The next edition is scheduled to open its doors soon with the usual Dealers’ Day on Tuesday, 12 March 2013. More than 120,000 dental professionals from Germany and abroad are expected to attend the event to update their knowledge on the latest developments and trends in dental equipment and materials, according to Hamma. 7 AD 5 The last IDS, held in March 2011, drew 1,954 exhibitors and 118,000 professional visitors to Cologne, according to reports. n The development of CAD/CAM and implantology will continue to be the determining trends at the next International Dental Show, representatives of the organiser Koelnmesse and the Association of German Dental Manufacturers (VDDI) told reporters at a press conference in December. Besides these mega topics, the use of lasers in different fields of dentistry will be given particular attention. Reportedly, more than 2,000 dental manufacturers and distributors have registered for this year’s event, which has been expanded by 5,000 sqm and will fully occupy another hall at the Koelnmesse fairground in Cologne. According to Koelnmesse’s chief operating officer, Katharina C. Hamma, the increase in exhibitors is due to the high demand from companies abroad, which has grown by 10 per cent compared with the last IDS. While the number of domestic businesses will remain the same, almost two-thirds (68 per cent) of all companies exhibiting in 2013 will come from outside Germany. “IDS will prove its position as the global leading trade show in the den- tal industry once again. Its success is an endorsement of our trade show concept,” Hamma explained. “Therefore, 5 Katharina C. Hamma, Chief Operating Officer of Koelnmesse. we will be retaining the successful formula for the upcoming event.” Her company, which hosts other well-known international trade events like Art Cologne and gamescom, stages the global dentistry showcase in partnership with the commercial enterprise of the VDDI and the Society for the Promotion of the Dental Industry (Gesellschaft zur Förderung der Dental-Industrie) every two years. The last edition, held in March 2011, drew 1,954 exhibitors and 118,000 professional visitors to Cologne, according to reports. Hamma announced that in addition to professional activities presented by the German Dental Association and the Association of German Dental Technicians’ Guilds (VDZI), the Federal Association of Dental Alumni (BdZA) in Germany will be hosting a Generations’ Lounge for the first time at next year’s IDS, which is intended to serve as a meeting point for dental students, practice newcomers and established practitioners.

As the dental industry and the health-care sector in general produce a wide range of products, from extremely sophisticated devices to consumables, we as distributors need to be vigilant regarding medical device regulations. The regulatory framework provided by the EU for market access, international business relations and legal agreements is in the patient’s best interest. However, we also think that these matters should be adapted to the dental distributor market. 5 Dominique Deschietere n Supported by growth in major markets like Germany, sales of dental equipment in Europe have proven relatively stable since the last IDS took place in 2011. today international had the opportunity to speak with Arseus Lab CEO and newly elected President of the Association of Dental Dealers in Europe (ADDE), Dominique Deschietere, Belgium, about the current state of the industry, and the challenges that lie ahead. today international: Last year, the European Union announced the revision of its medical device regulations. How is this going to affect the dental industry? Dominique Deschietere: The diversity and potential for innovation in our industry contribute to improved dental procedures and prosthetics, from which the patient can only bene- Why do the current regulations need to be changed at all? The main reason for the revision is that current EU legislation dates from the late 1990s and is considered insufficient by many for our rapidly changing market. In addition, some member states of the EU have tended to interpret some of these rules broadly, which is not necessarily to the benefit of the patient. It also makes competition uneven for those distributors who adhere to the regulations. Therefore, it is essential to impose new regulations in order to increase traceability of dental products within and beyond the borders of the EU. According to a 2011 survey by your organisation, sales of dental materials and equipment in Europe remained relatively stable. What is the current state of the industry on the continent? Preliminary figures from our latest survey of the industry show that, 5 Visitors watching a product presentation at IDS 2011. According to Deschietere, European dental practitioners and laboratories have become rather reluctant to make large investments. except for a few countries, the market has achieved good sales. There might be a slight decrease in traditional product segments, as old technologies are replaced by new ones but it is still too early to provide a clear picture on the current market situation. Unfortunately, not all figures from our 2012 industry survey to be discussed during the IDS are available yet. However, we would like to invite everyone to our AD Free entry During a press conference in December in Cologne, the Chairman of the Association of German Dental Manufacturers, Dr Martin Rickert, said that the outlook for markets in Southern Europe is rather negative owing to the financial constraints the health-care sector is facing at the moment. What is the situation really like there? It is no secret that some countries in Southern Europe that suffered most from the financial crisis are showing a negative trend with regard to dental investments. It is likely that this will be reflected in the sales figures from last year. the continent have become rather reluctant to make large investments. Where do you see the industry heading, and what segments are the most likely to grow in the next few years? We will definitely see significant growth in digital dentistry as new technologies like intra-oral scanners, as well as digital imaging and planning instruments, find their way into dental practices. Dental laboratories too are increasingly making use of CAD/CAM technology. Both these developments will determine how the market and the dental business models will develop in the future.

Have dentists become more wary of investments? Socio-demographic developments and changing patterns of reimbursements by public health services and insurers have had an impact on patients’ health-care spending. As a result of the financial crisis, people have had difficulty accessing capital through bank loans, renting, etc. which means they have less money available for medical and dental care. Consequently, dental practitioners and laboratories throughout material and equipment, rivalled only by North America. How important have markets overseas become? It goes without saying that in terms of economic growth, spending ability and other factors, the BRIC countries hold great potential. Dental distributors in Europe will be involved in this process as we gain access to other products and technologies from around the world. From this, competition will only increase within the EU. Our members will have to follow these changes carefully and learn to respond to them in a professional and transparent manner.

Recently, there has been the opposite trend, which has been a surprise to many, of insourcing previously outsourced manufacturing steps. 5 Dr Martin Rickert, Chairman of the Association of German Dental Manufacturers (VDDI). n The dental industry in Germany is very dynamic in every aspect, technologically and economically. Particularly in the last ten years, the field has seen the introduction of numerous preventative and treatment procedures, all of which were inconceivable a mere 15 years ago. New ceramic dental materials, synthetic filling materials, CAD/CAM in restorative dentistry, digital imaging and implant treatment planning—we have been working as a team in every area, keeping the German dental industry a world leader. Together, we are smart and full of ideas, as well as innovative and flexible in our thinking. Nowhere else can you feel this more than at the International Dental Show, which is to be held from 12 to 16 March in Cologne in Germany. Well, what can you expect to see at the show? CAD/CAM is in- creasingly finding its way into daily practice with an ever-expanding offering of intra-oral scanners of all varieties. Video signals, blue LEDs, the confocal principle, with or without scanning powder, you will have the opportunity to see and experience everything within a day to help you make your purchasing decision. At the same time, once-closed systems can now be used with different software, production units and scanners. This flexibility offers numerous possibilities for you to optimise work procedures in your own practice and in collaboration with your dental partners. Likewise, more and more options are becoming available to you owing to developments in the dental industry. The outsourcing of dental With the recent advancements in CAD/CAM technology, decisions regarding material selection can increasingly be tailored to every single patient. With state-of-the-art ceramic materials, dentists and dental technicians, for example, can work on multiple indications and with conventional metal ceramics using high gold-content alloys, which themselves are very up to date. Modern rapid-prototyping procedures could also become more important in the field of high-performance ceramics. Is everything becoming digital then? The answer is yes, but everything is also becoming more biological and interdisciplinary—nowadays, dentists increasingly refer patients to other medical specialists. The fight against periodontitis and peri-implantitis has to be viewed in the context of systematic disease, a link clearly supported and illustrated by recent scientific results. Therefore, microbiological studies on genetics in particular have gained a more prominent role in dental science. In this field, the International Dental Show is also expected to showcase more precise and faster procedures. In addition, innovations in the field of imaging have made their mark in the high-tech sector. Increas- ingly combined into compact hybrid systems, intra-oral cameras, fluorescent cameras and even polymerisation lamps have become effective tools in the diagnosis of caries and in dental filling. The industry highlight of the year By Katharina C. Hamma, COO of Koelnmesse n The countdown to the International Dental Show (IDS) has started. In a few weeks, the global dental community will meet once again in Cologne. The IDS is the undisputed leading global trade show for the dental industry. A visit to the trade fair halls in Cologne is a must for dentists and dental technicians, other dental staff, members of the specialist dental trade, scientists and researchers. There is no other event in which the entire dental industry—including all international market leaders—presents such a wide range of products and services. The exhibition will be showcasing items from many areas, including dentistry and dental technology segments; infection prevention and maintenance; dental services; and all of the relevant information, communication and organisational channels.

