Survey shows at-home oral
health practices are strong
n A key factor in achieving optimal
oral health is ensuring that teeth and
mouths are being cared for regularly.
In October, which was National Dental Hygiene Month, Delta Dental highlighted findings from a recent study
showing that adults and children
across the country continue to practice proper oral health habits at home.
The study found that, on average,
children and adults brushed their
teeth twice per day, flossed their teeth
once per day and used mouthwash
once per day.
“At-home oral hygiene habits play
a key role in maintaining good oral
health, and it is encouraging to see
respondents are committed to brushing, flossing and using mouthwash
regularly,” said Joseph Dill, DDS,
MBA, vice president of dental science,
Delta Dental Plans Association.
Such habits are motivated by the
health benefits associated with each,
with many reporting they are brushing and flossing to prevent tooth
decay, prevent dental issues and
maintain or improve oral health.
Beyond their brushing and flossing
frequency, many follow American
Dental Association guidelines on how
often to replace their toothbrush.
In fact, about two in three adults
(65 percent) switch out their brush at
least once every three months, while
86 percent of parents do this for their

Similarly, parents acknowledge
fluoride as an important step in dental hygiene. Slightly more than four
in five (83 percent) of parents say
they believe fluoride is very — if not
extremely — important to their child’s
oral health.
Delta Dental’s Adult’s Oral Health
& Wellness Survey was conducted

Dec. 28, 2020, through Jan. 8, 2021,
among a nationally representative
sample of more than 1,000 Americans
ages 18 and older, with a margin of
error of plus or minus 3 percent.
The complete survey is available
at www.deltadental.com/us/en/stateof-americas-oral-health-report.html.

Professional attendees will receive
lunch vouchers with their registration materials for use in the exhibit
hall between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. on
Friday and Saturday, and on Sunday
from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Vouchers must
be presented to a cashier at the time of
purchase. Meals for spouses or guests
may be purchased with credit cards
on-site in the exhibit hall.
Meeting in person again also provides the chance for members to
interact one-on-one with AAP staff in
the Member Resource Center. Staff is
happy to answer membership questions, help attendees navigate the
revamped perio.org, and demonstrate
the features of the online Career
Center. Attendees will also be able to
stock up on gear, gifts and other items
from the Perio Store.
The Research Forum Poster Session showcases a wide variety of
posters covering clinical research,
basic research and case reports.
Abstracts were submitted to AAP’s
Research Submissions Committee,

who selected all poster presenters
and competition finalists prior to the
annual meeting. The posters selected
for the Research Forum Poster Competition are displayed at the front of
the poster area, and authors are competing for awards in basic research,
clinical research and clinical impact.

Dental school implements
robot-assisted implant surgeries
By NYU College of Dentistry Staff
n
New York University College
of Dentistry (NYU Dentistry) has
become one of the first U.S. dental
schools to acquire, install and use
surgical robotic devices for dental
implant surgeries.
According to NYU Dentistry, these
devices will provide an opportunity
for pre- and postdoctoral students
to learn how state-of-the-art robotic
technology, with its accuracy and
precision during dental surgery, can
augment and enhance clinical practice and patient care.
The robot-assisted surgical technology, known as Yomi, was developed by Miami-based Neocis. It is the
first — and, to date, only — such device
cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration for dental implant
surgery, according to NYU Dentistry.
AD

Here in Miami Beach
To learn more about Yomi, the robotassisted surgical device, stop by Neocis
at booth No. 1113, visit www.neocis.
com or call the company directly at
(855) 963-6247.

The system uses software to preoperatively plan dental implantation
procedures and provides real-time
visual and physical intraoperative
guidance to achieve the plan. Yomi
is intended for use in adult patients
missing some or all teeth who qualify
for dental implants.
Using the Yomi system, the provider performing the surgical procedure first creates a virtual plan for the
placement of a dental implant using
detailed 3-D scans of the patient’s
mouth. The system then uses physical

cues to guide the provider along the
precise implementation of that plan
— but is also able to adjust dynamically to accommodate mid-procedure
changes. Yomi augments a provider’s
“feel,” giving real-time feedback via
haptic technology to guide a provider

along the treatment plan, but the provider controls the dental handpiece
at all times. By design, the system
complements, rather than overrides,
a provider’s clinical expertise.
“Robotic technology is truly a
game-changer for dental surgery,”
said Robert Glickman, associate dean
for clinical affairs and hospital relations and professor and chair of the
Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at NYU Dentistry. “Successfully placing dental implants
requires careful preoperative planning and a high degree of accuracy
and precision to avoid critical anatomical structures and provide the
best outcome for the patient.”
With the acquisition of Yomi, NYU
Dentistry continues to introduce pioneering new dental technologies into
its predoctoral and postdoctoral education programs.

