees, according
to the CDA, all of which may make
your job as a dental professional
quicker, easier or less fraught with
complications. IT

Pro-fix Precision Fixation System
IMPLANT TRIBUNE
simplifies membrane fixation for surgeons
The World’s Newspaper of Implantology · U.S. Edition
The Pro-fix™ Precision Fixation
System, introduced by Osteogenics
Biomedical last fall, is significantly
increasing in popularity because of
the product’s features that make membrane fixation fast and easy, the company says.
“Although membrane fixation is not
always necessary, I think most surgeons agree that membrane fixation
increases the success rate associated
with guided bone regeneration procedures, especially in vertical and horizontal ridge augmentation cases,” said
Shane Shuttlesworth, Osteogenics’
president. “However, membrane fixation can often be difficult in dense corAD
tical bone where tacks require the use
of a mallet and screws require a pilot
hole. The beauty of the Pro-fix system
is that the screws are self-drilling,
and they work very well in cortical
bone; no extra instrumentation is necessary beyond the driver, and the kit
is designed in a way that it can store
a variety of screws from a variety of
systems in one place.”
The Pro-fix system features a
locking-taper cruciform drive system
that allows easy pickup and safe transport of the screw to the surgical site
and a screw organizer dial that can
hold up to 100 screws.
The most popular Pro-fix mem-
brane fixation screws are 3 mm in
length to facilitate fixation of most
membranes and mesh, and they feature an aggressive tip design that
allows for precise membrane placement without the need for a pilot hole
— even in cortical bone.
In addition to the self-drilling membrane screws, self-drilling tenting
screws will be available this summer.
For more information or to purchase the Pro-fix Precision Fixation System, visit www.osteogenics.

BIOMET 3i, Cadent announce joint
effort to simplify esthetic restorations
Two leaders in the dental marketplace, BIOMET 3i and Cadent, have
announced a collaboration to offer
digital intraoral impressions through
BIOMET 3i’s patented Encode®
Impression System and Cadent’s
iTero™ System.
Clinicians can now make an
impression of a healing abutment
with the use of an intraoral wand
that will scan embedded codes on
the occlusal surface of the abutment.
These codes indicate the implant
depth, hex orientation, platform connection and connection type (Certain®
Internal Connection or External Hex
Connection) to design and mill the
definitive abutment.
The process of making an
intraoral impression may lead to
greater patient satisfaction, as it
eliminates the need to use impressionmaking material in order to make the
impression. According to the companies, some patients find that it is
a more comfortable procedure. Coupled with the fact that the clinician
only needs to take one supragingival
