“We’re tirelessly listening to our
customers to provide them with the
utmost customer care, which is at our
core to continuously evolve,” said GB
Ko, CEO of Medit. “Our i700 wireless

technology, according to the company. One battery offers one hour of
continuous scanning and eight hours
in standby mode.
The camera captures up to 70
frames per second, collecting more
data with each pass, in realistic
color and crisp images, the company
asserts. The updated design boasts
a reversible tip and wider scanning
area, allowing for scanning at any
angle with no constraints to movement.
To counter COVID-19 concerns, a
remote-control button means clini-

cians can check scan data from the
scanner and show patients without
worry of cross-contamination. The
self-disinfecting UV-C LED further
keeps the unit clean.
For a complete, trouble-free experience, the i700 wireless runs on Medit
Link, Medit’s software featuring integration with various other CAD/CAM
providers as well as Medit’s own
apps, including Medit Design, Smile
Design, Ortho Simulation, Model
Builder, Crown Fit and more.
“Packed with the latest Medit technology, the i700 wireless continues
our commitment to delivering an
amazing digital dentistry experience
through better tools and solutions,”
said GB Ko.

Maximize your dental practice daily
huddles with dental dashboards
By Henry Schein One Staff
n “Huddle up!”
That directive is a type of “rallying
call.” For your dental practice, it’s that
and more. How you maximize your
dental practice daily huddle creates
momentum and drives productivity.
Truth is, your morning huddle is a
stale routine or it’s a catalyst for everything you do throughout the day.
Your care standard, team dynamics
and profitability are influenced by the
tone of your morning huddle.

So much value from a small (but
essential) daily time investment

Research has shown that practices
who value a daily, morning huddle
time “outproduce practices that don’t
by 30 percent” on average.1
Here’s where those producing
practices are focusing their huddle
agenda:
• Scheduling gaps and opportunities.
• Scheduled patients with
unscheduled treatment on record.
• A plan B for cancellations and
no-shows.
• Team building and collaboration.
An effective morning huddle
requires being intentional. Covering
metrics and reviewing the schedule
are good, but there’s more to it.
The value exists in knowing what
numbers to measure. Then translating those measurables into practical
actions that help your patients and
improve your team’s productivity.

How to maximize your dental
practice daily huddles to
improve patient care and team
performance

Each day has something positive to
carry forward to the next. It’s also
valuable to analyze, learn from and
leverage the negative.
• Follow a proven three-to-one
ratio for daily huddle reflection (three
“wins” and one “loss” to improve).
• Collaborate briefly and proactively around the “one” area of
improvement.
• Monitor your improvement
goal(s) and circle-back when necessary.
Next, review your schedule for production and revenue opportunities:
• Look for unscheduled treatment
on today’s scheduled patient records.
• Look for unused or remaining insurance benefits within today’s
scheduled patients.
• Look for opportunities beyond

what’s already on the day’s schedule.
Also, an evaluative eye on your
next-day’s schedule helps increase
awareness and anticipation across
your team:
• Who’s scheduled?
• What treatment is scheduled?
• Where are there openings and
opportunities?
• When is the patient’s next recare,
follow-up, etc.?
Finally, think of your morning huddle as a daily “reset button.” Create
and use visual motivation (e.g., video,
whiteboard, print media, etc) around
your daily schedule goals, a select
KPI (Key Performance Indicator) or a
patient story.
• Instill ownership in your team
members through welcoming their
individual input and ideas.

• High-five effort, successes
energy, and overall engagement with
practice goals.
Intentional planning will enable
you to maximize your dental practice
morning huddles. The time and potential outcomes are too valuable to be
left to chance.