Implantmed: A game changer
By W&H Staff
n Implantmed. These days, W&H’s
high-end device is synonymous with
dental implantology. Clear design
combined with technical finesse
make Implantmed an absolute game
changer, according to the company,
which asserts that’s been the case for
20 years.
The device is opening up new possibilities for treatment and is helping
the professional community to progress. And since its launch, Implantmed has grown rapidly from a new
technology to become a best-selling
smart device today.

Enabler for individual workflows

Technologies for implant stability
measurement and smart solutions for
digital networking make Implantmed
unique in the industry today, according to the company. Users can tailor
it to their individual implantology
workflow, and thanks to its optional
product features, it can be ideally
adjusted to clinical requirements.
Of course, the journey from the
very first Implantmed through to the
smart device has been an evolution,
and one which is continuing apace.

Making a splash from day one

It was a race against time. The IDS was
due to start on time, but the newcomer
was not quite ready for its grand
début. With a great deal of dedication,
a team of developers applied the final
touches and put Implantmed in pole
position just in time, and bang, on
schedule at IDS in March 2001, W&H’s
new implantology motor was presented to the public for the first time.
With its sterilizable motor and cable,
five different programs and straightforward and safe operation, it really
caused a stir in the professional community, according to the company.
Despite the tight time frame, the goal
was achieved and the foundations
laid for future success.
As early as 2005, Implantmed was
given a new ergonomic design and
improved motor technology. Available in two housing colors, it made an
eye-catching addition to any dental
practice. Numerous implant manufacturers added the W&H product to
their portfolio.
Shortly afterward, the innovation
was given a facelift and, from 2011,
was available in a shiny new housing. An integrated mechanical automatic thread cutter function was also
included from this point, providing
support for implant insertion in the
lower jaw.
Just five years later, W&H lit an
innovation firework, according to the

company: in cooperation with Osstell
AB, now a member of the W&H Group,
Implantmed was the first implantology motor to be enhanced with Osstell’s ISQ functionality for implant stability measurement. For the first time,
this allowed dental staff to check the
status of osseointegration in real time
and thus determine the optimal load
time for an implant.
But things didn’t stop there. This
Implantmed generation also featured
a color display, touch screen, a new
coolant pump, individual user profiles and a documentation function,
as well as customization features.
A wireless foot control ensured
that several W&H devices (such as
Implantmed and Piezomed) could be
operated with just one foot control.

To learn more about the Implantmed,
stop by the W&H booth, No. 1120.

Most versatile barrier membrane
for periodontal applications
By Snoasis Medical Staff
n While placental tissues have been
used in medical procedures for more
than 100 years,1,2 Snoasis Medical
pioneered their use in dentoalveolar
applications in 2007.
Snoasis Medical’s placental tissue
membrane, BioXclude®, is a versatile, deepithelialized amnion-chorion
membrane that provides full barrier function with inherent bioactive
growth factors and signaling molecules to promote healing.3
Placental-derived tissues are
immunoprivileged,4 alleviating concerns for rejection or adverse reaction. Additionally, amnion-chorion
allograft membranes have been
shown to have potent antimicrobial
properties,5,6 making them ideally
suited for surgical procedures in
oral and maxillofacial environments.
Together, these properties make
BioXclude the superior barrier membrane option, according to the company.
Robert J. Miller, DMD, has fully
adopted BioXclude as the best and
most versatile patient option for his
private practices in Florida.
Miller said: “Predictability and
ease of use have made BioXclude my
go-to membrane for over eight years.”
In the following case from Miller,
the patient sustained a fall, causing
a maxillary fracture and loss of teeth
#7, 8 and 9.
An allograft ring was used to place
an implant at site #9, along with xenograft bone and a collagen membrane.
An implant was also placed at site #7,
using FDBA and BioXclude to regenerate the buccal plate.
As you can see from the final CT
scans, both sides were equally successful.
This case only represents the tip
of the iceberg. Numerous studies
have demonstrated the efficacy of
BioXclude across periodontal regenerative procedures. Snoasis Medical asserts that it sets the standard
for placental membrane research in
dentistry with more than 10 years of
research and 46 clinical publications
to date, making BioXclude the most
researched placental membrane in
dentistry.

