Composite Matrix The world’s Fastest Matrix?[2] =>untitled opinion 02 IDEM Singapore 2010—16 April Shortened clinical protocols—choosing the optimal treatment strategy By Dr Roland Glauser, Switzerland It’s an incontrovertible fact that no other treatment modality has changed dentistry over the past four decades as much as the discovery of osseointegration and the introduction of dental implants. In the early years, the application of osseointegrating implants was strictly focused on completely edentulous patients. Proven predictability and growing acceptance among the clinicians resulted in an obvious expansion of its use for all other indications. Original protocols for placing and restoring dental implants included a strictly staged approach as the standard modus operandi. Over the years, a myriad of implant designs and protocol developments has been introduced to the field aiming at simplification and concision without jeopardising favourable treatment outcomes. In particular, main focus is on a reduction of the number of interventions, such as the invasiveness of the surgery, duration of the treatment, and improved tissue stability and aesthetics. Hence, the future is moving towards clear differentiation strategies of “when” and “how” to favour modified clinical protocols, and when to follow more traditional staged treatment sequences. Clinicians placing and restoring dental implants need to implement these strategies on a routine basis in order to provide an up-to-date therapy for their patients. Consequently, implant dentistry is slowly moving to the next level which is shortened clinical protocols. Dr Roland Clauser’s workshop on “How to Incorporate Implants in your Daily Practice” will be held today in Room 301 on Level 3. The session starts at 17:00. “Bisphosphonates may increase the failure rate of implants” Interview with Dr Sebastian G. Ciancio, USA, on periodontal disease as a risk factor for implant failure The treatment of periodontitis and peri-implantitis involves the eradication of periodontal pathogens. Microbiologic studies have shown that a complex microflora, including periodontal pathogens, become established subgingivally around implants within one week after abutment connections, and this microflora continues to persist subgingivally for long time periods. today international spoke with Dr Sebastian G. Ciancio, USA, about this process and what dentists can do to lower the risks for peri-implant mucositis. today international: Dr Ciancio, implant failure is, in most cases, connected to the loss of hard tissue (bone) surrounding the implant. Why should clinicians look into soft tissue as well? Dr Sebastian G. Ciancio: The number of reasons why implants fail are plenty. According to the latest research, risk factures such as bone quality, poor plaque biofilm control, smoking, systematic conditions, surgical trauma, medication, overload or periodontitis history come into play. Even genetics have been considered to be responsible for implant failure in some cases. In view of this, when periimplantitis occurs all of the above must be considered. However, excess plaque biofilm can cause peri-implant mucositis which, if left untreated has the potential to spread apically and infect the underlying bone, leading to peri-implantitis. Since implants have no periodontal ligament around them, the antibacterial defense mechanisms in the periodontal ligament are not present so the possibility of apical spread of the infection from the soft tissue is enhanced. How do pathogens associated with periodontitis contribute to implant failure? The same pathogens associated with periodontitis are also associated with periimplantitis. These include P. gingivalis, A. actinomycetemcomitans, T. Forsynthesis and to a lesser extent P. Intermedius and T. denticola. Furthermore, the same mechanisms related to the initiation and progression of periodontitis are associated with the initiation and progression of periodontitis. Do modern implant surfaces affect the microbiology associated with periimplant mucositis? The type of surface does not seem to affect the microbiology around implants since pellicle from saliva attaches to all types of surfaces and then the bacterial biofilm develops on the surface of this pellicle. What treatment concepts for peri-implant mucositis are available at the moment and what’s their success rate? The main concepts to treat gingivitis are applicable to the treatment of peri-implant mucositis-plaque biofilm control with mechanical aids and chemotherapeutic agents, and periodic removal of deposits around implants. It is known that certain medications may contribute to peri-implant mucositis. Which groups have been identified so far and are there alternatives? Calcium channel blockers can cause gingival enlargement around implants with resulting pseudopocket formation and alternative medications are available to control blood pressure and cardiac function. Bisphosphonates may increase the failure rate of implants particularly when administered IV to patients. There may also be a risk of increased failure in patients taking oral bisphosphonates. Alternatives to the bisphosphonates are not as good but include increased intake of calcium and Vitamin D. Patients taking medications causing xerostomia may be at risk for increased implant failure since these patients accumulate more plaque than patients with a normal salivary flow and in many cases, the pathogens are more virulent. Patients taking sedatives and/or tranquilizers need frequent reminders about plaque biofilm control since these medications create an “I don’t care attitude” in many patients. Therefore they should be scheduled for more frequent recalls. Finally, patients with asthma who use steroid inhalers are at increased risk for oral candidiasis which can present with clinical signs similar to peri-implant mucositis. Thank you for this interview. Dr Sebastian G. Ciancio’s lecture on “Implants: A Periodontal Perspective” will be held today in the Theatre on Level 3. The session starts at 8:30.

