Handpiece manufacturer
aims for global leadership
TOKYO, Japan — It is no secret that
the years since the global financial crisis
have not been very kind to companies in
Japan. First, the recession slowed business investments significantly down,
then the negative effects of the 2011
tsunami and the massive destruction
it wrought almost brought the world’s
third largest economy to a halt.
For NSK, one of the country’s largest
dental manufacturers, troubles in the
home market are its least concern because the company conducts most of its
business elsewhere.
According to President and CEO Eiichi
Nakanishi, with whom Dental Tribune
International had the opportunity to
speak at the company’s headquarters
in Tochigi, more than 80 percent of the
company’s revenues are now generated
by its operations outside of Japan.
In the last three years, NSK has been
performing particularly well in mature markets such as Europe and North
America, where it boosted its presence
with the opening of its new headquarters near Chicago, despite unfavorable
conditions such as high market saturation and the ongoing decline of the yen
against the dollar.
Since 2009, Nakanishi has also seen
his company regaining its former market shares in Asia through centralized
distribution and after-sales support offered by its new subsidiary in Singapore.
Another significant contributor has
been NSK’s European office in Germany,
which accounted for almost one third of
the 22.2 billion yen ($278 million) in sales
the company reported in 2011.
“That is why economic conditions in
our home market have little or no impact on our overall business. We really
think globally,” Nakanishi explained.
According to the 48-year-old, who has
run the company since 2000, one of the
major reasons for NSK’s strong market
position, even in established markets, is
its dedication to innovation and quality,
combined with the excellent after-sales
service it is able to provide to customers
in almost every country except North
Korea. But this hasn’t always been the
case.
Founded in the 1930s, the company
had a rough start and operations were
completely halted during World War II.
Since the production of dental handpieces resumed in 1951, however, the
company has grown extensively and
now employs more than 700 people in
its Japanese offices in Tochigi and Tokyo.
NSK also still produces most of the
precision parts in-house, which, according to Nakanishi, is one of the reasons
that dentists now identify the company
with high-quality products.
“We employ many good engineers and
marketing people who help us to constantly improve our brand and make it
more attractive to dentists,” he said.

parts in-house.

products, stop by the booth, No. 460.
One of NSK’s more recent innovations,
which was launched at IDS in Cologne
in 2011, for example, is the Ti-Max Z series, a durable premium handpiece that
is purported to have the smallest heads
and necks in the industry, as well as an
exceptionally low noise level and virtually no vibration.
The Surgic Pro surgical micromotor
has also received much interest, particularly by dental implant surgeons. This
device is distributed alongside implant
systems by major implant manufacturers.
NSK asserts it pays close attention to
the needs of its customers, a philosophy
that has resulted in products such as the
S-max pico, which was developed solely
for the treatment of patients with smaller mouths, such as children.
Moving into other markets is conceiv-
able but unlikely to happen anytime
soon, according to Nakanishi. Even
though his company has begun to enter new areas in the last decade with the
launch of instruments such as ultrasonic scalers and polishers, its core business
will remain dental handpieces and other
small-motor equipment.
“When it comes to handpieces, we have
produced more innovations than our
competitors,” Nakanishi said. “Our goal
is to become the No. 1 company worldwide in this segment.”

BeautiBond is a seventh-generation
bonding agent developed by Shofu. This
new product contains unique dual-adhesive monomers that work independently
to produce equal bond strengths for dentin and enamel. Available in convenient
unit doses, BeautiBond offers easy onestep, one-coat applications.

“I have been a seventh-generation user
from the day it was introduced and have
used every one on the market, and I am
telling you — this one is hot, and it is getting hotter,” Glazer told Dental Tribune.
BeautiBond’s enhanced bond strength
rivals that of leading sixth-generation
adhesives, but with the convenience of a
seventh-generation material.
“It will definitely get people who have
been hesitating to switch. In fact, it
makes ‘the leap’ so much easier, and ‘the
leap’ is in quotes because there is no leap
really,” he said.
Glazer said he likes BeautiBond because it incorporates two separate chemistries that bond to both the dentin and
the enamel. He also likes the fact that it

