“A common language for all stakeholders
to communicate about caries”
An interview with caries expert and speaker Dr Nigel Pitts, UK
today international: Caries is
increasingly considered a serious
public-health issue. Has the perception of the disease changed
during the last few years and if
so, what are the indications of
this development?
Dr Nigel Pitts: Yes, the perception has changed, but in what way,
very much depends on which country one is considering. There is a
growing awareness in many “developed” countries, where caries has
been declining dramatically for decades, but there are still vulnerable
groups, particularly young children,
with a very high burden of preventable disease.

Dr Nigel Pitts
n At this year’s opening session,
Dr Nigel Pitts from the UK will focus
on dental caries as a public-health
issue, as well as the epidemiology
and importance of understanding
the science behind primary and
secondary caries prevention. today
international spoke with him about
evidence-based approaches to planning care that can be utilised in dental practice.
In other countries, caries in
young children is thought to be increasing. In yet other traditionally
low-caries “developing” countries,
there are real concerns that changes
in diet and lifestyle may be accompanied by an increasing caries problem
for society and for individuals.
You are one of the developers of a caries classification and
management system endorsed
by dental organisations like the
FDI World Dental Federation.
What is the concept behind it and
what is its potential for decreasing the burden of tooth decay in
the world today?
ICDAS (International Caries Detection and Assessment System) is a simple, logical, evidence-based, detection
and assessment system that classifies
the stages of the caries process. It is
designed for use in dental education,
clinical practice, research and public health. It provides a common language for all stakeholders to communicate about caries, and facilitates valid, consistent comparisons of lesions
at single and multiple time points.

ICDAS has evolved to comprise a
number of approved, compatible formats for different needs and applications, including simplified forms
for those wanting to work with fewer
stages of caries. The potential for decreasing the burden of caries ranges
from helping the transition to a more
preventive approach to caries, helping in assessing health needs more
realistically for populations and individuals, helping evaluate preventive programmes and helping to deliver more preventive caries control
and better future products through
research.
dency towards any of these approaches so far?
As you indicated, this exciting
study will not be completed for some
years. The feasibility stage is finished and the much-needed back-toback comparison is getting underway—it is too soon to see results yet.
The mounting evidence we do have
(from multi-year randomised controlled trials in general practice) is
that the approach of biological, preventive management with reduced
surgical intervention (such as with
the Hall technique) is showing re-
science & practice
sults that are better than those
achieved by the more conventional
methods.
What approaches to primary
and secondary caries prevention
are the most promising and what
evidence do we have with regard
to their clinical effectiveness?
The strongest evidence on caries
prevention comes from high-quality systematic reviews of fluoride,
whether in water, salt, toothpaste,
varnish or other forms. In addition,
there is strong evidence of the effi-
cacy of sealants. There are also some
promising new developments with
remineralisation, but it will inevitably take time to accrue further evidence of clinical effectiveness.
There is evidence that a purely
restorative approach is not efficient but preventive caries control
has been adopted rather slowly in
many countries. Do you see a move
from an operative towards a more
preventive approach?
I do see this move from a purely
operative towards a more preven-
07
tive-based approach gathering pace.
It has been a very slow change in
some countries, despite the profession talking about it for decades.
However, there are a number of
countries that have been controlling
caries in this way for years and an
increasing number of countries that
are in transition. Reform of payment
systems and changes in patient
expectations are important components of this change.
Thank you very much for this
interview.
AD
Apart from classification, what
other advantages does such a system offer?
ICDAS leads to better quality information, derived from the assessment of caries severity and activity,
to support decisions about diagnosis, prognosis and clinical management at both the individual and public-health levels. As we know more
about the complexities of the caries
process, informing sound clinical
decisions is increasingly important
for providing appropriate and highquality caries care.
How can these concepts be applied to dental practice?
ICDAS has created the International Caries Classification and
Management System (ICCMS), an
open system developed specifically
to meet the needs of those seeking
a preventively orientated framework to support and enable comprehensive clinical caries management
in the dental practice situation. This
framework will help the dental
team secure improved long-term outcomes for their patients.
There are improved means of
detecting and assessing risks for
early carious lesions. Has technology changed how we look at
them?
The clinical visual detection and
assessment of early lesions (using
ICDAS-style approaches) is the foundation for planning care, but there is
a continuing need for detection aids
to help identify lesions that are difficult to detect visually and for effective risk assessment tools.
Examples of some of the newer approaches on the market for detection
are enhanced electrical, optical and
radiographic detection aids. These
should be considered prudently as
aids to preventive caries care, not just
finding more cavities to fill.
There are also developments in
risk assessment systems, such as
CAMBRA, to accompany older established systems, such as cariogram.
All of the information derived from
these useful detection and risk assessment tools needs to be integrated into a holistic and personalised preventive treatment plan for
each patient.
Concerning the management
of early carious lesions, you promoted a study in 2010 on the best
way to manage decay in children’s teeth called FICTION (Filling Children’s Teeth, Indicated
or Not?). The study to be finished
in 2018 is examining the different
approaches (conventional restoration, preventive method and
the Hall technique) to children of
ages three to seven. Is there a ten-

