‘WID Rise’ brings back annual breakfast
during the Chicago Midwinter Meeting
By Glidewell Dental Staff
n The 2023 Chicago Dental Society (CDS) Midwinter Meeting served
as the backdrop for a return of
the Women in Dentistry (WID) Rise
annual breakfast, held Feb. 23 at the
luxurious LondonHouse Chicago.
Conceived in 2013, the breakfast
has become an inspirational gathering of female leaders attending the
CDS Midwinter Meeting, enjoying
enthusiastic support from company
sponsors in providing an exciting,
interactive annual event.
Hosted in its ninth year by Glidewell and the Dental Trade Alliance
(DTA), organizers and invitees were
pleased to reunite after a pandemicinduced hiatus.
“We’re honored to host this year’s
event and participate in the renewal
of its growing tradition,” said Stephenie Goddard, CEO of Glidewell,
and Amy Moorman, vice president of
operations at DTA.
“It’s invigorating to see and learn
from so many passionate, accomplished individuals.”
Despite a notable growth of
women among dentist graduates,
representation within the dental
industry remains distinctly onesided — whether exploring practices
and laboratories; manufacturing and
research communities; or publications, lecture podiums and university
faculties.
“Women need to support each
other,” said Valerie Berger, program
co-founder and director of business development–dental at BroadcastMed. “Although the gender and
ethnicity composition of the dental
industry is changing, it remains a
male-dominated profession across

the wide spectrum of professional
positions within the industry.”
WID Rise is a not-for-profit platform that supports, inspires, enriches
and empowers the leadership role of
women professionals in the field of
dentistry. Members are committed

to advancing the voice of women
dental professionals and celebrating their success through education,
scholarships, networking events and
national recognition.
Formerly known as Women in
Dental Technology (WIDT), WID Rise
rebranded in 2020 to reflect the
organic attraction of clinical professionals to its foundational fellowship
of laboratory professionals. Organizers are assembling a board of directors to continue to elevate awareness
and expand their scope of positive
influence.

Introducing DS Core: How to simplify
your digital dentistry workflow and
transform your dental practice
By Dentsply Sirona Staff
n The advancement of digital dentistry has revolutionized the dental
industry. Although, as the digital universe continues to expand — through
new technology, tools and services
— it’s understandably becoming more
complex.
To streamline digital dentistry,
Dentsply Sirona developed DS Core,
a cloud-based solution that connects
your digital solutions and services on
one secure, collaborative platform.

All patient media in one place

For many years, dental practices have
been collecting and managing digital
patient media in various formats,
including JPEG, MP4 video, 2-D X-rays
and 3-D scans.
Traditionally, patient files are
stored in disparate locations across
multiple servers, making it difficult to
access patient data efficiently and use
them effectively.
With DS Core, you can have a
comprehensive patient media library
that integrates your patient case files
in one location to support all your
workflows.
By storing all digital media in one
place, DS Core creates a singular view
of a patient by automatically uploading Dentsply Sirona scans and provides the option to manually upload
competitive scan data.

Cloud-enabled collaboration

With its embedded X-rays and scans
viewer, DS Core improves communication between dentists and simplifies collaboration with specialists,
partners and labs.
With a click of a button, you can
share patient case files and recipients
can access the platform without paying or signing up for storage.
Finally, collaboration with skilled
partner labs is highly accessible due
to DS Core Create, a design service
where you can request ready-to-print
files for a growing variety of indications with Primeprint, such as nightguards or models.

Digital data enables constant
connectivity

Since the platform is accessible via
web browser and requires no instal-

lation, DS Core provides 24/7/365
access to patients records on different devices across your practice or

outside of it. Once you have all your
digital patient records in DS Core,
you essentially have a digital twin of
each patient.

What’s next for the digital
dentistry universe

With DS Core, you’ll feel empowered through excellent connectivity, high efficiency and support in

providing better patient care. Dentsply Sirona digital services already
power more than 650 million digitally
enabled patient cases every year
across a range of indications, and DS
Core brings all of these services
together.