Ciancio, USA, Theatre, Level 3 Periodontal disease is a significant risk factor for implant failure. It is clear that the pathogens associated with peri-implant mucositis are similar to those associated with periodontitis. The treatment of periodontitis/peri-implantitis involves the reduction/eradication of periodontal pathogens. Following effective therapy, beneficial and pathogenic species recolonize the subgingival area. Microbiologic studies have shown that a complex microflora, including periodontal pathogens, become established subgingivally around implants within one week after abutment connections, and this microflora continues to persist subgingivally for long time periods. In addition, it has been shown that healthy implants presented with low plaque scores and less periodontal bleeding on probing. In contrast, peri-implantitis is associated with elevated plaque scores and increased bleeding on probing. Current concepts in treatment of peri-implant mucositis will be reviewed as well as various medications which may contribute to this condition. 9:00–12:00 Hands-on Workshop: Human Cadaver Dr Pascal Valentini, France, KTP Advanced Surgery Training Centre, NUS 03 Diode lasers in focus of DT Study Club Symposia The Dental Tribune Study Club (DTSC) will start its first Symposia today with a lecture on affordable soft tissue diode lasers by world renowned speakers Dr George Freedman and Dr Fay Goldstep. The lecture will be held in the exhibition hall at booth J30 and will be free of charge for visitors of the IDEM trade exhibition. Participants will be able to earn one ADA CERP continuing education credit for every DTSC lecture they attend until Sunday. According to Freedman and Fay, soft tissue diode lasers have become a “must have” mainstream technology for every general practice as the science, ease of use and affordability make it simple to incorporate. While restorative dentistry becomes more predictable and less stressful, laser therapy also expands the clini- cal scope of practice to include new soft tissue procedures that keep patients in the office. Treatment with the 810 nm diode laser (e.g. Picasso Diode Laser, AMD Lasers, USA), for example, has shown to have a significant long-term bactericidal effect in periodontal pockets. A. actinomycetemcomitans, an invasive pathogen associated with the development of periodontal disease and generally quite difficult to eliminate, responds well to laser treatment. Scaling and root planing outcomes in endodontics are also enhanced when diode laser therapy is added to the dental armamentarium. The patient is typically more comfortable during and after treatment and gingival healing is faster and more stable, research shows. Besides Freedman and Fray, today’s Symposia will feature lectures on practice management (Peter Barry) and restorative dentistry (Dr Shriju Joshi). The speakers will broadcast live online from various locations across the globe or present right on the exhibition floor to IDEM visitors.

The new line of products comprises the products Tetric N-Ceram, Tetric N-Flow, Tetric N-Bond and Tetric N-Bond SelfEtch. At IDEM 2010 in Singapore, Sopro-Acteon presents SoproLIFE, a new revolutionary fluorescence imaging system for the diagnosis and treatment aid of caries. By making use of the auto fluorescence of dentine, SoproLIFE will allow dentists to detect occlusal or interproximal decay, often missed by X-rays, even in its earliest stages as well as to differentiate healthy from infected tissue in order to excavate only the tissue which is diseased. According to the company, SoproLIFE is used “live” as it is free from ultraviolet or ionising radiation. uses nanotechnology and is acetone-free which is supposed to help postoperative sensitivities occur less frequently. It also enables a durable bond to be established between the restorative material and the dental hard tissues. Tetric N-Bond is suitable both for direct and indirect SoproLIFE comes with three different operating modes. In Diagnostic mode, the device makes it possible to detect damage at various clinical stages, without loss of consistency and an image magnification of 30 to 100 times. In Treatment mode, SoproLIFE enables actual spatial mapping of unbroken tissue areas which are suspect by showing a differentiation of pre-operative healthy tissue versus diseased tissue. The Daylight mode allows dentists to get acquainted with images in blue light by Because it can be adapted to the most complex of clinical situations, SoproLIFE will enable the practitioner to quickly adjust his treatment options, the company said. Connected to Sopro’s Imaging software, a dedicated module will allow users to have a personalised and customised follow-up of the patients. It can also be connected to any colour monitor or to any other imagery software.