More than 1,950 companies from over 55 countries will be presenting the latest trends, as well as many innovations and services. Once again, the percentage of visitors and exhibitors from outside Germany will increase, as we are expecting to welcome 10 per cent more exhibitors from abroad than we had two years ago. Overall, 68 per cent of the exhibitors will be coming to Cologne from outside Germany. From this, it is clear that the IDS is cementing its position as the leading global trade fair. Visitors to the IDS will be travelling to Cologne from all over the world. Two years ago, some came from as far away as the Bahamas, Trinidad and Tobago, Zimbabwe, Togo, Madagascar, Qatar, Oman, Laos, Cambodia, Tajikistan, Polynesia and Micronesia. This year we are expecting to welcome more than 120,000 visitors from every part of the world, professionals who want to take a closer look at the latest innovations in the industry. Such an international exchange of experiences and business deals is only possible at the IDS in Cologne. Visitors can be sure that there will be no lack of innovations at the fair. The industry’s innovative capacity is well known, and the IDS is the largest show of innovations in the world of dentistry. However, new products and technologies are only 5 Katharina C. Hamma, chief operating officer of Koelnmesse. one side of the coin. As usual, the supporting programme will offer added value. At the Speakers’ Corner in Hall 3.1, for example, IDS exhibitors will provide information daily about new products, services and technical processes. They will also report on the latest scientific and research findings. In addition, the German Dental Association (BZÄK) and the Association of German Dental Technicians’ Guilds (VDZI) will round off the events at the IDS with their professional activities. For an event of this scope, excellent preparation is essential. We offer visitors a number of tools to enable them to plan their visit optimally. These tools include the current update of the IDS app for smartphones, which now features an exhibitor search function and a navigation system to guide visitors through the halls and to stands of their interest. The update also provides information about catering options, local services and the IDS supporting programme. Thanks to the Business Matchmaking 365 function, exhibitors and visitors can communicate with each other even before IDS 2013 begins and after it ends. The online schedule planner makes it possible to arrange meetings with exhibitors in advance via e-mail. Anyone wanting an overview of the latest products can search for them in advance using our online innovation database. All these features will make it much easier to prepare for a visit to the IDS.

In addition, the number of medical specialists is increasing much more rapidly than the number of general practitioners. 06 n The EU health-care sector is facing hard times. With an ageing work-force and insufficient new recruits to replace those who are retiring, the future does not look promising. Owing to demanding working conditions and relatively low pay in some health occupations, recruits are not attracted to the sector. A working document published by the European Commission (EC) last year demonstrates the gravity of the situation. A while ago, the EU member states invited the EC to propose an action plan to assist them in tackling the key challenges facing the health workforce in the medium to longer term. This commission staff working document describes the current status of the sector, among other matters. Health care is one of the largest sectors in the EU, with around 17.1 million jobs in 2010, which accounts for eight per cent of all jobs in the EU-27. The number of jobs in the sector increased by 21 per cent between 2000 and 2010, creating four million new jobs. According to the EC document, the health-care sector even continued to grow during the economic crisis, with the positive trend reflected in all age groups. Forecasts predict that it will remain a growing sector, even though employment growth will be more modest compared with 2000 to 2010. A significant shortage of dentists is evident in Finland. Additionally, the Netherlands is short of dental surgeons. By 2020, there will be a shortage of 150,000 professionals in the group including dentists, pharmacists and physiotherapists in the EU. This means that up to 13.5 per cent of care will not be covered. the EU’s health-care work-force. In 2009, about 30 per cent of all doctors in the EU were over 55 years of age, and by 2020 more than 60,000 doctors or 3.2 per cent of all European doctors are expected to retire annually. Professionals leaving the EU All 27 member states are experiencing migration of health professionals, but western and northern member states are also receiving health professionals from other countries. However, based on the limited data available, outf lows have rarely exceeded three per cent of the domestic work-force. Lack of recruits The health-care sector comprises workers who primarily deliver healthcare services, including health professionals (doctors, nurses, midwives, pharmacists and dentists), allied health professionals, public-health professionals, health management, and administrative and support staff. Some people also work for the health-care sector indirectly, such as those employed in the health-care industries and support services, pharmaceuticals, medical device industries, health insurance, health research, e-health, occupational health, spa, etc. Most health-care workers are female. More than 13.1 million women were employed in the sector in 2010, making up more than three quarters of the health work-force in the entire EU. As the population ages, the demand for health care and thus for labour in this sector will increase dramatically. The number of elderly people aged 65 and over is projected to almost double over the next 50 years, from 87 million in 2010 to 152.7 million in 2060. According to the EC paper, long-term and formal care is likely to increase, with an expected reduction in the availability of informal careers, for example as a result of changing family structures. Currently, most member states are facing critical work-force shortages in certain health professions and medical specialisations or geographical areas. Resulting from this, the retirement bulge is drastically shrinking 5 According to the EU document, Finland and the Netherlands face a significant shortage of dentists and dental surgeons. At the same time, not enough young recruits are coming through the system to replace those who leave. In Italy, 13,400 nurses were due to retire in 2010, but only 8,500 graduated in 2008/2009. Germany is facing serious difficulties in training a sufficient number of graduates, Slovakia has an insufficient number of nurses, midwives, physiotherapists, radiological Effects of tooth whitening under inspection by European Union carried out in accordance with an agreement between the CED and the European Commission that was signed in March 2010 owing to the increasing availability of tooth whitening products on the EU market. The agreement was signed to ensure appropriate tooth whitening treatment through qualified dental professionals and to improve patient safety. n The Council of European Dentists (CED) is currently conducting a oneyear survey on possible negative side-effects of tooth whitening and bleaching products. The committee has called upon dentists in the EU to report their own and their patients’ observations. The survey includes tooth whitening and bleaching products that are not freely available on the market to consumers, that is, those that contain between 0.1 and 6 per cent hydrogen peroxide. It runs until 31 October 2013. The initial results will be reported to the European Commission by the end of this year. Over one year ago, the Council of the European Union passed an amended directive on tooth whitening products, which resolved that tooth whitening or bleaching products containing more than 0.1 per cent and up to 6 per cent hydrogen peroxide will only be sold to dentists. Products with concentrations of up to 0.1 per cent continue to be freely available on the market. Dentists can access the survey anonymously and voluntarily online through the website of their national dental association. According to the CED, only a summary of all responses will be published once the survey has been completed. The research is being The CED is a non-profit organisation, which represents over 340,000 dentists across Europe. It is aimed at the promotion of high standards of oral health care and effective patient-safety-centred professional practice in Europe. assistants and paramedics, and Hungary faces serious bottlenecks in supply caused by a reduced number of graduating nurses. Unfilled specialist training places have been reported in Austria, France, Hungary and Romania. The brain drain, the high outflow of health professionals, does not benefit the member states, as many health professionals migrate to non-EU countries, according to the EC. Health workers migrate to the US, Australia, New Zealand and Canada, and the inflows of foreign doctors with longterm permits have also increased markedly in non-EU member Switzerland (70 per cent increase between 2001 and 2008), where mainly German professionals go. Jobs not appealing The reasons for the lack of healthcare workers are well known. Even though the level of education among health-care and social workers is higher than average, many jobs in the sector are poorly paid. Overall wage levels in the health-care and social services sectors tend to be lower than in other sectors of the economy. This tendency is related to the high rate of female employment in the sector and to the sex pay gap. On top of this, employees are often faced with long and demanding working hours, stress or difficult work-life balance. Those factors are reasons to quit for those already working in health care and make the sector unappealing to recruits. In Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Germany, the Netherlands and Poland, nearly 30 per cent of all migrant doctors come from outside the EU. This figure rises to 60 per cent in France and Italy, and to 80 per cent in Ireland and the UK. European nurses in particular are significantly unhappy with their working conditions. According to the EC document, many report that they intend to leave their hospital positions, with numbers reaching from 19 per cent in the Netherlands to 49 per cent in Finland and Greece. These areas for action reflect feedback from the commission’s public consultation on the “Green Paper on the European Workforce for Health”, which drew over 200 responses from several stakeholders. Dentists needed in Finland and the Netherlands The commission estimates a potential shortfall of around one million health-care workers by 2020, increasing up to two million if long-term care and ancillary professions are taken into account. This means around 15 per cent of care will not be covered, compared with 2010. The EU research project on health professional mobility and health systems (PROMeTHEUS) provides evidence from 17 European countries, for example Denmark, Finland, France, Germany and Romania, that there is an undersupply of health profession- Action to be taken In the document, the EC proposed three areas for action to help tackle the EU health-care work-force shortages: forecasting work-force needs and improving work-force planning methodologies, anticipating future skills needs in the health professions, and sharing best practice on effective recruitment and retention strategies for health professionals. The implementation of the actions requires enhanced collaboration— between the commission, the member states, stakeholders and social partners—and improved coordination across a range of policies (health, education, social, policy, employment, internal market, development and cohesion), the document says. Member states are urged to maximise the use of European funding instruments to support the actions to tackle health work-force shortages and to boost job creation in the health-care sector.