works with a very low micrometer thickness, leaving no gap of potential porosity
for his patients.
The light-cure, self-etching adhesive
has a film thickness of less than 5 micrometers for better adaptation of restorative materials and is ideal for highly
esthetic and minimally invasive restorations.
Another huge plus, Glazer said, is the
ease of use the product offers. BeautiBond requires very few steps and the
unit dose delivery is stable, providing for
excellent chairside handling.
“There is no fumbling, no mixing, no
shaking,” Glazer said. “Just look at the
steps card — it is as easy as one, two,
three.”
A single application of BeautiBond
requires just 30 seconds for a durable,
reliable bond. High bond strengths are
achieved because of BeautiBond’s HEMAfree composition, resulting in virtually
no gingival blanching, which is normally
caused by the combination of HEMA and
the acid monomer.
With excellent biocompatibility and
bonding durability, BeautiBond is an
all-in-one adhesive that enables etching,
priming and bonding in one simple step
for a wide range of applications.
BeautiBond can be used with any composite resin on the market and is ideal for
use with Shofu’s Beautifil® II composite
restorative material. Beautifil II, designed
for any application, is wear-resistant with
low shrinkage and has a “chameleon-like
quality that allows for a harmonious
blend of shades with natural tooth color,
yielding ideal fluorescence and optical characteristics that mimic natural
teeth,” according to a review by Glazer.
A curious practitioner who is always
looking for increased efficiency, Glazer
typically tests half a dozen or so new
products every month.
“I want things that are faster, easier
and better, not only for me, the doctor,
but also for the ultimate end user — the
patient,” he said. “After all, we’re in the
smile business, so we like to keep everybody smiling.”

Stop by and check out the BIOLASE Total
Technology Pavilion for yourself. It can be
found at booth Nos. 2518/2519.
EPIC standard set for diode lasers
New to the Total Technology Pavilion
this year is the EPIC Total Diode Solution,
the newest laser from BIOLASE. It’s described by the company as being packed
with one category-exclusive feature after
another, setting a new standard in diode
laser performance and value.
A graphical touchscreen gives dentists
fingertip access to as many as 20 common soft-tissue procedure presets —
plus 20-minute full-mouth whitening
and FDA-cleared temporary pain relief.
Additionally, EPIC can be a financial
boon for many practices because of its
integrated, FDA-cleared protocols for
laser hygiene and perio as an adjunct to
scaling and root planning.
In addition, a new ComfortPulse setting reduces pulse length to as little as
one ten-millionth of a second to avoid
heat buildup at the surgical site. This
provides for fast tissue cutting with less
patient discomfort.
3Shape TRIOS digital scanner, full
range of WaterLase all-tissue lasers
Another addition to the Total Technology Pavilion is the 3Shape TRIOS digital intraoral scanner system. The TRIOS
digital solution, which includes a handheld scanner, operator’s control cart and
intuitive software, provides faster impression taking, improved accuracy and
clinical results, reduced need for retakes
and less adjustment and grinding.
According to 3Shape, TRIOS’ unique
features include spray-free scanning,
high accuracy optimized for an extensive range of indications, clinical scan
NewTom compact CBCT technology
Finally, the Total Technology Pavilion
has full-size models of NewTom ConeBeam Computed Tomography (CBCT)
technology. The technology is relatively
new to dentistry and is a more compact
version of standard medical CT imaging
that uses a cone-shaped X-ray beam to
obtain a multitude of radiographs that
construct digital 3-D models of maxillofacial anatomies.
The NewTom VGi is reported by the
company to have the finest image quality of any CBCT system in dentistry, with
a minimal dose of radiation to patients.
Dentists using the NewTom CBCT technology report increased treatment plan
acceptance, improved diagnostic capabilities and other advantages, according
to the company.
A highlight of the Total Technology Pavilion is the EPIC Total Diode Solution, the newest laser
from BIOLASE.

the dental lab and intuitive Smart-Touch
user interfacing.
Other products in the pavilion include
WaterLase iPlus, WaterLase MDX and WaterLase MD Turbo, BIOLASE’s full range
of all-tissue laser devices. According to
the company, WaterLase iPlus represents
a pinnacle of 20 years of research to improve cutting speed to match that of a
high-speed drill, with a fraction of the
discomfort and ancillary challenges a
dental drill creates.
The WaterLase MDX and WaterLase MD
Turbo are described as being ideal for
practices seeking a basic, lower-cost entry point for all-tissue laser dentistry.
“Although the WaterLase MD platform
was first released in 2004, there have
been many improvements and refinements, including a more flexible fiber,
faster-cutting handpieces and more,”
said Dmitri Boutoussov, BIOLASE chief
technology officer and longtime head
of the company’s research and development department.