3-D printing simplified with
Primeprint powered by DS Core
By Dentsply Sirona Staff
n 3-D printing in dentistry is on
the rise and with good reason. With
advancements in additive manufacturing, dental professionals can now
produce surgical guides, splints and
models quickly and cost-effectively
without compromising on the quality
of similar manual methods.
However, while there are clear
benefits, the challenge for many in
adopting this technology is that 3-D
printers have complex processes, and
the printing and post-processing can
be extremely messy and inconvenient.
Dentsply Sirona’s Primeprint solution was designed to address these
challenges. Launched in mid- 2022,
Primeprint Solution is a highly automated, end-to-end, medical grade 3-D
printing system that simplifies 3-D
printing with:

Automation reducing handling
times and enabling delegation

With RFID tagging, Primeprint automatically detects the material and
washing containers without any need
for contact.
With the easy visual guidance on
the display screen synched to the
RFID tags and automation within the
units, including a robotic arm moving the build plate to the respective
process step, there is limited manual
work besides moving the Primeprint
box and removing the support structures from the printed appliances
only once fully cured.

Intelligent software designed for
repeatable and accurate printed
dental appliances

This smart hardware and software
solution is optimized for dental applications using its inLab CAM Software. With a few automated steps, you
prepare the fully constructed application in the CAM software.
The software controls all necessary print and post-processing steps
and automatically incorporates the
requirements regarding alignment,
support, and post-processing for each
print object.

with the skin. This means no gloves
are necessary when printing with
Primeprint.

Ready-to-print files and
seamless integration with
DS Core

Powered by DS Core, Primeprint is one
of the first devices specifically built to

integrate into Dentsply Sirona’s cloud
solution. Designs with Primeprint can
be completed with CEREC and InLab
software, but Primeprint can become
even easier with the full delegation
of the CAD workflow to our design
service in DS Core, DS Core Create.
DS Core Create provides you with
easy access to ready-to-print designs
created by expert lab technicians
directly in the cloud platform.

Eliminate secondary decay with
Shofu’s bioactive Giomer restoratives
By Shofu Dental Staff
n Shofu Dental created the proprietary filler particle Giomer more than
20 years ago to offer products that
provide a bioactive and therapeutic
alternative to the inert restorative
materials available then — and now.
Secondary decay is the main factor
for the failure of restorations.1 Giomer
technology can release and recharge
six different beneficial ions. Together,
these ions have been clinically proven
to inhibit plaque, neutralize acid and
eliminate secondary decay, combining bioactive and therapeutic benefits
not available in competitive products.
An eight-year independent clinical study recorded a 100 percent
retention rate, no secondary caries,
no failures and no postoperative sensitivity. 2
As stated by Dr. Gordon Christensen, “Composites usually do not
have cariostatic properties, and
microbes are free to create new caries lesions in the wide-open margins

Here in Chicago

line of Giomer products and to receive

of restorations.”3
Giomer technology protects the
margin of the tooth with the release
and recharge of the healthful ions,
eliminating secondary decay.
Giomer technology restoratives

also offer picture-perfect esthetics,
according to the company. The nanohybrid-sized particles provide the
high level of polishability dentists
have come to expect in today’s premium restorative materials. Shofu’s
unique filler structure gives Giomer
restoratives the light transmission
and diffusion properties of dentin and
enamel to blend well with surrounding dentition without the complex layering techniques required by many
competitors.
Shofu Dental knows that the price
of bioactive and therapeutic Giomer
products has to be affordable for all
dentists, especially those who treat
the underserved. To that goal, Giomer

products are usually 30 percent less
expensive than many name-brand
competitors, the company asserts.
Shofu invites you to try its bioactive Giomer technology products to
determine whether they suit your
practice and your patients.
The entire line of Giomer products
is available at Shofu’s booth, No. 2808.
While there, get the Chicago Midwinter show special — buy four Giomer
composites and get one free. You can