There are also instruments with thicker working tips for stronger roots (canine, premolar or molar). and the vestibular and oral approximal surfaces of the tooth being extracted in the interdental space. For optimal effectiveness the working ends have a very pointed shape while the slightly curved elevators are of increasing diameter. According to the company, the two lancet-shaped instruments can be introduced smoothly into the space between the bony socket walls KOHLER MEDIZINTECHNIK, GERMANY Booth A16/B15 INSTRUMENTS FOR MINIMALLY INVASIVE LUXATION According to the company, the universal composite Tetric N-Ceram is based on the popular Tetric Ceram and designed for the fabrication of highquality standard restorations in the anterior and posterior region. Important properties like polishability, low shrinkage and wear could be enhanced with the help of nanotechnology. Tetric N-Ceram is complemented by the flowable composite Tetric N-Flow which also offers excellent handling properties as well as an exceptionally high level of radiopacity. Owing the material’s outstanding wetting ability, it is particularly suitable for use as a cavity liner and offers the stability required for Class V restorations. restorative procedures after prior light polymerization, the company said. Tetric N-Bond Self-Etch is a single component, self-etching, light-curing adhesive for direct restorative treatment procedures (composites, compomers). A single layer of the acetone-free Tetric N-Bond Self-Etch material is sufficient to establish a sound bond between the composite and the enamel or dentin reducing the time required for direct restorative treatment. According to Ivoclar, it is possible to store Tetric N-Bond Self-Etch at room temperature without compromising its quality because of the monomers which are resistant to hydrolysis. Tetric N-Bond is a light-curing single-component bonding agent for enamel and dentin bonding in conjunction with the total-etch technique.

Nowaydays, dentists are able to extract teeth and place an implant immediately, considering that the indications for this procedure are observed. In such cases, the extraction must be performed as atraumatically as possible. MINVALUX instruments with a colour-coded ergonomic TRINOVO instrument handle and a single working end from Kohler have especially been designed for minimally invasive extraction surgery. www.kohler-medizintechnik.de Booth F26 STATIM AUTOCLAVES The removal of air from the sterilisation chamber in current generation autoclaves is regarded as a prerequisite for sterilisation because air impairs the action of sterilisation steam. According to the requirements of the Robert Koch Institute in Germany, there is more than one way to remove air. The STATIM cassette autoclave from SciCan uses multiple pressure changes in the supra-atmospheric pressure range, in order to build up the necessary pressure for sterilisation. The STATIM 2000S Cassette Autoclave is an biological and mechanical effective an S cycle sterilizer. It can sterilise dental handpieces in between patients in only eight minutes which saves time and prolongs the life of dental instruments, according to the company. The STATIM 5000S Cassette Autoclave has a greater capacity than the 2000S due treatment areas making it an ideal complement for the larger practices or clinics.

As the photosensitizer has an extremely high affinity to bacterial membranes, the bacteria are instantly destroyed when the reactive oxygen specimens are formed. The technique is especially useful in the oral cavity as it disrupts the biofilm in which the bacteria are embedded. With FotoSan, CMS Dental from Denmark, introduces a LAD system that is able to treat including two autoclavable covers for the light head, blunt tips for surface treatment and long tips for more profound treatment and endodontics, will be available to IDEM visitors. The photosensitizer comes in three different viscosities facilitating the practical applications. According to the company, the treatment with FotoSan lasts only 10 to 30 seconds and has no side effects. a wide range of indications including endodontics, periodontics, periimplantitis, gingivitis, pericoronitis and caries.

According to the company, ALL-BOND SE effectively etches both the enamel and dentin to prevent marginal bond failures and properly seals the surface against microbial invasion. Additionally, the system reduces or eliminates the incidence of post-operative sensitivity, they added. ALL-BOND SE comes in a proprietary cartridge that fits into the ACE dispenser that accurately dispenses the correct proportion of material. The dispenser is activated with just one click. After the mixing, the adhesive can be applied with the provided bristle brush. The best of two worlds. ® Identium. BISCO, USA www.bisco.com.