IDEM Singapore 2012—20 April
The passive income practice
Dr Phillip Palmer explains new methods for exit planning and retirement funding of dentists
n Exit planning has traditionally
been a fairly simple task for dentists. The choices a dentist faced
were either winding down the
number of days worked, thereby
gradually easing into retirement,
or working until three to six
months before wanting to stop, and
then advertising the practice for
sale. After negotiations with the
buyer, dentists would sell and
walk away—much like a house sale.
Sometimes there would be a good
handover of patients and staff, and
sometimes this process would be
less than ideal.
More recently, other options for
exit planning have become available for practice owners. Over the
last three to four years, for example, many dentists in Australia
having sold their practices stayed
on to work as employee dentists for
the new owner. This model in particular has increased in popularity recently with corporate entities
often being the buyer. Another
model is deferred sale/employee
with view, whereby a new dentist
(Dr Junior) works for a year as
an employee for Dr Senior. If all
goes well, a contract is signed for
the purchase of half (or even all)
the practice in some years hence.
The employed dentist continues
to work as an associate, and the
transaction is settled after the
agreed time. This technique assures Dr Senior both a buyer and
extra income from Dr Junior during the years as an employee.
Through the incremental percent-
Basically, they would need to have
a deep knowledge and understanding of the systems needed to run
a practice.
Some degree (the more, the better) of management, leadership and
business skills is also required by
the owner, including the ability to
look at and analyse the right numbers or to motivate key staff members to manage the practice and
outperform through the judicious
use of incentives, including welldesigned bonus systems. As the
owner dentist is no longer present
full-time in the passive income
practice, there also needs to be
regular training in communication
and the provision of service, i.e.
clinical training.
There definitely needs to be
more than one clinician. Rarely is
there sufficient profit over and
above the employee dentist’s wage
(40 per cent after lab) to warrant
running the practice as a business
with such a small staff.
age technique, after a similar trial period, the practice contracts
are exchanged and incrementally
each year a further percentage of
the practice changes hands from
Dr Senior to Dr Junior.
If that entire sum were used to
purchase a residential investment
property, one would be lucky to net
more than AUS$30,000 per year,
and probably less, to fund retirement.
In each case, after the practice is
sold, the ex-owner commonly takes
the money he made from the sale,
goes on a holiday and then invests
whatever is left in real estate or
the stock market to fund his retirement. For a practice here in Australia grossing say AUS$800,000
per year, if sold on the open market could bring up to AUS$500,000.
Another way to exit plan and
fund a dentist’s retirement is to
establish the passive income practice, also known as the “never sell
concept”. Using this method, the
practice is set up in such a way as
to be self-managed, with little effort (1 day/month) needed from the
owner when the practice is mature.
The profit from the practice can be
as high as 30 per cent after payment of all normal expenses and
clinicians’ wages.
If maintained as a going concern and run properly, there is no
reason to expect a return from
the AUS$800,000 grossing practice of less than AUS$200,000 p.a.
(and still maintain an asset worth
at least AUS$500,000).
Obviously, for this option to
work, the practice and the staff
need to be trained to be self-managed and to provide a certain level of service and communication.
There are plenty of horror stories out there, especially after the
global financial crisis, of retired
dentists needing to return to practice because the practice sale did
not fund their retirement the way
they expected it to. The never sell
concept represents a new way of
looking at the asset that is your
practice and how it can bring you
returns long after your clinical
career comes to an end.

USA, and supporting practising
clinical dentist evaluators located
throughout the world. The dentists
involved are from all areas of the
world, representing all aspects of
the profession.
Hein, who joined CR over
22 years ago in order to manage the long-term clinical trials
of restorative materials, currently oversees the publication

He has also presented 240 dental
continuing education seminars
for CR over the past 14 years in
the USA and nine other countries.
Many dentists report that honesty is a respected and unique
aspect of the organisation, as there
are no financial motives in CR.