Photo essay: BruxZir Solid Zirconia
meets an anterior esthetic challenge
By Michael C. DiTolla, DDS, FAGD
This article illustrates recent advancements by Glidewell Laboratories to improve the esthetic properties of BruxZir®
Solid Zirconia restorations. As the lab’s
research and development department
refines its processes, improving the material’s translucency, the esthetics continue to improve.
First appointment
We will replace the PFM crowns on teeth
#8 and #9 (Fig. 1) with BruxZir Solid Zirconia crowns (Glidewell Laboratories).
First, we take the shade. I use the VITA
Easyshade® Compact (VITA Zahnfabrik),
which displays the shade in both VITA
Classical and VITA 3D-Master® shades.
Next, I hold the selected 2M1 3D-Master
shade tab to the tooth, along with the
1M1 3D-Master shade tab for contrast.
We photograph the shade tabs in the
mouth. I use an Ultradent syringe to
place PFG gel (Steven’s Pharmacy) into
the sulcus of teeth #8 and #9.
Next, I use my STA Single Tooth
Anesthesia System® device (Milestone

Laboratories booth, No. 1348.
Scientific) to anesthetize teeth #8 and #9.
The Razor® Carbide bur (Axis Dental)
easily cuts through porcelain and metal
substructures, and when used in combination with my KaVo ELECTROtorque
handpiece (KaVo Dental), it easily cuts
through the existing PFM. I torque the
crown with a Christensen Crown Remover (Hu-Friedy).
After using a periodontal probe to
ensure I have enough biologic width to
safely remove some tissue (Fig. 2), I use
my NV MicroLaser™ (Discus Dental) to
remove 1.5 mm of tissue. With the margins exposed, I use an 856-025 bur (Axis
Dental) and KaVo ELECTROtorque handpiece to drop the margins to the new gingival level.
My assistant relines BioTemps® Provisionals (Glidewell Laboratories) on teeth
#8 and #9 with Luxatemp provisional
material (DMG). Using a thin, perforated
diamond disc (Axis Dental), we open the
gingival embrasures to avoid blunting
the interproximal papilla and make sure
the gingival margins aren’t overextended and the emergence profile is flat. We
use TempBond® Clear™ (Kerr Corp.) to cement the BioTemps and loupes to inspect
around the temps and gingival embrasures for excess cement.
Second appointment
After two weeks, we remove the temps
and clean the preps with a KaVo
SONICflex scaler.
After trimming the gingival margin
with the diode laser, I place an Ultrapak®
cord #00 (Ultradent), cutting the cord
intraorally on the lingual to avoid any
overlap. I place a second cord (Ultrapak
cord #2E) before refining the preparation.
As I pack the top #2E cord on tooth #8,
the top cord on tooth #9 exposes the
margin (Fig. 3). Now we can begin finishing the preps using a fine grit 856-025 bur.
Two moistened ROEKO Comprecap
Anatomic compression caps (Coltène/
Whaledent) are placed on the preps, and
the patient bites with medium pressure
for eight to 10 minutes. The Comprecaps
are removed and the top cords pulled. We
syringe medium body impression material around the preparations for the impression and take a bite registration. The
temporaries are then replaced.
Third appointment
After two weeks, the temps are off, the
BruxZir crowns are approved and we
place a layer of desensitizer on the teeth
(G5™ All-Purpose Desensitizer [Clinician’s Choice]). I use a Warm Air Tooth
Dryer (A-dec) after applying both coats
of the G5, while my assistant places ZPRIME™ Plus (Bisco) inside the crowns.
We then load the crowns with a resinmodified glass ionomer cement (RelyX™
Luting Plus Automix [3M/ESPE]) and seat
them, using a pinewood stick (Almore
International) to ensure they are fully
seated and the same length.
In this “after” picture (Fig. 4), there
isn’t any porcelain on these BruxZir
crowns. I’m not suggesting you suddenly
switch all of your anterior restorations
to BruxZir crowns, but you may want to
consider using it for patients with parafunctional habits or old PFMs, where
an esthetic improvement is essentially
guaranteed.