Recent cases have demonstrated that when larger market shares in almost every European market. In many segments, these competitors are either regional or sourced from overseas markets such as Brazil, Korea and Israel. Regenerative products and barrier membranes have been particularly affected by consumer austerity, as these products are discretionary in many cases. looked to expand their product portfolio or create new markets while they create package deals to offset competition from rapidly emerging lowerpriced competitors. Significantly, many European and US companies involved in this market have begun to invest in rapidly emerging periphery markets such as Turkey. Unit share by connection type, Dental Implant Market, Europe, from 2008 to 2018 Increasing prevalence of conical internal connections Dental implants are connected to final abutments in one of three ways: internal connections, external connections or single-unit devices in which the implant and abutment are already attached. Furthermore, internal connections have two sub-segments: buttjoint internal connections and conical internal connections. 5 View of Istanbul. Turkey is expected to become one of the major growth markets for dental implants in Europe. companies lose a segment of support from the scientific community, their market shares tend to suffer significantly. The European dental implant and bone graft substitute market has been further challenged by recent economic instability and the eurozone crisis, which has created a consistent demand for lower-cost dental implant products. As a result, many lowerpriced competitors have begun to seize However, a growing number of consumers continue to demand highquality products, guarantees of service and scientific improvements, which only premium manufacturers are equipped to offer. Conical internal connections is one such recent innovation, and currently constitute the fastest-growing connection type in the dental implant industry. Many dental implant and bone graft substitute companies have Research has shown that a lack of intimate fit of the implant in the abutment or movement of the implant can provide an area for bacterial growth. Conventional butt-joint connections provide a connection that can result in micro-movement between the implant and the abutment, creating a pump effect for bacteria into the connection area. When bacteria are present in the micro-gap, they can cause inflammation, tissue recession and bone loss. Recent clinical studies have demonstrated that, on average, conical connections offer a smaller micro-gap than butt-joint connections, in addition to a greater mechanical level of stability. As a result, conical connection types have become hugely suc- AD or all moments moments in lif life fe FFor —W epared We e ccome ome pr prepared cessful in the dental implant market, and the majority of leading dental implant manufacturers have introduced conical internal connection products. Conical connection types will continue to represent one of the fastestgrowing segments of the dental implant market. Turkey one of the fastest growing markets in the world Turkey is one of the fastest-growing dental implant markets, congruent with strong economic growth that weathered the recession far better than the US and nearly any region in Europe. The technology of dental implants in this country has advanced rapidly, as most of the major players in the European market moved quickly to gain a strong market share in Turkey. Additionally, this market benefits from low labour costs, which adds to the incentive for implant companies to establish domestic subsidiaries or local distribution partners, fuelling options for consumers. Turkey is also a popular destination for dental tourism, especially among patients from more expensive European markets. From 2008 to 2018, the Turkish dental implant, final abutment and computer-guided surgery market is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 20.4 per cent. In May 2011, AGS Medikal Ürünleri, the first major Turkish company to produce dental implants, commenced operations in the province of Trabzon, on the coast of the Black Sea. The company was established with an initial 5 million Turkish lira investment. Market experts predict that the company will soon be joined by other Turkish dental implant manufacturers that will offer lower-priced products to compete domestically and later internationally with larger implant companies.

Digital Digital imaging imaging made easy™ EU medical tourism to strongly impact dental implant market The EU directive on cross-border healthcare that comes into force in 2013 will have a strong impact on the European dental implant market. This directive will target the medical tourism market, which is significant, as dental treatment procedures account for nearly half of medical tourism in most major markets. The directive gives patients the right to be reimbursed for treatment they receive in other EU countries. This could lead to more Western Europeans traveling to Eastern Europe, including Poland and Bulgaria, which are rapidly developing the quality of the medical services they offer. The UK features one of the highest rates of outbound dental tourism, as patients are unaccustomed to large outof-pocket costs for procedures, owing to the legacy of the National Health Service. Whereas rich patients from developing countries used to come to prestigious hospitals in the UK and elsewhere for treatment, outbound medical travel from the UK has been growing far faster than inbound over the past decade, as UK patients are increasingly traveling abroad for lowercost care. Figures suggest more than 50,000 citizens of the UK go abroad for treatment annually. The number of outbound medical tourists from the UK rose by 170 per cent from 2002 to 2009. Dental implant companies follow success of conical internal connection Internal connection types as a whole are becoming increasingly dominant in the dental implant market. Conical internal connections and buttjoint internal connections represented 83.4 per cent of implants with an internal connection in 2011. Conical internal connections is the fastest-growing segment of the market and expected to increase at a compound annual growth rate of 10.1 per cent by 2018. NobelActive (Nobel Biocare) was one of the foremost early successes of conical connection types, and was rapidly adopted by consumers owing to clinical results demonstrating its greater stability and smaller microgap between implant and abutment. The majority of large companies now offer a conical connection, as this market is expected to overshadow buttjoint internal connections increasingly owing to the greater stability and perceived smaller-diameter micro-gap offered by conical internal connections. Many companies are combining these connection types with tapered shape and surface treatments as the current generation of premium products. 7 iData Research is an international market research and consulting firm focused on providing market intelligence for the medical device, dental and pharmaceutical industries.