IDEM Singapore 2012—20 April
“Digital technology is becoming essential”
An interview with Dr Dobrina Mollova, Managing Director of CAPP
gapore. What is behind the decision to have another conference
there?
Dr Dobrina Mollova: Our first
Dubai conference held in 2006
was an unexpected success and
so we were able to develop the concept further. Over the years, some
of our sponsors approached us
with the idea of holding a similar
event in Asia Pacific. Following
the interest, we decided to launch
preparations 18 months ago for a
conference to be held in Singapore.

Dr Dobrina Mollova
n In October, Singapore’s recently
opened Marina Bay Beach Resort
will become a showcase for everything related to digital dentistry
when the first CAD/CAM & Computerized Dentistry International
Conference opens its doors to dental professionals from all over the
Asia Pacific region. Organised by
the Centre for Advanced Professional Practices (CAPP) in Dubai,
the congress is based on the successful concept of the CAD/CAM
& digital dentistry events held in
the Middle East. today international
spoke with Dr Dobrina Mollova,
Managing Director of CAPP, about
the state of preparations and the
prospects of the field in Asia.
Dr Mollova, you recently
announced that the first Asia
Pacific CAD/CAM & Computerized Dentistry International
Conference will be held in Sin-
Since then, we have received
significant support not only from
the industry but also from government organisations such as the Singapore Tourism Board, who fully
supports our event, and the Singapore Dental Association (SDA),
who functions as the co-organiser.
That is why we are confident that
we will be able to transfer this
concept to the Asia Pacific region
successfully.
Preparations for the Singapore conference already started in late 2010. Are you on
schedule?
Preparations are going very
well and we will be pushing our
marketing campaign after IDEM.
Until now, we have been quiet so as
not to disturb the marketing efforts
of our Singapore partners. Surprisingly, there are already many dentists from the Middle East who are
coming to IDEM and who are also
interested in participating in our
Singapore conference.
AD
QUAL ITY
IS OUR TRADITION

Computerized Dentistry International Conference. (DTI/Photo Archipoch)
What are the main challenges
of bringing the concept to Singapore?
The growth of CAD/CAM dentistry alongside new technology,
materials and equipment has seen
a rapid integration into both dental
offices and laboratories. Without a
doubt, digital technology is becoming essential for every dental practice and laboratory. The question
is: are we prepared to keep up to
date with this growing industry,
and are we able to implement this
pool of information in our practices
without the proper expertise? This
will be the main challenge for us.
Are you planning to extend
the concept to other countries
in Asia?
Our target is the entire Asia Pacific region, which is much larger
than the market in the Middle East.
Similar to Dubai, Singapore has become a commercial hub for the entire region and, for this reason, we
are inviting professionals from all
over Asia Pacific to come and learn
about the promising technologies
in the dental industry. According
to our sponsors, there could be
potential for holding a similar conference in China but we have not
yet decided to go there, as we want
to wait for the outcome of the conference in Singapore.
This is an interesting question,
as I have just been through the
recordings of our first conferences.
There is clearly a huge difference in view of presentations, the
knowledge we have gained and
the technology that is available.
Back in 2006, we started with only
160 participants, who were mainly dentists. Meanwhile, this number has quadrupled and includes
dentists, dental technicians and
dental assistants—basically, the
entire dental team. An increasing
number of participants are specialists, who have gradually become
interested in the aspects of computerised dentistry, but at first there
were only prosthodontists.

How large is the dental CAD/
CAM market in Singapore in
terms of size and penetration?
To date, we do not have meaningful statistics for Singapore. According to MarketResearch.com, however, the Japanese market for dental prosthetics and CAD/CAM devices was the largest in the Asia
Pacific region in 2010, followed by
the Republic of Korea. In the same
year, the total Chinese and Indian
markets for dental CAD/CAM grew
by 7.5 per cent. The global market
for CAD/CAM is experiencing double-digit growth at the moment.
Looking at Dubai, are you
able to say something about the
impact your conference had on
the field of dentistry and how
digital technology is perceived?
The main goal of this conference
will be to bring a group of high-end
dental professionals together to enable them to discuss and learn about
these new technologies in detail.
Therefore, we do not plan to offer
any hands-on training at the moment unless there is a request by the
industry. This does not rule out such
training in the future. At the fifth
CAD/CAM & Computerized Dentistry Conference in Dubai in 2011, for
example, we had seven workshops,
which were well received.
How many attendees do you
hope for?
We are aiming at 400 attendees
for the first conference, which in
Over 600 dental professionals participated in the last CAD/CAM & Computerised Dentistry
Conference in Dubai. (DTI/Photo courtesy by CAPP, Dubai)
Will the Singapore conference reflect this diversity?
The congress will not be limited
to dental CAD/CAM technology.
Unlike our conference in Dubai, this
time we want to put more emphasis
on 3-D imaging systems, a technology that has shown the potential to
transform diagnostics in dentistry
completely. Besides treatment planning and diagnostics, the list of topics will range from the selection of
materials for different indications
to the use of digital technology in
more traditional clinical areas like
orthodontics.
Will you also offer seminars
or hands-on workshops during
the Singapore conference?
my experience is a realistic target,
given the size of the market and our
presence in Asia Pacific through
our partners. We are already cooperating with several dental associations, while seeking new professional partners from the dental
community who are eager to work
with us. Owing to the enthusiasm
of the SDA, we believe that we
can make this event successful.
Those who are interested will
be able to find our flyers at the
SDA booth at IDEM Singapore on
20 to 22 April 2012. They can also
visit us at www.capp-asia.com or
www.facebook.com/cappasiapacific.
Dr Mollova, thank you very
much for this interview.