Shaun Keating: Passion for dentistry
By Keating Dental Lab Staff
n If you knew Shaun Keating when
he was a teenager in Huntington
Beach, Calif., in the late ’70s, it would
not be a surprise to discover he heads
up one of the biggest dental laboratories in the United States.
Using
custom-made
football
mouthguards, fabricated by his
brother while attending dental
school, Keating became very curious
about the dental industry.
When his brother became head of
his senior class at the University of
Southern California’s dental school,
Keating was inspired to pursue a
career of his own in the industry. It
clearly proved to be a good decision,
as he quickly rose through the ranks
from waxer and metal finisher to
dental ceramist until becoming the
crown and bridge manager for a major
laboratory.
From there, the next step was
logical: Start his own laboratory.

Patented Crysta molecule powers ACTIVA
Presto, Pulpdent’s latest bioactive restorative
Chemical technology
allows for first-ever
universal light-cure
bioactive restorative
with smile zone esthetics

Here in Chicago
To check out Pulpdent’s ACTIVA Presto
for yourself, stop by booth No. 4008.

By Pulpdent Staff
n Pulpdent, a dental researcher and
manufacturer, has announced that its
patented Crysta MCP technology is
available in ACTIVA Presto, the company’s universal light-cure bioactive
restorative. Crysta allows ACTIVA
Presto to actively promote the health
of restored teeth while also meeting
the highest esthetic standards of
restorative dentistry — a first for dental material science.
“ACTIVA Presto and Crysta have
the potential to impact millions of
AD

patients worldwide by significantly
improving the outcomes of dental
restorative procedures while also
meeting today’s esthetic demands,”
said Pulpdent Executive Manager
Lew Berk.
Crysta is the trade name for methacrylate-functionalized
calcium
phosphate (MCP), a bioactive molecule developed over the course of six
years by the Pulpdent research team.
When placed in a dental composite,
Crysta facilitates a hydroxyapatite

bridge between tooth and composite. It also enables top-tier esthetics,
which lets dentists use bioactive
composites in the smile zone without
compromise.
“We realized that active dental
materials were the future and began
investing heavily in bioactive dental
research more than 20 years ago,”
said Pulpdent President Fred Berk.
Crysta, which facilitates tooth
remineralization through the transfer and precipitation of calcium, fluoride and phosphate, is the second
major breakthrough by the Pulpdent
research team in the realm of biointeractive dental material research.
The first breakthrough came in 2013
with the release of dual-cure ACTIVA
BioACTIVE-RESTORATIVE, the first
durable, esthetic, bioactive restorative suitable for both dentin and
enamel replacement.
While
ACTIVA
BioACTIVERESTORATIVE continues to be

widely used in posterior restorations,
Crysta-containing ACTIVA Presto
has multiple shades and can be freely
used in the anterior and posterior.
Moreover, both ACTIVA BioACTIVE-RESTORATIVE and ACTIVA
Presto can be used together, giving dentists powerful new ways to
restore teeth and protect patients
against secondary caries.
ACTIVA Presto is the first bioactive, light-cure, universal restorative.
It has unique stackable handling,
making it a restorative material without a peer.
ACTIVA Presto also benefits from
Pulpdent’s proprietary rubberized
resin and moisture-friendly technology, which ensure durability and
worry-free placement.

AG.Live: The basis for the
perfect digital workflow
By Amann Girrbach Staff
n
With its AG.Live cloud platform, Amann Girrbach is creating
the basis for an optimal digital workflow across the entire dental process
chain, thus revolutionizing collaboration between the dental practice and
the laboratory.
The workflow management system not only connects dentists and
dental technicians, but also Amann
Girrbach’s machines, processes and
systems with each other.
“The potentials offered by AG.Live
are sensational. AG.Live simplifies
collaboration in an unprecedented
manner ― between the practices and
the laboratories, but also between us
and our customers. It has never been
easier to receive advice tailored to
each patient’s individual case at the
touch of a button, or to access support from our service at the click of a
mouse,” said Michael Rütten, director
of digital products and user experience at Amann Girrbach.