Parmar, UK be important in the dental surgery of the future. CAD/CAM 5 Dr Nilesh R. Parmar n Dentistry has come along way since our colleagues were forced to use foot powered drills and mix amalgam from its bare components. Modern day dental equipment and materials are at the cutting edge of medical and dental innovation, and it’s shows such as the International Dental Show (IDS) where the developments of the future are announced. Modern dentists no longer have merely a straight probe and a dental drill at their disposal. We now have scans, 3-D images, growth factors and an almost unlimited choice of materials available to use. In writing this piece, I made a tough decision to focus on what I believe to be key areas of dental innovation. It is in these areas of imaging, CAD/CAM technology and growth factors that I believe are going to Computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing has had a presence in dentistry for nearly 20 years. However, only it is only in the last ten years that developments have really made a difference in the reliability, ease of use and functionality of these devices. We now have CAD/CAM machines (e.g., CEREC, iTero, Lava) that can scan an entire arch, design and fabricate all-ceramic restorations in the practice. The popularity of chairside CAD/CAM units has never been greater. The materials that we are able to use in conjunction with CAD/CAM scanners have gone from monolithic, one shade blocks to multi-layered, all-ceramic, lithiumdisilicate constructions that can be sintered and finalised in as little as 15 minutes. The appearance of these restorations, although still needing a welltrained (and artistic) dentist, could be said to be on par with certain lab-based fabrications whilst maintaining the advantages of being a chairside single visit restoration. CAD/CAM technology is now almost universally used in the fabrication of dental implant abutments and bars, reducing construction times, designs and fit. Dentists are now beginning to use chairside CAD/CAM devices to restore dental implants without the need for any impressions. CBCT 3-D scanners and CAD/CAM integration Cone beam computed tomography 9CBCT) scans are now commonplace in dentistry, particularly in implant dentistry where Grondahl (2007) found that 40 per cent of all CBCT scans were 5 Fig. 1 taken for implant treatment. Where 3-D scans were reaching a shortfall was in actually relaying the information obtained into the mouth during the surgical procedure.

The detail achievable with these units is impressive. Once this information is combined with 3-D scans, teeth scans and jaw articulation, a fully working and movable representation of the patient’s head can be compiled on the computer screen. Allowing for treatment planning and assessment to be carried out without any need to see the patient. One application of this may be in developing countries, where various experts from around the world can examine complicated facial reconstruction cases without them actually seeing the patient. As already mentioned, the opportunities for patient education are huge, and with procedures such as plastic surgery and orthognathic surgery being so difficult to properly consent for, facial scanners will greatly aid clinicians. Growth factors AD EASYFOR Implants is a brand made in Italy, which is different from the low-cost products, that are widely deployed in the Italian implant marketplace.

For example, an implant can be planned in the implant software with the angulation of the implant taking into account the ideal position of the final crown, which can also be shown in the CBCT scan. facial aesthetics, orthodontics, implant surgery and orthognathic surgery are endless. HALL 11.3 - STAND K060 In order to do this previously, the dentist would have to make a study model and then wax up the ideal final restoration contour, ensuring some barium sulfate within in the wax in order for it to show up in the scan. This was both costly and time consuming. Recent developments have allowed one to take an intra-oral scan using a suitable device, such as a CEREC or iTero machine, and overlay this with the CBCT scan. No models, no wax ups; the procedure is almost instant and can be done with the patient in the chair. As a patient education tool, this visual format is invaluable, allowing patients to fully understand the proposed work and its execution. Taking this one step further, guided implant surgery now allows us to not only plan implant placement using ideal restoratively driven protocols, but actually allows us to make a guided surgical stent, made in-house or by a lab, and place the implant through the stent. Studies have found that this is an accurate treatment modality that can be reliably executed. Flapless surgery with immediate temporisation has the ability to 5 Fig. 2 revolutionise the patient journey and help us to meet their expectations. Available for a long time in medicine and dentistry, growth factors have been the reserve of PhD students and professors until recently. The resurgence of the usage of platelet rich plasma (PRP) has come about with added research showing that using PRP can greatly improve osteoblast proliferation (Parmar 2009) and accelerate soft-tissue healing. Companies are now offering clinical courses for dentists to make, produce and use PRP in their own surgeries within 15–30 minutes. The main advantage of PRP is that it’s free; is obtained from the patients’ own blood, thus removing the risk of rejection; and can be made in vast quantities. As more research is published, coupled with simpler production kits, PRP use will increase in all aspects of invasive dental surgery. The above is just a short description of what is being developed for the future. Dentistry has never been so intertwined with technology. Facial scanners The next ten years will prove to be exciting and I eagerly await to hear, see and use the new technologies that are being developed today. 7 A small but rapidly developing area of digital dentistry is facial scanners. These are in their infancy at the moment, with a lot of companies still trying to iron out the bugs in the machines. Their potential applications in the field of plastic surgery, Dr Nilesh R. Parmar runs a successful five-surgery practice close to London and is a visiting implant dentist to a central London practice.

Diode lasers: The science in brief 5 5 Dr Fay Goldstep n While dental lasers have been commercially available for several decades and their popularity among patients is unparalleled, the dental profession has taken to this treatment modality rather slowly—although lasers have been thoroughly documented in the dental literature. The laser is an exciting technology, widely used in medicine, kind to tissue, and excellent for healing. Dr George Freedman So why have lasers not been more widely embraced by the practising dentist? There is a widely held perception in the profession that somehow the dental laser is not useful, too complicated, and too expensive. These concerns changed forever with the arrival of the diode laser on the dental market. There is now a conver- LASER is an acronym for light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation. Lasers are commonly named for the substance that is stimulated to produce the coherent light beam. In the diode laser, this substance is a semiconductor (a class of materials that is the foundation of modern electronics, including computers, telephones and radios). This innovative technology has produced a laser that is compact and far lower in cost than earlier versions. Much of the research on lasers has focused on the 810 nm diode laser. This wavelength is ideally suited to soft-tissue procedures, since it is highly absorbed by haemoglobin and melanin. This gives the diode laser the ability to precisely cut, coagulate, ablate or vaporise the AD 5 A A Fig. 1 target soft tissue with less trauma, improved post-operative healing and a faster recovery time. Given its incredible ease of use and versatility in treating soft tissue, the diode laser is the soft-tissue handpiece in the dentist’s armamentarium. C Th The revolutionary technique for immediate loading ® The dentist can use the diode laser soft-tissue handpiece to remove, refine and adjust soft tissue in the same way in which the traditional dental handpiece is used on enamel and dentine. This extends the scope of practice of the general dentist to many soft-tissue procedures. portability, high maintenance profile, confusion of operating tips, and complex procedural settings. Dentists are uncertain of which tip and settings to use for each procedure, and the need for a laser when their conventional techniques have served them well is not clear to them. Enter the diode laser. It is compact and can easily be moved from one treatment room to another. Furthermore, it is self-contained, and does not have to be hooked up to water- or air-lines. It has one simple, replaceable fibre-optic operating tip. “Laser therapy expands the clinical scope of practice” Treatment with the Picasso 810 nm diode laser (AMD Lasers; Fig. 1) has been shown to have a significant long-term bactericidal effect in periodontal pockets. Aggregatibacter 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 are 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. Come visit us!