Follow and track your patient
data to keep your team engaged
around your practice goals

The Jarvis Analytics platform helps
assure that you’re tracking the important metrics and staying on-track
in your daily workflows and overall
practice goals. Jarvis Analytics for

Nova sets new standard
in electric handpieces
Smallest, slimmest, lightest still delivers big on power
By Bien-Air Dental Staff
n After nearly four years in development, Bien-Air Dental Bien-Air Dental
unveiled its new Nova contra-angle
at the 2022 Chicago Midwinter Meeting. Now the company is presenting it
here at the CDA Presents The Art and
Science of Dentistry.
Electric handpieces have been
available to dentists for a number of
years, but lingering concerns about
size, weight and general contentment with the status quo have kept
a number of doctors from seeing the
full clinical benefits electrics can
deliver. Nova is designed to take those
concerns head-on — starting with a
smaller head.
The Nova’s small head and slim
handle enhance the dentist’s field of
vision and guarantee easier access in
the back of the mouth. It is the smallest head to also feature the AccuSpray Quattro Mix system, focusing
four asymmetrical air/water sprays
on the end of the bur with laser precision to ensure optimal irrigation in
the working area.
Connected to one of Bien-Air’s
LED motors, a multi-strand optical
glass conductor simulates daylight
conditions with reduced reflection
for exceptional visibility in the working area.
“I was skeptical on how powerful
such a small head could be, and to my
surprise, the small head doesn’t mean
less power,” said Dr. Gabriela Duraes
of Blooming Smiles Dental Studio in
Chicago. “Nova cuts tooth structure
fast and smooth, without requiring
any extra pressure or concerns with
overheating.”
The unwillingness to compromise
— holding size and power as equally
important to the dentist — was a
trademark of the Nova design and
engineering processes, the company
asserts.
“Without compromising performance, our goal was to push the limits,
to deliver the size and weight reduction demanded by the long hours
kept by dental professionals,” said
Marco Gallina, VP of innovation and

marketing for Bien-Air. “This is why
we pushed ourselves to provide the
smallest front bearing with four-port
water spray, that will not overheat the
working surface of the patient.”
“Without agility, strength and
power become ineffective. At BienAir, we approach our design and
engineering problems from a holistic
perspective to balance each point of

strength — we don’t want to reduce
the weight if it means we increase
noise. Or, we don’t want to reduce the
head size if it means you cannot use
a standard length bur,” said Edgar
Schönbächler, CEO of Bien-Air. “The
Nova is our greatest achievement in
making a handpiece that is smaller,
quieter, and will last longer than any
previous version.”

Here in Anaheim
To learn more about the Nova, stop by
the Bien-Air booth, No. 1310.

Two new products
to make you smile
Beutlich Pharmaceuticals offers new HurriCaine products
By Beutlich Pharmaceuticals Staff
n
Beutlich Pharmaceuticals has
added to its family of HurriCaine
products. Beutlich, best known
within the dental industry for its
HurriCaine Topical Anesthetic gels
and sprays containing 20 percent
Benzocaine, is now offering a unit
dose gel and a unit dose gel syringe.
HurriCaine Topical Anesthetic Gel
is now available in a unit dose. This
new, individually wrapped, singleuse dose includes a single-use swab
for easy application. It is designed to
provide convenient, fast, temporary
pain relief associated with sores in
the mouth and throat, canker sores,
irritation from dentures or orthodontic appliances, and other dental procedures, according to the company.
The unit dose also has a fast onset
— within 30 seconds — and helps to
eliminate cross-contamination, the
company asserts. It is available in
five flavors: original wild cherry, piña
colada, fresh mint, watermelon and
strawberry.
The HurriCaine Topical Anesthetic
Unit Dose Gel now also comes in a
prefilled syringe. The single-use dose
syringe has a flexible but firm plastic
irrigation tip for effective sub-gingival application prior to root planning,
scaling and other procedures, allowing the gel to be delivered right where
it is needed. It has a fast onset — within
30 seconds — and comes in three flavors: original wild cherry, piña colada
and watermelon.
“We are excited to now offer people
an easy and convenient way to ease
their mouth pain,” said David Clinard,
COO at Beutlich Pharmaceuticals.
“These individually wrapped singleuse topical gels are safe and effective,
plus in many cases, they are a needlefree alternative to pain relief at the
dentist.”
MEDCOAT is another new addition
to the Beutlich’s line of products. It is
an innovative new coating that makes

according to the company. It is perfect

easy to use, works on any size or
shaped pill or capsule, and comes in
three flavors: citrus, strawberry and
cola. It is available at medcoatusa.