Excellent primary stability
with only one to two drills
By Neoss Staff
n Neoss ProActive® Edge is a oneof-a-kind implant, according to the
company — a powerful addition to the
Neoss implant family with outstanding primary stability even in soft or
compromised bone.
A revolutionary one- to two-step
drilling protocol prepares the site
with minimal bone removal and provides you with immediate feedback
during placement.
The drills are directly matched
to the implant and thread designs,
making placement faster, simpler and
reducing chair time for you and your
patients, the company asserts.
A pre-clinical study has shown
that the Neoss ProActive Edge
implants achieve equal or better
implant stability than top premium
brand implants, according to the company. In addition, Neoss ProActive
Edge was the only implant that maintained outstanding implant stability
in all situations, even in cases with
over-prepared osteotomies, making
it highly predictable to use.1
The predictability of the Neoss ProActive Edge implant has been further
confirmed in a clinical use study, the
company says. High primary stability
was achieved for all implants, allowing for immediate or early load in
support of single crowns and partial
bridges as well as for full-arch restorations.
All implants remained in function
during the entire one-year observation period with minimal (-0.5 mm)
bone remodeling. 2
Like all Neoss implants, Neoss
ProActive Edge features the clinically proven super hydrophilic
ProActive surface and the highly
trusted NeoLoc® connection. According to the company, it’s one prosthetic
platform across three implant ranges
with one screwdriver connection,
making it “Intelligent Simplicity.”

The science behind the 3-layer placental membrane
By Salvin Dental Specialties Staff
n
The new AmnioExcite placental membrane, available from Salvin
Dental Specialties, includes both
amnion and chorion layers plus a
trophoblast layer. According to the
company, the trophoblast layer contains more than 50 percent of the
biologically relevant proteins in the
placental membrane,1 and LifeNet
Health’s patented and proprietary
Matracell decellularization process
serves to minimize immunogenic and
inflammatory responses.7,8
The amnion membrane by itself is
thin and contains only a small portion
of the biological factors found in the
AD

full-thickness placental membrane,
Salvin said. The chorionic membrane
contains many of the same growth
factors as the amnion membrane.
However, the trophoblast layer holds

a majority of the proteins and growth
factors in the full-thickness placental
membrane.1
AmnioExcite is approximately
four times thicker than an amnion

or chorion membrane for a more substantial protective barrier.2 AmnioExcite’s unique thickness may help
prevent bacterial ingress and thus
inflammation associated with infection, the company said.
AmnioExcite does not fold in upon
itself when rehydrated, making it
much easier to handle and less likely
to migrate away from the surgical site
during the healing process.3
Unlike other amnion/chorion
membrane allografts, the layers in
AmnioExcite are never separated
during the process because separation can adversely impact retention
of the native growth factors.4
In most placental-based allografts,
the trophoblast layer is removed.
However, by removing this layer,
a rich source of beneficial endogenous biological factors and the thick
structural matrix is also removed.1
Therefore, AmnioExcite retains more
endogenous growth factors than similar placenta-derived allografts by
being processed as an intact, whole
membrane, according to Salvin.
A few tissue processors do retain
the trophoblast layer without removing viable and non-viable cells, which
may provoke an immune response
because of the presence of antigens
on the cell surface.5 The ideal solution is to leave the thick, nutrient-rich
extracellular matrix of the trophoblast layer intact but remove the
donor cells to minimize an immune or
inflammatory response.
LifeNet Health has solved this
problem by processing AmnioExcite
with its Matracell decellularization
process.6,7 Matracell is a patented
and validated process that renders
allograft tissue acellular without
compromising the biomechanical or
desired biochemical properties for its
intended surgical application.8
Both Salvin Dental and LifeNet
Health have an exemplary safety
record. Since 1995, LifeNet Health
has processed more than 7 million
bio-implants with its Allowash technology, without a single case of disease transmission. AmnioExcite has
a Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) of
10-6, which is the recommended SAL
for medical devices or allografts that
are implanted or come in contact with
breeched skin.
To learn more about AmnioExcite
or to place an order, call Salvin Dental
Specialties at (800) 535-6566.