The power and pulse settings are easily adjusted to suit the particular patient and procedure. Many dentists do not thrive on the challenges of brand new hightech, high-stress technology. In fact, many lasers in the past promised to be user-friendly but were anything but. The 810 nm diode laser is a different experience; after a brief in-office demonstration, the dentist feels comfortable enough to use the laser handpiece to perform some simple clinical procedures. Further online training and lecture courses enhance both clinical comfort level and competency. Diode laser: Affordability Laser technology has always come with a high price tag. Manufacturing costs are high and cutting-[15] =>TDIDS0013_01_Titel TDIDS0013_14-15_Goldstep 19.02.13 12:08 Seite 2 science & practice Show Preview IDS Cologne 2013 5 5 Fig. 2 edge technology commands steep prices, but diode lasers are less expensive to produce. Breakthrough pricing for this technology has now reached under US$5,000. At this level, the diode laser becomes eminently affordable for the average practising dentist. Gingivectomy, haemostasis and gingival troughing for impressions are easy entry points for the new laser user. The Picasso diode laser makes restorative dentistry a simple task. Any gingival tissue covering a tooth during preparation can easily be removed, as haemostasis is simultaneously achieved (Figs. 2–5). The restoration is no longer compromised due to poor gingival conditions and there is no more battling with unruly soft tissue and blood. Gingival troughing prior to impression taking ensures an accurate impression, particularly at the margins, and an improved restorative 5 Fig. 3 outcome. Packing cord is no longer necessary. Operculectomy, excision and/or recontouring of gingival hyperplasia, and frenectomy are not commonly offered or performed by general dentists. However, they are examples of the expanded range of services readily added to the general practice with the diode laser. Dentists become more proactive in dealing with hyperplastic tissue that can increase risk of caries and periodontal disease. A frenectomy is now a simple and straightforward procedure. Two types of diode lasers have been studied for their effects in laserassisted periodontal therapy: (a) the diode laser (which emits high levels of light energy); and (b) the low-level diode laser (which emits low-intensity light energy). There is very compelling evidence in the dental literature that the addition of diode laser Fig. 4 treatment to scaling and root planing will produce significantly improved and longer-lasting results. Scaling and root planing is the gold standard in non-surgical periodontal treatment. Low-level lasers for biostimulation have been used in medicine since the 1980s. The therapeutic effect is non-cutting and low intensity, and covers a much wider area than the traditional laser. Low-level laser therapy is treatment in which the light energy emitted by the laser elicits beneficial cellular and biological responses. At a cellular level, metabolism is increased, stimulating the production of adenosine triphosphate, the fuel that powers the cell. This increase in energy is available to normalise cell function and promote tissue healing. The functions of the diode and low-level diode lasers have remained separate until recently. With 15 5 Fig. 5 the Picasso biostimulation delivery tip, the diode laser is now able to provide both cutting and therapeutic effects. When the low-level tip is used, the laser energy is delivered over a wider area, decreasing the energy level and producing a low-level therapeutic effect. Laser therapy expands the clinical scope of practice to new softtissue procedures that keep patients in the office. The patient’s gingival health is improved in a minimally invasive, gentler manner. 7 The soft-tissue diode laser has become an essential mainstream technology for every general practice. Its science, ease of use, and affordability make it simple to incorporate. Dr Fay Goldstep has served on the teaching faculties of the postgraduate programmes in aesthetic dentistry at SUNY Buffalo, the University of Florida (Gainesville) and the University of Minnesota (Minneapolis), and has been an ADA Seminar Series speaker. She is a consultant to a number of dental companies, and maintains a private practice in Toronto, Canada. The laser is now the essential soft-tissue handpiece for the practice. In fact, there is a case for having a diode laser in each restorative and each hygiene treatment room. Diode lasers make restorative dentistry less stressful, more predictable and more enjoyable for the dental team and the patient.

Only perfect practice makes perfect.” In other words, we can perform a procedure repeatedly over and over again and not obtain the expected outcome for success. We must continually advance in all disciplines of dentistry in order to provide our patients with the most predictable treatment regimens possible, understanding the greatest variable that stands in our way is the human variable. Elevating the standards of endodontic care is inexorably tied to an important dynamic in our armamentaria.48,50 The objective of endodontic treatment has continue to be a constant since root canal treatment was first performed; the prevention or treatment of apical periodontitis such that there is complete healing and an absence of infection,1 while the overall long-term goal is the placement of a definitive, clinically successful restoration and preservation of the tooth. After all, the main objective in dentistry is to retain what nature has created! From about 1985 to 1995 there was more change in clinical endodontics than in perhaps the previous 100 years combined. In these 10 years, clinical endodontics changed forever with the emergence and development of four very important technologies: the dental operating microscope (DOM), ultrasonics, nickel-titanium rotary file systems and mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA).2,3,50 nificantly shown to improve the probability of locating a second mesial buccal canal in maxillary molars. Baldassari-Cruz et al.9 showed that the MB-2 canal was located in 90 per cent of maxillary molars with the operating micro-scope but only 52 per cent with unaided vision.50 Sonics 5 Dr Gary Glassman Where We Were The Dental Operating Microscope Superior vision became attainable with the integration of the dental operating microscope (DOM). Diagnostically, the operating microscope is an indispensable aid in locating cracks and tracking vertically fractured teeth.2,4 It allows a more detailed view of root canal intricacies, enabling the operator to more efficiently examine, clean and shape complex anatomy.5 It provides superior resolution, thereby aiding the removal or bypassing of separated canals.6 A microscope provides an improved surgical technique allowing for smaller osteotomies, shallower bevels and the location of isthmi and other canal irregularities,7 thereby allowing unprecedented success rates of up to 96.8 per cent.8 A DOM has sig- Piezoelectric ultrasonic energy, in conjunction with the DOM, drove microsonic (sonic and ultrasonic) instrumentation techniques that are minimally invasive, efficient and precise.2 Refinement of access openings in a controlled and predictable manner, locating calcified canals with a reduced risk of perforation, removal of attached pulp stones, removal of intracanal obstructions (separated instruments, root canal posts, silver points and posts) and removal of the smear layer, biofilm and remaining debris are just some of the many uses that microsonics are capable of doing.2,10,11 5 The operating microscope has become an indispensable aid in the field. Nickel Titanium Instruments with the emergence of nickel titanium files (NiTi) files.2 This super-elastic alloy has shape memory, allowing for better maintenance of the original canal anatomy. These files produce less extrusion of debris, allow greater cutting efficiency and reduce the time for canal shaping compared to stainless-steel files. They are biocompatible, anticorrosive and do not weaken following sterilization.12,13 Although full rotary has been the mainstay for nickel-titanium systems for years, reciprocating motors have taken the market by storm by allowing less debris extrusion and quicker negotiation to the apices and less file fatigue. Canal preparation procedures became more predictably successful Mineral Trioxide Aggregate In surgical endodontics, specially designed retro tips are used ultrasonically for superior root-end cavity preparation. This allows minimal removal of root structure down the long access of the root canal without the creation of a bevel for surgical access. This subsequently reduces the number of exposed dentinal tubules and minimizes apical leakage.10,50 This decade of extraordinary change concluded with the introduction of mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA).2 This remarkable and biocompatible restorative material has become the standard for pulp capping and has salvaged countless teeth that previously had been considered hopeless.2 In vital pulp therapy, when MTA is used as a direct pulp cap to maintain pulp vitality, studies have shown that these areas were free of inflammation and all of them had calcified bridge formation after five months.49 AD ITALIAN QUALITY AND DESIGN SAME PAVILLON DIFFERENT POSITION BIGGER STAND MTA has proved to be the ideal pulpotomy agent in terms of dentin bridge formation and preserving normal pulpal architecture.49 MTA produces favourable results when it is used as a root-end filling material in terms of lack of inflammation, presence of cementum and hard-tissue formation.49 It is used to repair both furcal and lateral perforations with a relatively high degree of success and to seal both internal and external resorptive defects from an orthograde and retrograde approach.49 The treatment of teeth with open apices and necrotic pulps has always been a challenge for the dental practitioner. MTA can effectively be used as an apical barrier in teeth with necrotic pulps and open apices.49, 50 Where We Are Irrigants and Irrigant Delivery Systems Perhaps the greatest international attention in recent years has fo- www.lascod.com Hall 10.1, Stand D068/E069 cused on methods to improve endodontic disinfection in the root canal system.2 The desired attributes of a root canal irrigant include the ability to dissolve necrotic and pulpal tissue, bacterial decontamination with a broad antimicrobial spectrum, the ability to enter deep into the dentinal tubules, biocompatibility and lack of toxicity, the ability to dissolve inorganic material and remove the smear layer, ease of use and moderate cost. The combination of sodium hypochlorite and EDTA has been used worldwide for antisepsis of root canal systems.15 Sodium hypochlorite has the unique ability to dissolve necrotic tissue and the organic components of the smear layer.16–18 It also kills sessile endodontic pathogens organised in a biofilm.19,20 There is no other root canal irrigant that can meet all these requirements, even with the use of methods such as increasing the temperature21–25 or adding surfactants to increase the wetting efficacy of the irrigant.26, 27 Demineralizing agents such as EDTA have therefore been recommended as adjuvants in root canal therapy in combination with sodium hypochlorite20,28 as they dissolve inorganic dentin particles and aid in the removal of the smear layer during instrumentation.29 It is very important to note that while sodium hypochlorite has unique properties that satisfy most requirements for a root canal irrigant, it also exhibits tissue toxicity that can result in damage to the adjacent tissues, including nerve damage should sodium hypochlorite incidents occur during canal irrigation.15 It is therefore very important that irrigant delivery devices are used that not only allow voluminous exchange right to the apex but also deliver them in a safe an deffective manner without apical extrusion. Root canal irrigation systems can be divided into two categories: manual agitation techniques and machine-assisted agitation techniques.11 Manual irrigation includes positive pressure irrigation, which is commonly performed with a syringe and a sidevented needle. Machine-assisted irrigation techniques include sonics and ultrasonics, as well as newer systems ➟[19] =>TDIDS0013_01_Titel AWAKEN YOUR INNER Artist Endorsed by clinicians around the world, AMD LASERS offers dedicated customer service, innovative technology, and world-class solutions.

