You’re in the city for a few days. No
need to stay inside the hotel and the convention center all the time. Why not get
out and see a thing or two?
After all, the city of San Francisco is
famous for its scenic beauty, cultural
attractions, diverse communities and
world-class cuisine. This very walkable
city is dotted with landmarks recognized
throughout the world: the Golden Gate
Bridge, cable cars, Alcatraz and the largest Chinatown in the United States.
A stroll of the city’s streets can lead
from Union Square to North Beach to
Fisherman’s Wharf, with neighborhoods
to explore at every turn.
And to top it all off, who doesn’t like to

save a little money every now and then?
The San Francisco Travel Association
is offering a collection of 48 special offers and deals from hotels, restaurants,
retailers, museums, tours, transportation companies and others in a collection
called the “San Francisco Value Guide.”
Printable offers are available online at
www.sanfrancisco.travel/offers.
The booklet version is available free
at the San Francisco Visitor Information
Center at 900 Market St. in Hallidie Plaza,
lower level, near the Powell Street cable
car turnaround.

For almost a decade, Aribex has been

wall and putting it into the hands of the

dental team with its handheld and completely mobile X-ray system, called the
NOMAD.
According to the company, one
NOMAD does the work of multiple wallmounted X-ray systems, which can save
the typical dental practice thousands of
dollars in equipment costs. Moreover, because the NOMAD enables dental team
members 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 wallmounted system.
Unlike
conventional
wall-mount
and portable X-ray systems, the
NOMAD is lightweight, rechargeable
(battery-powered) and can go anywhere.
Dental professionals around the world
have been choosing the NOMAD as their
preferred X-ray device, in and out of the
office, with almost 13,000 NOMADs now
in use.
Building upon the successes of previous innovation and design, Aribex is excited to introduce the NOMAD Pro 2, providing the same mobile convenience and
cost savings as previous models while
increasing durability and performance.
“The 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 listened, designed
prototypes, asked for feedback and iterated until we met their requests. The end
result of all of that hard work is the Pro
2. It’s simply the world’s best handheld
X-ray system yet.”
The newly designed battery handset
with infrared connectors, together 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,” said Kaufman.
“Our engineers spent hours working with
customers, 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, particularly with
our products that are easily carried from
operatory to operatory,” said Kaufman.
“The NOMAD Pro 2 will stand up to repetitive antiseptic and cross-contamination
control.”
To learn more, contact your equipment
dealer, an Aribex sales rep or visit the
company’s website at www.aribex.com.
“We’re excited to show our customers our new innovations and enhancements,” said Kaufman. “We invite our
customers to visit our exhibit at booth
No. 2201 for a special demonstration of
our new NOMAD Pro 2.”

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. 1328.

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.

Improving gingival retraction

clay-based gingival retraction

Gingival retraction and tissue
management
Performing gingival retraction and tissue management is a critical step in
crown and bridge procedures. The most
common technique is the use of packing
(retraction) cord; however, several alternate cordless retraction materials and
additional techniques have evolved.
In some cases, combination techniques
are used involving both retraction cord
and cordless materials. Using a retraction cord can be an unpleasant and timeconsuming procedure for you, your
staff and your patients. The use of cordless materials and techniques as part of
crown and bridge procedures is a growing trend being adopted by more dental
professionals.

A new addition

dentistry easier.” Centrix is a key leader
in the cordless gingival retraction arena
with products that are minimally invasive and tissue-friendly, according to the
company. Starting several years ago, with
its launch of the first silicone VPS cordless gingival retraction product, called
GingiTrac™, Centrix captured a piece of
the retraction market. In 2012, Centrix
then launched a kaolin clay-based gingival retraction paste called Access® Edge,
which is sold in a single-use, unit-dose
Centrix syringe delivery tip.
Now, in 2013, Centrix announces the
newest addition to its cordless gingival
retraction family: Access®FLO, a more
flowable kaolin clay-based gingival retraction paste in a single-use, unit-dose
Centrix syringe delivery tip.

gival retraction paste for use prior to
all crown and bridge impression procedures. Minimally invasive and tissue friendly, AccessFLO allows for quick
and easy tissue displacement without
the need for packing cord. Alternately,
AccessFLO can be used in conjunction
with packing cord, acting as a second
cord.
Available in single-use, unit-dose
Centrix syringe tips, AccessFLO can
save time while eliminating crosscontamination, according to the company. The built-in combined dual action of

15 percent aluminum chloride hemostatic agent and kaolin clay help to control
bleeding and seepage of sulcular fluids.
When it comes to cleanup, AccessFLO is
easily rinsed out and removed with water spray and a vacuum after a minimum
of only two minutes.
With AccessFLO, you can also achieve
improved gingival retraction for more
clearly defined margins by incorporating Centrix GingiCaps™, which utilize
patient bite-down pressure to push
AccessFLO into the sulcus.

Kit includes all needed instrumentation
OCO Biomedical, a creator and distributor of dental implant technology for
more than 30 years, introduces the DD
Sinus Lift™ Kit.
The DD Sinus Lift Kit contains all of
the instrumentation needed to perform
a sinus lift procedure using the crestal
approach. The DD Sinus Lift technique is
unique in that it allows for permeation
of the blood supply from the osteotomy
into the sinus cavity for enhanced healing and formation of new bone.
All components are labeled for easy
removal and return to the tray after autoclaving for sterilization. There is also
an extra compartment underneath the
caddy that provides room for additional
instruments, if necessary.

Here in San Francisco
To obtain additional information on the DD Sinus
Lift Kit, call (800) 228-0477 or stop by the OCO Biomedical booth, No. 1338.

The DD Sinus Lift made its debut at a
two-day advanced surgical course held at
the OCO Biomedical training facility in
Albuquerque, N.M.
Course participants were able to observe a crestal approach sinus lift procedure during a live surgery performed by
a local dentist.
They were also able to perform the
procedure on models that were specially
designed for the crestal approach sinus
augmentation.

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. 1726, to