KETTENBACH, GERMANY www.kettenbach.com Booth C22–C24/D23 ACTEON SHOWCASES IMPLANTCENTER2 UNIT Satelec, a founder of piezoelectric ultrasonic generators for dental use, has announced the introduction of its second generation devices in pre-implant surgery. The Implantcenter2 will take full advantage of the technological achievements of its predecessor, such as the Cruise Control System, the reliability, robustness, and high power. In addition, it now features LED technology. According to the company, all surgical applications from implantology to periodontal therapy can be done with this single unit. Its convex shape and large 5.7˝ touch-sensitive screen will make it the ideal device for bone surgery, they added. It offers a Piezotome mode for pre-implant surgery and a Newtron mode for all conventional treatments. The Piezotome mode facilitates and improves the safety of delicate pre-implant surgical procedures such as fine osteotomy, osteoplasty, sinus elevation, ridge expansion or syndesmotomy. Thanks to the ultrasonic frequencies (28–36 kHz), ImplantCenter2 is active on hard tissues while limiting the risk of soft tissue lesions. The modulated piezo signal is supposed to allow tissue relaxation and faster cell repair for a clean cut and better healing. The Newtron mode, on the other hand, is taking use of a wide range of tips on the market. More than 70 tips are available for periodontology, endodontics, prevention and prosthodontics. Each tip can be identified by a coloured ring which simplifies selection of the power setting recommended for each procedure. The micro-motor system I-Surge is especially convincing due to its unsurpassed constant torque and steady high-performance, even in lower revolution ranges. With a range of 100 to 40,000 rpm, it is said to offer the widest revolution range in its class. And with 6 Ncm, it delivers unrivalled torque in micro-motors, the company said. The new technology in the handpieces triples the ultrasonic power in bone surgery. The addition of LED allow for an optimal vision of the operative field. The Piezotome2 and Newtron LED handpieces feature a long-life light ring including six ultra-powerful LEDs (100,000 Lux). The LED handpieces are autoclavable at 134°C.

It was a bustling trading place for many nationalities that included Arabs, Chinese, Europeans, Indians and Malays. Of all the historical accounts, the Malay Annals paint the most captivating picture of how Singapore came to have its present name. Legend has it that Sang Nila Utama, the then ruler of Palembang (the capital city of the ancient kingdom of Srivijaya) made an unexpected landing on the island. While seeking shelter from the storm, he sighted an animal on the island that appeared to be a lion. He declared the island’s new name to be “Singapura”, which means “lion city” in Malay. It replaced Temasek as the common name for the island by the end of the 14th century. AD Centuries later, another important arrival took place on the island. Having read the Annals and with the intention, in his own words, to “return the ancient glory,” Sir Stamford Raffles of the British East India Company landed by the Singapore River and set out to establish a trading post. That year was 1819, and as the saying goes, “the rest is history.” One of the world’s major oil refining and distribution centres, the city is a major supplier of electronic components and a leader in shipbuilding and repairing. It has also become one of the most important financial centres of Asia, with more than 130 banks doing business around the world from within the 640 sqkm small island. In just 150 years, Singapore has now grown into a thriving centre of commerce and industry. Its former role as an entrepot, however, has diminished, as the nation has increased its manufacturing base. Today, Singapore has one of the busiest ports in the world with more than 600 shipping lines sending super tankers, container ships and passenger liners to share the busy waters with coastal fishing vessels and wooden lighters. At first glance, Singapore might appear shockingly modern and anonymous, but it is indeed an undeniably Asian city with Chinese, Malay and Indian traditions from feng shui to ancestor worship creating part of the everyday landscape. It is these contrasts that bring the city to life. Singapore has traded in its rough-and-ready opium dens and pearl luggers for towers of concrete and glass, and its steamy rickshaw image for hi-tech wizardry, but you can still recapture the colonial era with a Singapore Sling under the languorous ceiling fans at Raffles Hotel. One day you are in a hawker stall (food centre) melting over a bowl of Indian curry, the next you are enjoying high tea in whispered environs complete with air-conditioned, starched linen table cloths and gliding waiters. thing in cuisine is fuelled by an adventurous national palate. Because it is often viewed by its population as central to Singapore’s national identity and a unifying cultural thread, Singaporean literature often declares eating as a national pastime and food, a national obsession.