Price, CEO and president of the Dental Trade Alliance n The Dental Trade Alliance (DTA) has been representing the interests of the North American dental industry since 2004, when the American Dental Trade Association merged with Dental Manufacturers of America. It is also the organiser of the US pavilion at the upcoming International Dental Show (IDS) in Cologne. today international had the opportunity to speak with Gary W. Price, CEO and president of the dental trade organisation, about the state of the industry and the importance of the show to US manufacturers of dental equipment. today international: At IDS Cologne 2011, the US dental industry was the second-largest group of manufacturers from one country. Are we going to see another increase in participation this year? Gary W. Price: The International Dental Show is a very popular venue for the majority of American and Canadian companies. We see this in the increasing number of companies exhibiting under the joint US dental industry pavilion that we organize in Hall 4.2. For the period 2011–2015, we anticipate additional growth in participating exhibitors of roughly 15 per cent. The IDS attracts the largest number of distributors, government healthcare agencies and authorised buyers of any dental meeting that US manufacturers can attend. It gives our industry the best opportunity to connect with reputable and new strategic partners. The recession seems to have had a significant impact on dental markets in North America. What’s the current state of the industry there and what are the most prominent trends? Sales of oral health-care products and equipment have been increasing moderately since the economic turndown. Certain segments like digital radiography, however, are growing companies and dentists from around the world covet American dental products and equipment for their reliability, versatility and cost. Innovation is important but in general the world wants American products, whether they are new cutting-edge technologies or tried-and-true products used daily by dentists everywhere. How does the show compare to the big US shows like the Chicago Midwinter Meeting or GNYDM? The IDS is seven times larger than all the dental meetings in New York, Chicago or any show organised by the American Dental Association. While US meetings tend to be a more traditional model of companies selling to or educating dentists, American companies typically exhibit in Cologne because they are seeking new global partnerships. 5 Gary W. Price rapidly. This year is shaping up to be a good one for sales owing to pent-up demand and new dentists wanting the latest technology for their practices. Retiring dentists are also increasingly upgrading their equipment to make their practices more attractive to potential buyers. How important is the IDS for American companies with regard to sales, as well as a being a showcase for innovation? Based on demand for exhibition space, attendee registrations and hotel rooms, IDS 2013 is poised to be one of the best meetings ever in the dental industry. While every edition showcases new technologies, the reality is that The EU has recently announced a revision of its existing medical device regulations, which could also affect manufacturers of dental materials and equipment. Do you think that this will have any impact on your industry? The DTA is keenly aware of changing European and other international regulations. The impact of these modifications will probably be low. Many US companies export to Europe and have EU specifications. Our organization is helping to bring international accreditation to the industry so that a company’s products can be accredited and inspected once and approved for sale in most countries. This is something DTA has taken the lead on. Thank you very much for the interview. 7 AD Show Preview IDS Cologne 2013 ➟ 20 such as the EndoVac (SybronEndo, USA), which delivers apical negative pressure (ANP) irrigation,30 the plastic rotary F File (Plastic Endo, Lincolnshire, IL),31,32 the Vibringe (Vibringe BV, The Netherlands),33 the RinsEndo (Air Techniques Inc., USA),9 and the Endo-Activator (DENTSPLY Tulsa Dental Specialties, USA). Of all the techniques listed, only the Endo Vac has repeatedly shown to break the apical vapour lock (the column of gas that is formed at the apical 3 mm of the root canal formed by the hydrolysis of organic tissue by sodium hypochlorite), produce a current of irrigant, remove debris and deliver voluminous amounts of irrigant to the apex without the risk of apical extrusion.15,50 Lasers The integration of lasers is a viable addition to the endodontic armamentarium and has the potential to overcome some of the challenges to successful root canal therapy.51 Of particular benefit is the ability to avoid vibration pain upon access, even in “hot” teeth that are difficult to anaesthetise, and the three-dimensional ability to remove pulpal tissue, bacteria, smear layers and dentin from canal walls via laser energy and hydrophotonic activity. Of particular significance is the ability of laser light to penetrate 1,000 microns into the dentinal tubules.52 Bacterial infiltration into dentinal tubules has been reported to be 400 microns53 and chemical rinses have a penetration depth of only 100 microns.54 This results in the possibility of bacterial entombment and microleakage. The resulting disinfection and reduction of bacteria in the dentinal tubules is significant with respect to providing unparalleled levels of endodontic success.50 Digital Radiography Digital radiography has significantly reduced treatment time for endodontic procedures with far less exposure compared to conventional film. High-resolution digital images are instantaneously generated and easily manipulated for enhanced diagnostic performance. Digital storage of images is simple, allowing quick transfer and communication.34,35,50 Cone-Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) What digital radiography has provided us for imaging in the present, CBCT (cone-beam computed tomography) will carry us into the future. CBCT technology has been around since the1980s, however, only recently has it become a viable option for the endodontic office.36 Cone-beam technology uses a cone-shaped beam of radiation to acquire a volume in a single 360-degree rotation, similar to panoramic radiography.36 It has advantages over conventional medical CT, including increased accuracy, higher resolution, scan-time reduction and dose reduction.36 Endodontic uses include but are not limited to diagnosis of odontogenic and non-odontogenic cysts, cysts vs. granulomas,37 location of untreated canals and the diagnosis of certain root fractures. The extent of internal, external and cervical resorption can be accurately mapped and the presurgical evaluation of anatomic landmarks can be precisely surveyed.36,50 UÊ1 Ê UÊ1 Ê UÊ1 Ê Ê-"Êää£\Óään Ê Ê£Î{nx\Óä£Ó Ê-"Ê£{nä£\Óään U CE n. 0476 U CDSCO MD-1015 Indian food and drug administration Corte del Medà, 27/B - 31053 Pieve di Soligo TV - ITALY - P.I. 04337970265 ÜÜÜ°Ã>vi>`ëi°iÌÊÊvJÃ>vi>`ëi°ÌÊUÊÌi°Ê³ÎÊä{ÎnÊnÎÇÓΣÊqÊv>ÝʳÎÊä{ÎnÊn{Ó{ÓÈ Regenerative Endodontics Regenerative endodontics has become an exciting possibility, allowing stem cells found in the dental pulp to regenerate and replace diseased tissue with healthy tissue and revi- talize a tooth.38 The vascularisation of necrotic teeth with immature apices can be a significant challenge to the clinician. In the past, apexification procedures have allowed root length to continue, but the walls of the roots remained thin, allowing the high risk and probability of fracture. Revascularization techniques provide such a tooth the ability to not only continue linear root growth, but also to allow increased thickness of dentin on the root canal walls, which will ultimately allow retention of the natural tooth, obviating the need for extraction and implant replacement.39 The technique is uncomplicated and easy to learn. Through the use of a specialized triantibiotic mixture, blood clot inducement and its coronal sealing with MTA, many necrotic and immaturely developed teeth that would otherwise be extracted can now be retained.40,50 Endodontics vs. Implants With the advent of implants, patients were able to maintain their occlusion and health in those functional areas that were missing teeth. Unfortunately implants are also being used to replace viable teeth.41 If a tooth is sound from both a restorative and periodontal aspect, then endodontic therapy should be the treatment of choice. However, if a tooth is compromised from a restorative or periodontal perspective, then an implant may be considered.42 Both root canal therapy and orthograde retreatment as a first and second line of intervention are more cost-effective compared to implant therapy. Current cost structures indicate that implants are limited to a third line of inter vention.43 Confidence and embracing the advances in the science and art of endodontics is imperative if we are to continue to achieve and improve the successes that we have achieved. There are numerous studies that support the excellent clinical results of endodontic treatment.44 Kim and Iqbal conducted a review of the relative success rates of endodontic treatment and implants. The literature review found equal survival rates of single-tooth implants and endodontically restored teeth. Both therapies had overall survival rates of 94 per cent, thus providing predictable outcomes.45,46 However, implants have a longer mean and median time to function, and have a higher frequency of postoperative complications requiring additional treatment intervention.47,50 Where We Are Going Science and research will elevate the specialty of endodontics to its rightful pinnacle.48 The cornerstone of our specialty’s integrity and relevance must be built on a strong foundation of randomized clinical trials and evidenced-based endodontics.48 The future of endodontics is bright as we continue to develop new techniques and technologies that will allow us to perform endodontic treatment painlessly and predictably, and continue to satisfy one of the main objectives in dentistry, that being to retain the natural dentition.14,50 7 A complete list of references is available from the publisher.