Managing patient cases
centrally and collaborating
across disciplines

With AG.Live, patient cases are
managed centrally in compliance
with the GDPR and HIPPA and can
be accessed across disciplines by all
parties ― from the laboratory to the
dentist.
This makes coordination among
each other far easier: for example,
in the case of special circumstances
or anomalies, the users involved can
exchange information with each
other directly on the platform, including the necessary files. Splitting or
outsourcing work is also simplified.
“For example, the design of a
restoration can be performed by the
dental laboratory via our Ceramill
design software and subsequently
taken over directly by the dentist,”
Rütten said.
AG.Live offers a 100 percent integrated, seamless workflow from A
to Z and, in addition to considerable
savings in time and costs, provides
a secure, validated workflow above
all else.
“It is also important for us to give
users the option of being able to integrate third-party products such as
intraoral scanners from other manu-

facturers. AG.Live therefore offers all
the advantages of an open workflow
for commissioning work, such as
creating the design of the restoration,
right through to assigning complete
fabrication while at the same time
offering maximum security due to
our comprehensive process validation, thus making it easy to use and
compatible,” he said.

Status messages directly to the
mobile phone

From material management to software updates to support tickets, connecting Ceramill machines to AG.Live
provides numerous benefits.
AG.Live also offers numerous simplifications in terms of machine main-

tenance or service. By connecting the
Amann Girrbach Ceramill machines
to AG.Live, it is easy to obtain an
update on the status of the machines
as well as the processed orders — from
any location and at any time. Information, warnings or error messages
are reported directly to the stored
telephone number.
“These messages are a feature
that provides additional freedom and
safety, especially when the machines
are working in automated mode — no
matter where the user is at the time,
be it in the laboratory or on the couch
at home.” said Rütten.
No matter whether this involves
registered machines, software or
CAD/CAM materials, AG.Live can be

Chicago Midwinter Meeting — February 24 & 25, 2023

Innovations to expand your vision
By Designs for Vision Staff
n Designs for Vision has launched
several game-changing loupe and
headlights designed to change the
way you work for the better.
One of Designs for Vision’s several
new product lines includes the new
patented Panoramic Field Loupes (US
pat. 8928975B2).
The Panoramic Loupes represent
the most significant advancement in
telescope design in more than 100
years, according to the company. The
viewable areas are twice as large as
prismatic expanded field designed
loupes and up to five times greater
than Galilean loupes.
Panoramic Field Loupes provide
unprecedented field of view, clarity,
definition and color, the company
asserts.
Are you experiencing back or neck
pain or want to prevent musculoskeletal injuries by improving your posture? The Infinity VUE Loupes may
be your answer.
The Infinity VUE allows you to
keep your head in a neutral position

while the loupe does the bending for
you. The Infinity VUE is available in
3.0x, 3.5x and 4.5x magnifications.
Designs for Vision has also added
the Micro 3.0EF to the award-winning
Micro Series Loupes. The Micro 3.0EF
has a field of view of 100 mm and
weighs less than 70 grams.

The Micro Series includes the
REALITY 5 Star rated Micro 3.5EF
Scopes and Micro 4.5EF Scopes, utilizing an optical design that reduces
the size of the prismatic telescope by
50 percent and reduces the weight
by 40 percent while providing an
expanded field view of the oral cavity.

Designs for Vision is also introducing patented (US pat. 8,851,709
and RE46,463) hands-free infrared
technology with the WireLess IR HDi
and the Micro IR HDi headlights. The
patented IR feature allows you to
operate the headlight without touching the system.
The IR headlights use a built-in
infrared signal to allow you to turn
the light on or off simply and safely.
Onboard biometrics sense the position of the headlight to filter out unintended signals while working.
You can see the Visible Difference
yourself by visiting booth No. 1612
here at the Chicago Midwinter Meeting, or you can contact the company to
arrange a visit in your office by calling (800) 345-4009 or emailing info@
