Transforming dental care for the elderly
Crest Oral-B Pros in the
Profession grant winner
uses funds to improve oral
care access for elderly with
dementia
Ann Benson Ross, winner of the Crest®
Oral-B® Pros in the Profession® grant for
“Advancing Oral Health in the Community,” is transforming the way elderly in
her community of Mesa, Ariz., and surrounding areas, receive oral care.
A dental hygienist for more than 20
years, Ross used the $5,000 grant to upgrade the Mobile Dentistry of Arizona’s
portable office, provide dental services
to elderly dementia patients who have
limited access to oral care and train staff
so they can continue to help patients
maintain their oral health routines.
Ross was awarded the Crest Oral-B Pros
in the Profession grant to fulfill her goal
of providing preventive care for residents
of local memory care communities.
X-rays, assessments, oral cancer screenings, cleanings and fluoride varnishes
were provided to each eligible resident.
The project was dually devoted to
training caregivers by giving them basic
information about hands-on oral health

care so they could maintain their residents’ daily oral regimens. The handson training was held with patients and
their caregivers at three different times
— morning, evening and before bedtime
— for all residents with mild, moderate
or advanced dementia.
To help maintain a daily oral care
regimen, each participating resident
and caregiver received an Oral-B power
toothbrush as well as Crest and Oral-B
Pro-Health® products, including toothpaste, rinse and floss.
“This project was an enlightening experience on many different levels, from
the interaction with the family members
to the caregivers and patients themselves. It was a wonderful project for me
and all who participated,” Ross said.
“We saw a mixture of oral health concerns from the residents, including poor
oral hygiene, tooth decay, periodontal
disease, gingivitis and ill-fitting dentures. Without the help of Crest Oral-B,
we wouldn’t have been able to address
these needs and help so many people.”
In addition to the patient services and

caregiver training, Ross is producing a
training video to be shared with health
providers throughout the community. It
will include photos and testimonials of
patients who participated in the project.
This video will be given to all memory care communities visited by Mobile
Dentistry of Arizona and will be used to
instruct caregivers on oral hygiene tips
and best practices when working with
dementia patients at every stage of the
condition.
“Over the past few years, through the
Pros in the Profession program, Crest
Oral-B has rewarded deserving professionals — as nominated by their peers
— who truly make an impact on the

oral health of others by supporting the
causes important to them and their communities. As a recipient of this award,
Ann continues to transform patients’
lives, and we are so proud to support her
in this way,” said Dr. Veronica Sanchez,
global scientific communications director, Procter & Gamble.
“We are honored to celebrate the 100year anniversary of the dental hygiene
profession with such an inspiring professional.”
The Pros in the Profession grant furthers Crest Oral-B’s mission to support
dental hygienists as part of its yearlong
program celebrating 100 years of dental
hygiene.

Clinical performance report for
BruxZir Solid Zirconia Crowns and
Bridges during an 18-month period
Purpose

Clinical evaluation protocol

Placement

The purpose of this clinical study, conducted by The Dental Advisor, was to
determine the clinical performance of
BruxZir® Solid Zirconia Crowns and
Bridges (Glidewell Dental Laboratories; Newport Beach, Calif.) during an
18-month period.

At recall time, more than 390 full-contour, monolithic BruxZir restorations
(crowns and bridges) were placed. All
restorations were fabricated at Glidewell
Dental Laboratories. Most of the restorations were cemented with self-adhesive
resin cement or adhesive resin cement.

The following parameters were evaluated at placement: esthetics, marginal
accuracy, fit, interproximal contacts and
occlusion.
Restorations were evaluated on a 1-5 rating scale: 1 = poor, 2 = fair, 3 = good, 4 =
very good, 5 = excellent.

Here in Anaheim
To view the full report, visit www.bruxzir.com. For
more information or to check out BruxZir Solid Zirconia Crowns and Bridges, stop by the Glidewell
Laboratories booth, No. 1348.

Esthetics, marginal accuracy, fit and
interproximal contacts of more than 96
percent of the restorations were rated
excellent at placement. Very few restorations (less than 2 percent) had to be
remade because of improper fit. A few
restorations had light interproximal contacts and had to be remade.
For the category of occlusion, 84 percent of the restorations received an excellent rating. In many cases, the occlusion was light, and in some cases, the
restoration was out of occlusion. Based
on customer feedback, Glidewell Dental
Laboratories designs most of its crowns
light in occlusion.

Results at 18 months
In December 2012, 367 BruxZir restorations were recalled and evaluated.
Of the 367 BruxZir restorations observed at recall (Fig. 1), there were:
• 287 posterior single crowns
• 36 units: 12 three-unit bridges
• 24 units: Six four-unit bridges
• 10 units: Two five-unit bridges
• One three-unit inlay bridge
• Seven implant crowns
Of the 367 restorations, 121 (33 percent)
had been in function for 18 months,
while 246 (67 percent) had been in function for one year (Fig. 2).
The recalled BruxZir restorations were
evaluated in the following categories:
• Resistance to fracture or chipping
• Esthetics
• Resistance to marginal discoloration
• Wear on zirconia and opposing dentition
• Retention
Restorations were evaluated on a 1-5
rating scale: 1 = poor, 2 = fair, 3 = good, 4 =
very good, 5 = excellent.

Axis|SybronEndo
introduces the
TF Adaptive

Here in Anaheim
To learn more about Axis|SybronEndo’s TF
Adaptive and other endodontic supplies, visit www.
tfadaptive.com or stop by the booth, No. 1206.

Scan this code to
learn more about
the TF Adaptive.