PIPS Laser Endo harnesses
the power of the LightWalker
Dual-wavelength, all-tissue Er:YAG & Nd:YAG laser cleanses canals
By Technology4Medicine Staff
PHAST™ Laser Endo (PIPS™) harnesses
the power of the proprietary LightWalker
Er:YAG laser (both devices exclusively
available from Technology4Medicine,
www.T4Med.com), to create photoacoustic shock waves within the cleaning and
debriding solutions in the canal.
The containment of the shockwaves
thoroughly streams these solutions
three-dimensionally through the entire
canal system, enhancing their effectiveness. The canals and subcanals are left
clean and the dentinal tubules are free of
smear layer.
It is a well-established fact that different dental procedures require different
laser wavelengths. Wavelength is important to clinical outcomes because specific body tissues interact in different ways
depending on the particular laser source.
The LightWalker is a true dualwavelength system. With the choice of
two complementary wavelengths, LightWalker is the “universal” laser. Practically all laser-assisted dental treatments
can be performed with either the most
highly absorbed Er:YAG laser wavelength
or the selectively absorbed, deeper penetrating Nd:YAG laser wavelength.
There are many advantages to using the LightWalker and its proprietary
PHAST (Photo Active Systems Technology) and PIPS for endodontic procedures:
• First is the entire root canal and subcanal system is more effectively cleaned
and debrided than with traditional
instrument-only techniques, reducing
the risk of re-infection.
• The minimally invasive nature of
PIPS preserves more tooth endoskeleton
than traditional instrument techniques
because filing can be limited to as small
as ISO #20 or #25, maintaining more
post-restoration tooth strength.
• Sub-ablative power levels eliminate
the risks of thermal damage, ledging and
demineralization inherent to other laser
endodontic methods.
• Because the PIPS tip is inserted only
into the coronal opening and not into
the canal, there is no risk of tip breakage
from curved canals or unwanted apical extrusion of chemical irrigants, as is
possible with standard laser endodontic
methods.
• Less filing time and soaking time for
chemical agents can significantly reduce
treatment time while being more effective. The SEM images (right) demonstrate
the effectiveness of PHAST Laser Endo.

NOMAD Pro 2 launches
Here in Anaheim
By Aribex Staff
For a demonstration of the new NOMAD Pro 2,
stop by the Aribex booth, No. 2534.
For almost a decade, Aribex has been
quietly ripping the X-ray system off the
wall and putting it into the hands of the
dental team. Aribex manufactures a
handheld and completely mobile X-ray
system called the NOMAD. One NOMAD
does the work of multiple wall-mounted
X-ray systems and can save the typical
dental practice thousands of dollars in
equipment costs.
Moreover, because the NOMAD allows
the dental team to safely and effectively
stay with their patients during X-ray
procedures, a bitewing series can be
completed in half the time required by a
wall-mounted system.
Unlike the conventional wall-mount
and portable X-ray systems, the NOMAD
is lightweight, rechargeable (batterypowered) and can go anywhere. Dental
professionals around the world have chosen the NOMAD as their preferred X-ray
device, both in and out of the office, with
almost 12,000 NOMADs now in use.
Building upon the successes of previous innovation and design, Aribex is
excited to introduce the NOMAD Pro 2,
which provides the same mobile convenience and cost savings as previous models while also significantly increasing durability and performance.
“The NOMAD Pro 2 is exactly what our
customers want,” said Ken Kaufman, general manager of Aribex. “We asked our
customers how we could improve our
marquee product. We carefully listened,
designed prototypes, asked for feedback
and iterated until we met their requests.
The end result of all of that hard work is
the NOMAD Pro 2. It is simply the world’s
best handheld X-ray system yet.”
The Pro 2’s newly designed battery
handset with infrared connectors, to-

gether with a new charging cradle, improves the system’s durability and boosts
battery performance.
“One consistent comment we heard
from our customers focused on the
charging station,” Kaufman said. “Our
engineers spent many hours working
with customers and researching new solutions. Our final design is a big improvement, and our customers will agree.”
Durability is further enhanced by a reengineered user interface that is more
scratch- and moisture-resistant.
“The operatory environment can be
hard on equipment, more so with our
products that are easily carried from
operatory to operatory,” Kaufman said.
“The NOMAD Pro 2 will stand up to repetitive antiseptic and cross-contamination control.”
In a digital world, the NOMAD Pro 2 is
specifically designed for digital sensors,
although it works just as well with phosphor plates and traditional film. The dental team will appreciate how quickly and
easily settings can be changed for different types of shots.
The Pro 2 weighs 5.5 lbs/2.5 kg and delivers a lower dosage exposure than some
wall-mounted systems. True to its historical commitment to ALARA and safety
for both the operator and patient, Aribex
continues to use its proprietary shielding
compound and backscatter shield to render the NOMAD as safe, and in some instances safer, than traditional wall-hung
intra-oral X-ray devices, as validated by
more than 30 independent studies and
evaluations .
In addition, Aribex offers an extended
service program called the Total Care
Plan. This annual program provides for
repairs that fall outside the standard
warranty coverage, along with a no-cost
“loaner” device shipped overnight to
the front steps of the owner’s practice to
avoid any downtime.
Packaged with re-verification services and battery replacement coverage,
the Total Care Plan is an option for all
NOMAD customers.
To learn more, contact your equipment
dealer, an Aribex sales representative
or visit the company’s website at www.
aribex.com.
“We’re excited to show our customers our new innovations and enhancements,” Kaufman said. “We invite our
customers to visit our booth, No. 2534,
at the CDA Presents for a special demonstration of our new NOMAD Pro 2.”