For more than four decades,
Abrasive Technology (Lewis Center, OH, USA) has been recognized
as one of the world’s leading manufacturers of superabrasive grinding wheels and tools but perhaps
nothing defines the company’s
commitment to precision more
than its dental products—most notably its Two Striper diamond dental instruments. In
fact, the company says to have
taken extra
steps to
ensure that
these products are not only safer, but
better balanced and easier to use.
AT’s founders developed a
unique diamond bonding process
called P.B.S. that makes it possible
to manufacture grinding tools that
are superior to other products on
the market, the company said. The
process is said to increase productivity and part consistency simply
because it will last longer, cut faster,
run cooler and load less.
According to the company, the
process is still one of the most effective and innovative bonding processes in the industry. It’s a science
that the Company said to have
helped to transform itself—and a
craft that it’s working every day to
perfect.
Through continuous innovation, product development and
enhancement,
AT aims to
meet the most
demanding
specifications
and solve the
most challenging applications. From disks and
trimming wheels to instruments
and files, its dental products epitomize high quality, attention to
detail and superior craftsmanship
and makes them a number one
choice in the industry.

IDEM Singapore 2012—20 April
DÜRR DENTAL PRESENTS NEW COMPRESSOR GENERATION
At IDEM Singapore, the German dental company Dürr is presenting the new generation of its
successful compressor series to
dental professionals in Singapore
and from the Asia-Pacific region.
First introduced at IDS Cologne
in 2011, both the Tornado 1 and 2
are said to be robust, ultrasilent
and economical while offering the
same advantages from the first
generation like a compact design
and compressed air of the highest
quality.
According to Dürr, the new model uses 15 per cent less energy
than its predecessor. It’s improved
design, recently awarded a winner
of the red dot design award 2011,
and lower noise level makes it
more adaptable to dental offices.
An anti-bacterial
coating based on
nanotechnology on
the inside of the
tank is supposed to
ensure the highest
level of hygiene. Both
versions benefit from
an optional membrane-drying unit that
provides constant dry
air and practically
zero regeneration
time which make
the compressors especially suited for for
heavy-duty conditions.
Since the compression performance is
more effectively exploited through the
membrane-drying
unit, the equipment can be operated 24 hours a day, the company
said. Tornado compressors can be
used for up to three operatories.
The output voltage can be adapted
according to the requirements of
each country.

AQIUM 3D
Owing to its outstanding
scannability, Müller Omicron’s
Aqium 3D impression material
does not only offer the possibility to make conventional impres-
sions but also to generate digital
data for computer-assisted production of prosthetic restorations without having to add powder or spray.
According to the German dental company, the overall system
as well as the individual components of the Aqium 3D have been
perfectly matched in regard to
the hydrophilic, ultimate tensile
strength/elongation of break,
flow characteristics, thixotropy,
as well as colour contrast.
Owing to this combination,
the material offers one of the
best performances in the mar-
ket, a result recently confirmed
by a benchmark test conducted
by an independent laboratory in
Germany involving other popular impression materials.
Besides premiering Aqium
3D Light in Asian markets, Müller
Omicron has announced to showcase several other new products
in Singapore.
Visitors will be able to get
more information during live
demonstrations at their booth