Are we in danger of losing the battle against the disease? Prof. Newell Johnson: There is some good news. In countries that have long had the reputation of having very high rates of oral cancer, such as parts of France, India and Sri Lanka, the rates of alcohol and tobaccorelated oral cancer are indeed falling. however, hundreds of thousands still die of oral cancer every year. In parts of Eastern Europe and the former Soviet republics, rates of these cancers are rising, we think, because of still high tobacco use, abuse of alcohol and a poor diet. The other piece of bad news is that the incidence of cancers of the oropharynx (as opposed to the lip and in the mouth itself) is also increasing worldwide. 5 Prof. Newell Johnson The same is true of the US, much of Western Europe, and Australia. Here rates are falling from a lower base. In those countries or populations with traditionally very high rates, HPV has been identified as a growing risk factor for oral cancer. What part does the sexual transmission of the virus play in the development of the disease compared with more commonly known factors like smoking or drinking?

These are the same viruses that we know cause cancers of the uterine cervix, penis and anus. It is generally thought that sexual transmission is involved. The evidence is largely circumstantial; that is, these cancers are more likely among younger adults, and there are associations with the number of sexual partners. Fortunately—if that is an appropriate word—these cancers are more sensitive to radiotherapy, and the survival rates/treatment outcomes are better than for most other head and neck cancers. For the past decade, there have been extensive immunisation programmes against these particular papillomaviruses delivered to girls in many countries. These are intended to prevent cancer of the uterine cervix in later life. It will be very interesting to observe, in another 20 years or so, whether this has had an impact on upper aero-digestive tract cancers too. Fortunately, we are beginning to see boys now included in the immunisation programmes in some countries. Some forms of oral cancer have a patient survival rate of only 50 per cent. What makes it so difficult to achieve a more successful therapeutic outcome? The average survival at five years after diagnosis of oral cancer has hovered around 40 to 50 per cent for decades in most countries. In the highvolume specialised treatment centres, patients are indeed doing better, in terms of long-term survival and quality of life/minimisation of disability and side-effects. The major reasons that we are not doing even better is because so many cases are diagnosed and treated so late, and/or patients have severe co-morbidities such as diseases of the cardiovascular system or cancers at other sites. Dentists can play a vital role in the identification of early signs of oral cancer. Is the profession sufficiently prepared for this role? Well, of course one cannot generalise. Many dentists and other members of the oral health team carry out excellent surveillance of each patient. This is indeed our duty. It might be called “opportunistic screening”. Many national dental associations, and the FDI World Dental Federation, vigorously promote such behaviour. There are many excellent training programmes for the detection of patients and lesions at risk. This should go hand in hand with support from dentists for tobacco prevention/cessation, moderation of alcohol consumption, promotion of healthy diets and good hygiene (oral and sexual) for all their clients. On the other hand, the prevalence of potentially malignant disorders, and certainly of overt oral cancer, is low in many countries, so maintaining a high level of awareness and interest among general practitioners is diffi- cult. Some are discouraged because cancer screening may not be a remunerable activity. In South Asia, and emigrant communities therefrom, potentially malignant oral disorders are common, and we have much activity with the professions and the public in these parts of the world. Recently, a study published in the Cancer Research journal has proposed a method of treatment by blocking a protein that plays an important part in the spread and return of oral cancer. What are your views on this research and what are other promising therapeutic approaches? There are very many biochemical/molecular pathways involved in cell division, maturation, migration and metastasis, and death within tissues. Many are targets of investigation and manipulation. Some will prove irrelevant—or at best epiphenomena. Interference with some will also affect normal tissues, especially if they represent exaggeration of pathways that are part of normal cellular controls. An attraction of this particular work is that it seeks to understand pathways critical to stem cells—those cells that provide the basis for continued cell renewal. At the moment, the observations on this pathway in human cancers have been explored in experimental animals. It is some way from human treatment trials, though there are many human studies of other putative biological treatments for oral and other cancers. In principle, this is the way forward. There are a number of oral cancer-screening systems available on the market but their penetration is still very low. Why is this technology not yet part of dental practice? For cancers, and for potentially malignant disorders, in the mouth itself, direct visual inspection and palpation, followed by referral or biopsy, is the best approach. Adjunctive screening tests have not been demonstrated to have utility beyond this and commercialisation can be counterproductive. You have already mentioned genetics. What role will it play in the evaluation of oral cancer in the future? Well cancer is, of course, a genetic disease. There is a small component of inherited genetic susceptibility, but nothing as important as with breast cancer, for example. There is a large component of acquired genetic abnormality, which is being gradually unravelled. So genetic testing is of increasing importance, perhaps for susceptibility, more so for early changes in the tissue during carcinogenesis, the latter perhaps detectable in saliva or blood too. However, every cancer is a unique biological event in an unique individual. Detecting the spectrum of genetic abnormalities in the individual patient, and targeting these with particular designer drugs, or gene therapy or immunotherapy is exciting: we are in the era of personalised medicine. Extensive surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy have not brought the improved outcomes we so desperately need. For the afflicted, the future will be individualised biotherapies. For the world, the future must be primary prevention.

Oemus. n 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 last year’s 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 recently had the opportunity to speak at the company’s headquarters in Tochigi, more than 80 per cent 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 last year, despite unfavourable conditions such as high market saturation and the ongoing decline of the yen against the dollar. sively and now employs more than 700 people in its Japanese offices in Tochigi and Tokyo. NSK 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 says. One of NSK’s recent innovations, launched at last year’s IDS in Cologne, for example, is the Ti-Max Z series, a durable premium handpiece that is claimed 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, and is now distributed alongside systems by major implant manufacturers. Since 2009, Nakanishi has also seen his company regaining its former market shares in Asia through centralised 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 re- 5 NSK still manufactures most of the precision parts in-house. ported in 2011. “That is why economic conditions in our home market NSK asserts it pays close attention have little or no impact on our overall to the needs of its customers, a philosobusiness.

