Saturday

n Continuing education in dentistry
has historically crossed the industry’s
academic and marketplace borders,
and perhaps nowhere is that more
visible than in the exhibit halls of the
world’s major dental meetings. The
CDS Midwinter Meeting is no exception, presenting seemingly unlimited
opportunities for practitioners to not
just keep pace — but take the lead with
dentistry’s latest innovations.
If it’s not a course in a booth or
nearby classroom, there’s some other
educational opportunity typically
linked to the products and services

on display. An apt example can be
found in the DentalEZ booth (No. 1411)
with the company’s recently released
True Caries Teeth from Columbia
Dentaform. Unlike painted caries,
the simulated caries on True Caries
Teeth has a sticky, rubbery feel that
provides a realistic, tactical sensation
and response when students remove
it with a curette. It’s a significant
advancement in the teaching of caries
identification and removal and worth
checking out along with the company’s many other dental products.
In
the
Cosmedent
booth
(No. 1804), there are show specials
on composites (buy three and get one
free, mixing and matching however
you want) and on ceramic polishers
(20 percent off). But visitors are perhaps most interested in the special
being offered on continuing education. The company’s popular online
courses are available at a $100 discount per course. The two-day courses
are videotaped and then divided into
manageable segments that are available for an entire year to watch at your
own pace, repeating any segment as
often as you want. Taught by top clinicians, the courses include a range
of topics, such as esthetic cosmetic
dentistry and worn dentition.
In the Ortho-Tain/Healthy Start
booth (No. 2108), you can save $400 on
training to become a Healthy Start provider. The appliance-based systems
enable practitioners to straighten
children’s teeth with no braces and/
or addresses the root cause of sleep
disordered breathing. Worldwide,
4 million children have been treated
with Healthy Start systems.

Dentistry gets its
own 3-D printer
By Robert Selleck, today staff
Chicago Booth No. 3521
n Planmeca used this year’s Midwinter Meeting to launch its Creo C5 3-D printer, offering
demonstrations of the technology in its booth
(No. 1020). The 3-D printer is custom-engineered
for dental professionals to enable delivery of
same-day appliances, including surgical guides
and dental models.
The printer, which uses FDA-approved resins,
can create surgical guides or dental models in
less than 15 minutes, 50-60 temporary crowns in
less than 10 minutes or up to five full arch dental
models in one print.
“It’s all about creating a more efficient workflow and enabling practices to provide more
in-office services,” said Lenny Asuncion in the
Planmeca booth Friday morning. Asuncion
is Planmeca’s product marketing manager —
CAD/CAM.
The Planmeca Creo C5 uses LCD Photomask
technology, which projects a uniform light
source that virtually eliminates imperfections
when printing dental appliances. The printer
does not require calibration, features an easyto-use touch display with pre-programmed settings and uses open STL and PLY files for seamless integration.
The Creo C5 will soon fully integrate with
Romexis (Planmeca’s all-in-one suite of dentalpractice software), fully linking the printer into
treatment processes from start to finish: scanning, designing, creating a model to clearly communicate with the patient, milling and creating

surgical guides to ensure successful outcomes.
The resins used by the Planmeca Creo C5
come in proprietary capsules labeled with QR
codes that the printer automatically reads to
ensure the correct resin is being used for the
planned printing. The result is high-quality 3-D
printing materials — without any material waste.
The device has garnered quite a bit of attention at its unveiling at the Midwinter meeting,
with groups of dentists frequently gathering
around it in the Planmeca booth for a demonstration. “It really is a time-saver,” Asuncion said.