Root canal preparation can present
dental professionals with numerous
challenges, ranging from ledge formation to perforations and persistent bacteria.
That’s why Axis|SybronEndo, a leading
manufacturer of endodontic equipment,
instruments and dental supplies, is set to
improve technology in the endodontic
field with the release of its TF Adaptive
instrumentation system.
The
TF
Adaptive
works
with
Axis|SybronEndo’s Elements Motor by
using adaptive motion technology and,
according to the company, will revolutionize the way dentists shape root canals.
It boasts all the features of twisted files
with 70 percent more flexibility and up to
three times as much resistance to cyclic
fatigue as compared with other NiTi files.
The Adaptive Motion relies on a patented algorithm that changes the motion depending upon the load on the file.
When the file is outside the canal, the
motion is rotary. When the file is in canal
(loaded), the motion adapts from rotary
to reciprocation.
As the company says, SybronEndo’s
Adaptive motion is, “Rotary when you
want it; reciprocation when you need it.”
The TF Adaptive uses a minimum
number of files to shape the root canal,
offering a better value for the customer.
In addition, according to the company,
it’s easy to use and well-marked, distinguished by a color-coded setup similar
to a traffic signal (green, yellow and red).
It offers dentists control and reduces the
risk of screw-in effect. The system also
can be used in a majority of cases.
The TF Adaptive system can be beneficial to patients, too, according to the
company.
Its files produce less apical extrusion
of debris than do competitive systems,
granting patients a significant decrease
in postoperative discomfort. It also reduces the probability of separation and
canal transportation or straightening,
preserving the natural anatomy of the
canal and decreasing the effects of overinstrumentation.

to noon today.
BEAUTIFIL Flow Plus combines hybridlike strength and functionality, unique
handling and stackability and a flowable
delivery. Additionally, it has 15 percent
more radiopacity than enamel and offers the benefit of fluoride release and
rechargability. Those interested in seeing
the material firsthand are encouraged to
come check it out at the Shofu booth.
According to Shofu, BEAUTIFIL Flow
Plus represents the next step in the evolution of restorative materials, based on its
convenient flowable delivery system and
its physical properties and functionality
that rival leading hybrid composites.
Brian Melonakos, president of Shofu
Dental, said he has been very pleased
with the success of the product. “We’ve
always known that we have an amazing
product on our hands … but none of us
imagined how quickly it would catch on,”
he said.
Unlike other flowables, BEAUTIFIL Flow
Plus has stay-put handling and physical
properties that allow use on the occlusal
surface and marginal ridge, eliminating
the need to pack a hybrid composite on
top.
A flowable base, liner and final restorative material, BEAUTIFIL Flow Plus is
approved for all indications (Class I–V).
With a smooth, self-leveling consistency,
the material leaves a tight marginal seal
on the bottom and a smooth ready-topolish surface on top. Moreover, Shofu’s
proprietary S-PRG (surface pre-reacted
glass) technology provides sustained fluoride release and recharge that can’t be
found in any other composite material.
BEAUTIFIL Flow Plus is available in two
distinct viscosities. F00 (zero flow) offers
precision stacking, and F03 (low flow) is
an ideal base/liner.
For a limited time only, BEAUTIFIL Flow
Plus is available in two introductory kits.
The standard kit (PN 2000S) offers two
2.2-gram syringes of both viscosities in
shades A2 and A3, and the pedo kit (PN
2000P) offers two 2.2-gram syringes in
both viscosities in shades A1 and bleach
white. Both kits also contain samples of
Shofu’s top-selling products, including
the seventh-generation bonding agent
BeautiBond, One Gloss, Super Snap and
Shofu’s hybrid material, BEAUTIFIL II.
The kit retails for $102.25 (a $160 value).
Stop by the Shofu booth, No. 1128, to see
BEAUTIFIL Flow Plus for yourself.

a whole new online marketing opportunity for your practice to tackle. Facebook,
Google+, Twitter, YouTube, LinkedIn and
Pinterest are only the most obvious platforms you need to consider.
All of this is enough to get your head
spinning and confused about where to
spend your time and marketing dollars.
And because most dentists don’t have

the time to also become Internet marketing gurus, they waste a lot of money and/
or staff time or continue to be frozen by
indecision, afraid to make a mistake.
If this is all too familiar to you and
your practice, take a breath.
Since 1977, when dentists were first allowed to advertise, marketing has been
a part of dentistry. And yes, the Internet has replaced much of the traditional
marketing that dominated dentistry. Yellow Pages, direct mail and local sponsorships have been pushed aside by Google,
database email marketing and social media marketing.
Sure, there are differences, but the fundamental elements of marketing dentistry remain constant. It’s just the means
we use to communicate and share with
prospective patients that has changed.
In fact, the Internet has made it more immediate, more visual, more interactive
and much more instant. You just need to
be more creative leveraging it.
Here are some fundamental marketing
suggestions to help you get your bearings
and get moving in the right direction:
• Focus. Consider all your options and
identify the one area that you are committed to dominate or improve.
• Don’t try to do everything at once.
Your practice has limited resources (your
team) and marketing dollars. Spreading
your staff and budget over too many new
activities is a recipe for them to all fail.
Master one first; then take on others.
• Develop a written plan. Don’t rely on
a conversation with your webmaster or
a string of emails. Include strategy rationale, deliverables and timeframes, and
identify responsibilities.
• Set realistic goals and expectations.
The amount and timeframe for results
(new patients), not to mention the necessary investment, varies based on the
strategy. This will help you stick to your
plan.
• Implement like crazy! The key to success is not always built on the perfect
plan, the best design or the most creative
promotion. Like good dentistry, your online marketing success will be based on
the consistency of your delivery.
We all realize we must embrace the Internet. You just need to remember that
you must be a master of how you use it
and not become a slave to it.