AIR-N-GO POLISHERS AND POWDERS
With AIR-N-GO, the French Acteon
Group aims to increase the possibilities of dental clinicians for care
and treatment with one single handpiece. The dual purpose air polisher with direct connection to the
chair was designed for ultra-active
supra-gingival polishing as well as
sub-gingival periodontal diseases
and peri-implantitis treatment. According to the manufacturer, it in-
stantly converts into a perio
system through an optional
AIR-N-GO PERIO Kit comprising an ultra-fine PERIO nozzle,
green PERIO powder tank and
glycine-based PERIO powder.
Available as seven different
powders, the AIR-N-GO powder
product range is said to provide
gentle care, effective prophylaxis
and subgingival treatments. The
unique grain structure of each
powder allows for efficient as well
as painless polishing and cleaning
with no damage to teeth or implants, the company said.
The AIR-N-GO “CLASSIC”, active and sodium bicarbonate
based powder, with less aggressive geometry, comes in
five 100 % natural flavours. Based
on natural calcium carbonate, the
AIR-N-GO “PEARL” ultra-active powder consists of microspheres that
are gentle to sensitive tissues. The
two ranges are recommended for
supra-gingival prophylaxis.

Endodontists who want to

its Scout-RaCe rotary NiTi instrument system featuring a .02
taper follows the canal autonomy perfectly.
The Scout-RaCe 10.02 can be
used directly after a manual instrument ISO 08 up to working
length, followed by Scout-RaCe
15.02 and Scout-RaCe 20.02.
Besides having an exclusive
rounded safety tip, the instruments offer a special anti-screwing design and sharp edges for
more cutting efficiency, the company said.
An electro-chemical polishing provides more resistance to
torsion while the permanent
and sterilisable SafetyMemoDisc helps clinicians to control
the number of uses and prevents
ruptures owing to metal fatigue.
Scout-RaCe files are available
in an assortment pack with
2 pieces of each size or in a box
with five individual sizes.
Based in La Chaux-de-Fonds
in the heart of Switzerland’s

ments for us in endodontic practice and dental labs since 1931.

Over the last few years, an increasing number of people from
Asian neighbours and around the
globe have become keen on getting
their Singapore experience themselves. New statistics by the Singapore Tourism Board at the Tourism
Industry Conference in March have
revealed that the country attracted
more than 13 million visitors last
year. Expenditures by tourists also
jumped to S$22.2 million (US$23
million), a 17 per cent increase from
2010.
Built between the Singapore Zoo
and the Night Safari exhibit, River
Safari will be the first river-themed
zoo in Asia and let visitors experience
10 different ecosystems from around
the world including the Amazon,
Yangtze, Nile or Mississippi rivers.
Growth was also fuelled by the
opening of new air routes from coun-

currently has to offer. From the
smelly streets of little India to the
glistering sight of the downtown
skyline, it is not presumptuous to
say that it is the city state that incorporates the essence of contemporary Asian lifestyle best.
According to the Board’s predictions, revenues generated by tourism are expected to rise again this
year owing to the opening of new
attractions like the River Safari or
Marina Water Park which both are
scheduled to be open to the public
later this year. When completed,
the world’s largest oceanarium currently built on Sentosa Island, a popular Singapore getaway since the
early 1970s, will become home for
more than 700,000 different species
of fish including dolphins, sharks
and rays. Efforts to present a whale
shark, one of the world’s largest
species of fish, however were recently abandoned.
The resort also claims to be the
world’s largest standalone casino
complex which, according to industry estimates, is about to rival popular international casino destinations
like Las Vegas or nearby Macau.
Last year, gaming experts said the
complex produced revenues of more
than US$6 billion.

New restaurants have recently
expanded the city’s already rich and
diverse culinary scene. The Buyan
russian restaurant at Duxton Hill,
for example, does not only have 52
different types of wodka on sale but
is also said to have the most expensive wine collection throughout the
city state.

life on board, its sinking and the
discovery of the wreck in 1985. In
conclusion, visitors are informed
about the impact and influence of
the Titanic’s sinking on Singapore
in the special Singapore 1912
gallery.
At the Sinema, visitors are invited to experience a cosy cinematic experience with 136 loungestyle leather seats and a state-of-theart projection and sound system. Today, the independent cinema is
screening Eric Khoo’s local comedy
film classic “12 Storeys”. Khoo is one
of Singapore’s most prominent filmmakers and “12 Storeys” was the
first Singaporean motion picture to
be shown at the Cannes Film Festival in 1997. The film will be introduced by an interview with the director and three contemporary
short films by upcoming local filmmakers selected by Khoo himself,
who also began his career by shooting short films in the 1980s.
Music
The film follows the lives of a
number of people living in the
same building. From a middle-aged
man who has trouble dealing with
his money-obsessed wife to children who are neglected by their
parents, the film narrates their different life stories.
Over the last ten years, the band
has toured Asia and Europe. Constantly reinventing itself, the band
is very influential on the Singaporean music scene.