Thanks to the generosity of
corporate sponsors, volunteer treatment provided by individual care
providers and organizational support
from America’s ToothFairy: National
Children’s Oral Health Foundation,
countless numbers of children from
low-income homes now have healthy
smiles.
Since its founding in 2006, America’s ToothFairy has provided treatment and education to nearly 9.7 million children, according to the organization’s annual report. In addition, the
NCOHF has distributed $14.4 million
in dental products and equipment and
has awarded more than $2.4 million in
grants to clinics. Last year alone, more
than half a million children received
clinical and educational services and
nearly a quarter-million caregivers
received oral health education, the
organization reported.
Results like these gave attendees
at Celebration of Smiles, the annual
event held by America’s ToothFairy,
plenty of reasons to cheer. The gathering was held Thursday evening at

In addition, the Pediatric Dentistry
Clinic of the University of Illinois
College of Dentistry, which provides
service delivery and caregiver education and reinforces the importance
of oral health for the entire family,
received a $5,000 grant sponsored by
GC America. Dr. Marcio de Fonseca,
associate professor and head of the
Department of Pediatric Dentistry of
University of Illinois, was on hand to
receive a check presented by Dr. Mark

with a presentation offered by the
organization’s chair, Ann Bruck, U.S.
professional services and industry
relations manager of 3M Oral Care,
who offered thanks to the many sponsors and volunteers who make the
initiatives of America’s ToothFairy so
successful.

Buffering: I have heard of
it in lectures, but what is it?
The science behind buffering and providing a more predictable patient experience
By Anutra Medical Staff
n Anutra Medical is proud to bring
chairside the ability to buffer your
anesthetic. This science has been
around for more than 50 years in the
medical market, and now you can use
it in your dental practice.
What is buffering?
In the simplest terms, buffering neutralizes acids with bases.
Anutra leverages sodium bicarbonate
to buffer with lidocaine. The result
transforms a practice’s efficiency and
dramatically enhances the patient
experience, according to Anutra.
By bringing the local anesthetic to
the body’s pH, the sharp sting of the
acid is significantly reduced, leading
to a more comfortable injection. Additionally, buffered anesthetic leads
to the patient becoming numb more
predictably, the company asserts.
Buffered anesthetic gets a patient

profoundly numb on the first try and
most patients in just two to three
minutes. Patients with diminished
buffering capacity can get numb more
readily and predictably with buffered
anesthetic.
Anutra is revolutionizing local
anesthetic delivery by coupling
proven science with groundbreaking
innovations.

more than 10 movements per second, thereby enabling the “Dynamic
Depth Scan.” The result is more than
1 million 3-D points per second. This
is thanks to Intelligent Processing,
which filters, processes and compresses the high volume of data so
that models can be calculated faster.
The
high-precision
Smart
Pixel Sensor captures the data at
an extremely high resolution and
assesses the contrast in each pixel.
For every 3-D image, Primescan consolidates more than 50,000 images
per second, thereby offering a level
of scanning precision that has never
been achieved before, according to
Dentsply Sirona.
The new, patent pending technology in the form of optical high
frequency analysis is used to calculate the 3-D points, resulting in
an increased level of accuracy. This
is further supported by an optical
design that has been optimized for the
measuring principle used and by the
mechanical robustness of the optics.
Primescan enables a flexible, intuitive and very simple scan procedure,
enabling faster access to tooth surfaces without the need for significant
tilting. The captured images are calculated in a flash and put together
without any visible scan interruptions. To monitor the scanning process simply and easily and to be able
to assess the model immediately, the
accompanying Primescan AC acquisition center has a modern touchscreen

that pivots and swivels as needed to
ensure it is always set to the most
favorable ergonomic position. Dentists acknowledge the intuitive operation and high level of comfort during
first-time use, which is also greatly
appreciated by patients, the company
asserts.
The new “Acquisition Center” is
a workstation designed for modern
dentistry and with the dentist in
mind. The beautiful, sleek design
comes with a touchpad and a 16:9
wide-format movable touchscreen,
offering you a highly intuitive and
ergonomic work platform, according
to the company. The unit also features
full mobility with a long-life battery.
Simply charge overnight, and you are
ready the next morning for hours of
cable-free operation.
Primescan also scores in terms of
hygienic safety. Thanks to the smooth
surfaces of Primescan and the acquisition center, the hygienically critical areas, which are often difficult
to clean, can be reprocessed safely,
quickly and easily. The intraoral scanner can be subjected to all necessary
hygienic reprocessing (wipe disinfection, autoclaving, hot air sterilization,
high-level disinfection). This is made
possible by three sleeve concepts
(stainless-steel sleeve, stainless-steel
sleeve with disposable window and
disposable sleeves).
An excellent choice for outstanding results: Primescan is your perfect