It’s not just the outstanding speakers,
cutting-edge presentations or the diversity of concurrent lectures, which are
critical in ensuring that everyone (team,
hygienists, clinicians and technicians)

has something to see that he or she is
interested in during every time slot. In
reality, it’s “The Event” — the positive
attitude of those in attendance and the
enthusiasm of everyone involved.
It is infectious! People have commented that they almost learn as much in the
halls as they do in the lectures because of
the quality of the attendees.
The IACA is one of the few places where
you can see presentations from the giants of dentistry as well as from up-andcomers who may someday be the giants
of dentistry for their generation of dentists. Many of the best presentations are
given by people you won’t see anywhere
else — because they don’t fall into the
status quo of accepted topics or information.
Many meetings actively prevent controversial advances in dentistry from
being presented, denying you the chance
to make your own decisions. I guess the
easiest way to put it is that the IACA is 10
years ahead of current dentistry — literally, what you will hear is the “future”
of dentistry, and those who jump on the
train early will be light years ahead of
other dentists in the field who only attend other meetings.
Lastly, the other thing I think is so wonderful about the meeting is the family
atmosphere that is present. The IACA organizers seem to always pick great locations in order for dentists to bring their
families with them for a vacation.
Calgary, Alberta, Canada, where this
year’s meeting is being held from August
1 to 3, is filled with so much for people of
all ages to do — not to mention the beautiful mountain scenery that is there.
This is a great way to not only write off
your vacation but get the best of worlds
— a great vacation and a great education.
Don’t be one of those people who, every year after missing the IACA meeting
and finding out how incredible it was
from those who did attend, says, “I wish
I would have gone!” Make sure you don’t
miss out.
I’m looking forward to seeing you at
the IACA!
To attend
The 2013 IACA will take place Aug. 1–3 at the The
Calgary Telus Convention Centre in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. For more information or to register,

ington State Convention Center.
In addition to organizing a lineup of
world-class dental educators, a number
of social events are planned to help attendees make the most of their time in
the city.
“One of the things that sets the AACD’s
conferences apart from other meetings
is our incredible social events,” said Ron
Goodlin, AACD president.
“Being social at AACD 2013 is almost as
important as attending workshops and
lectures. Connecting with like-minded
professionals and being inspired by
their work enhances your perspective on
the field. Networking opportunities in
Seattle are everywhere — and they’re a
valuable part of your conference experience!”
On April 24, to kick off this year’s
annual meeting, the AACD will host
an evening welcome reception at the
Experience Music Project (EMP) Museum, which is located at the base of the
Seattle Space Needle. The reception is included in attendees’ tuition.
At the EMP, attendees will have a
chance learn about music’s impact
throughout history. The EMP will help
attendees explore musical revolutions
from jazz to blues to the birth of rock ‘n’
roll and hip-hop.
On April 25, the AACD Charitable
Foundation will host the Celebration
of Smiles fundraiser, which benefits
the AACD Charitable Foundation’s Give
Back a Smile (GBAS) program. GBAS helps
restore the smiles and lives of domestic
violence survivors through the help of
volunteer dentists and dental teams.
Celebration of Smiles will take place
at the Tap House Grill, which is walking
distance from the Washington State Convention Center. The Tap House is a Seattle
staple that offers more than 160 beers on
tap, including local craft brews. Wine and
cocktails will also be available.
Tickets for the event can be purchased
through the AACD’s online registration
system at www.aacdconference.com.
In addition to the main events, there
are other opportunities to be social in