Hit a Bullseye: New alignment device
stops the guesswork for handheld X-rays
By Flow Dental Staff
n Take the guesswork out of handheld X-ray positioning with the new
Bullseye.
Bullseye mounts onto the acrylic
ring around your handheld X-ray
device, such as the Nomad or
Xray2Go.
Once mounted, you simply slide
the aiming ring on your positioner
along the alignment bar until it nests
within the Bullseye.
With the Bullseye ring, your X-rays
will always be in perfect parallel or
bite wing alignment, and you eliminate cone cutting or costly re-takes,
according to the company.
Bullseye is re-usable and mounts
in seconds. It is available through
your local dealer.
Here in Chicago
For more information on the Bullseye,

Zirconia crown placed with TheraCem
By Alan J. Acierno, DDS
n Clinicians are always looking for
ways to be more efficient without
sacrificing the clinical quality of
the products they use on patients.
One material that allows practitioners to do this is Bisco’s TheraCem
dual-cured, calcium and fluoridereleasing1,
self-adhesive
resin
cement.
TheraCem’s (booth No. 4800)
strength has been proved with a
range of materials: everything from
PFMs to zirconia and lithium disilicate. Having one cement that can be
used in a variety of situations and
with different materials cuts down on
costs and can make procedures easier
on the dentist and staff.
The handling and dual-cure feature of the cement also makes cleanup
simple and offers ease of use in situations where light curing is difficult.

Consider the use of non-surgical laser
applications in treatment of facial esthetics
By Harvey S. Shiffman, DDS
n
Erbium Yag and Neodymium
Yag are two of the most researched
wavelengths in medicine and dentistry. Both of these wavelengths
are found in our Fotona Lightwalker
laser. Smoothlase uses the photothermal capabilities of the Erbium
and Neodymium lasers to convert and
initiate the formation of new collagen
in mucosal tissues and supporting
tissues of the face and lips.
Indications
For patients with age- and lifestylerelated loss of facial volume, elasticity and dryness all caused by loss
of collagen. Also as a preventative
therapy to maintain “young collagen.” Patients who do not want surgical intervention or artificial materials

Facial esthetics are a concern for
most of our dental patients. We can

dren’s Dental Health Month, the
Benco Family Foundation will donate
PRO-SYS® toothbrushes to every Chicago Public School elementary student. In addition, a gift of 40,000
toothbrushes will be made to the
University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC)
College of Dentistry community service programs.
According to Patrick D. Smith,
DMD, MPH, clinical assistant professor, UIC-College of Dentistry:
“The Division of Prevention and
Public Health Sciences supports
community-based initiatives geared
toward increasing access to care and
reducing oral disease of underserved
populations. Our dental students
work with more than 35 community
partners across the state to provide
dental care and oral health education. This donation from the Benco
Family Foundation will further those
experiences and support our partners as they promote oral health in
their respective communities.”
The gifts mark a milestone for the
foundation: More than 1 million toothbrushes donated worldwide. And the
foundation already has big plans for
next year.
“Through our toothbrush donation, the Benco Family Foundation
is excited to build a strong relationship with the Chicago Public
Schools and hopes to bring ‘Lessons
in a Lunchbox: Healthy Teeth Essentials and Facts About Snacks’ for
the second- and third-grade classes
next year during the Chicago Dental Society Midwinter Meeting,” said
Rebecca Binder, executive director.
“This national oral health and nutrition program reaches underserved
elementary school children with a
bright orange lunchbox filled with
all the supplies for healthy teeth and
smiles.”
Since 2015, the Benco Family Foundation has been helping people across
the globe through toothbrush donations with its Buy-One-Give-One program. For every PRO-SYS brand adult
tapered or antimicrobial toothbrush
purchased, the philanthropic arm of
America’s largest family-owned dental distributor donates a toothbrush
to someone in need.
Additionally, the foundation supports Global Smile Foundation’s
efforts to bring first-class surgical
repair to patients with congenital
facial deformities in the developing
world from South America to Africa,
to the Middle East and India.