As the top #2E cord on tooth #8 was packed, the top cord on tooth #9 exposed the margin (Fig. 3). Now finishing the preps begun using a fine grit 856-025 bur. 5 5 Fig. 1 As the R&D department of Glidewell Laboratories refines its processes, as well as improving the material’s translucency, aesthetics continue to improve. Advancements to improve the aesthetic properties of BruxZir Solid Zirconia restorations were recently achieved as demonstrated in this case by Dr Michael C. DiTolla, Newport Beach, Calif., USA. While Gidewell does not suggest that dentists suddenly switch all of their anterior restorations to BruxZir crowns, they may want to consider using it for patients with parafunctional habits or old PFMs, where an aesthetic improvement is essentially guaranteed, the company said. During the first appointment, the PFM crowns on tooth #8 and #9 (Fig. 1) were removed with BruxZir Solid Zirconia crowns (Glidewell Laboratories). Then the shade was taken with help of the VITA Easyshade Compact which displayed the shade in both VITA Classical and VITA 3D-Master shades. Next, the selected 2M1 3DMaster shade tab was held to the tooth, along with the 1M1 3D-Master shade tab for contrast. Fig. 2 The shade tabs in the mouth were photographed.

Using a thin, perforated diamond disc, the gingival embrasures were opened to avoid blunting the interproximal papilla, as well as to make sure After two weeks, the temps were removed and the preps cleaned with a KaVo SONICflex scaler. After trimming the gingival margin with the diode laser, an Ultrapak cord #00 (Ultradent) was placed, cutting the cord intraorally on the lingual to avoid any overlap. A second cord Two moistened ROEKO Comprecap Anatomic compression caps were placed on the preps. Then the patient bit with medium pressure for 8–10 minutes. The Comprecaps were removed and the top cords pulled. For the impression, medium body impression material was applied around the preparations with a syringe and a bite registration was taken. Then the temporaries were replaced. During the third and final appointment—another two weeks later—the temps were off, the BruxZir crowns were approved and a layer of desensitizer was placed on the teeth (G5 All-Purpose Desensitizer). A warm Air Tooth Dryer was used after applying both coats of the G5, while the assistant placed Z-PRIME Plus inside the crowns. The crowns were then loaded with a resin-modified glass ionomer cement (RelyX Luting Plus Automix) and seated, using a pinewood stick to ensure that they were fully seated and had the same length. In the “after” picture (Fig. 4b), there is not any porcelain on the BruxZir crowns.

Probably more than ever, clinicians now need to have the right tools for preventing the formation of surface micro-cracks and for achieving the best results for their patients. The next generation of CRANEX Novus e provides excellent image quality with extended imaging values as well as enhanced operation with the ClearTouch control panel. According to the manufacturer SOREDEX, a part of the Finish PaloDEx Group, the system was designed for fast operation at maximum efficiency as well as an easy workflow. The polishing of lithium silicate ceramics also come with particular challenges as their unique design and micro-morphological structure require specially adapted material compositions. With DIACERA, EVE Ernst Vetter already introduced a specialised polishing system based on zirconium oxide and specifically developed for these challenges at IDS 2007. The system has been providing outstanding quality and safety required by dental labs for years. At IDS 2013, this line is now also becoming available for dental practice in order to provide dental clinicians with a safe option to perform necessary adjustments professionally. With this world premiere each stage of treatment can now be polished, according to the company, which makes these tools an alternative in addition to the familiar high quality achieved in the dental laboratory. An optimised heat flow is also supposed to prevent both local phase transitions, a cause for a non-uniform surface and material failure, the company said.

The report is intended to present—in a clear and structured manner—the most important studies on IPS e.max that have been conducted over the course of the past ten years. IPS e.max from Ivoclar Vivadent is a high-performance all-ceramic restorative system comprising lithiumdisilicate glass-ceramic and zirconium oxide materials for the press and CAD/CAM technique. They attest to the successful performance and reliability of the IPS e.max system, according to the company. The system is complemented by a universally applicable nano-fluorapatite glass-ceramic which is suitable for veneering all its components. Since development started more than a decade ago, the IPS e.max has also been investigated by researchers on a regular basis. Many reputable experts have contributed to what has become a valuable resource for scientific data on IPS e.max, according to Ivoclar Vivadent. Fig. 1: The Scientific Report presents results from studies conducted on IPS e.max and its components over the course of the last 10 years. Among other things, the report summarises data on the clinical performance that cover longer periods of time: up to five years for zirconium oxide and up to ten years for lithium disilicate. An overall survival rate of 96.8 per cent for the entire system was calculated by combining the survival rates of IPS e.max Press (six studies), IPS e.max CAD (six studies) and IPS e.max ZirCAD (eight studies). 5 Fig. 2: Success and failure rates of restorations (crowns and bridges) fabricated with the IPS e.max system from Ivoclar (in per cent).

With the MTL X5, external dimensional controls can be carried in a single cycle that only lasts a few seconds, according to the Italian company. The system, which works as an enlarger, is easy to use for any operator and allows to pass from one batch to another with one mouse click. Machine parameters can be set with MTL X5 before values are out of tolerance to prevent discarded items. Furthermore, all data can be collected for statistical controls as well as for producing control certificates that are required to have for quality assurance in different markets. With the MTL X5 the quality of dental implants can be significantly improved and machine downtimes reduced, which are key advantages in the current challenging market environment. During IDS, the machine will be on display at Vici’s booth in hall 2.2. The company, based in Santarcangelo di Romagna near Rimini, Italy, has been manufacturing vision systems and industrial automation solutions since the late 1970s.

Dental labs, who are looking for the best technological solutions to improve efficiency and quality of production process, can take advantage of the huge CAM experience of CIMsystem to guarantee the production of precise items, in line with the end user’s-dentists- best expectations. In recent year, the Swiss dental manufacturer Vanetti has increasingly expanded its reach into international dental markets. Originally sold primarily in Switzerland and Italy, its Dia Tessin branded surgical instruments are now available to dentists and dental surgeons in almost 50 markets in Europe, Northand South America, the Middle East and Asia. Vanetti promotes its products actively through its participation at international trade fairs, such as the upcoming International Dental Show in Cologne, as well as through other marketing efforts. Based in Gordevio in the heart of the Maggia Valley, the company has been run by members of the Vanetti family since the late 1960s. In the mid 1990s, the company was transformed into a limited company by the current CEO and son of the company founder Pablo Vanetti. According to the company, its success is based not only on the production and distribution of high–quality products but also on short delivery times and excellent customer services. In order to achieve this, the company said to have pushed automatisation and rationalisation of its manufacturing processes to a maximum despite its small staff of eight in the company’s headquarter, who make sure that products do not only have the quality that customers demand but also offer competitive prices. More information about the company and its products are available on its website as well as its booth in hall 3.2 at IDS.

INTRA-ORAL WELDING TO IMPROVE IMPLANT SURGERY OUTCOMES copied in such a convincing way that makes it impossible to clearly identify originals solely on the basis of the shape or the colour of the mixing tips. Therefore, it is important to know how to distinguish the originals from the copies, it stated. One of the topics Sulzer Mixpac will be addressing at its booth in hall 3.2 is the hazards copies of original products can pose to unknowing users. On top of the financial damage that copying and product piracy can cause, it can also be potentially dangerous to both purchasers of forged dental products and patients, the Swiss manufacturer of multi-component systems for mixing, metering and dispensing said. Sulzer added that in the same way that banknotes need to be clearly marked, it is vital to have a clear indication which products are originals. Sulzer’s Mixpac mixing tips are two-component static mixing solutions for dental applications having characteristic shapes and colours which are brands of Sulzer. They are exclusively produced in the company’s automated factory in Haag, Switzerland, and can be identified by the Mixpac label stamped at the top bevelled edge of the tip. According to the company, the mixing tips are still Just recently, Sulzer filed a lawsuit in the US District Court for the Southern District of New York against dental materials manufacturer Spident USA and its Korean supplier, as well as International Safety Products DBA iDental in the US for having violated its trademark and patent rights at the 2012 Greater New York Dental Meeting.

The relatively new concept is based on fusion, also called “Syn-crystallization”, a process characterised by the union of two metallic surfaces through the sharing of atoms forming a crystal lattice in the welding spot. According to International Implant Company, the Verona company behind the concept, this rigid fixation reduces the mechanical stress exerted on each implant and prevents the risk of micromovements in relation to surrounding bone which has a significant impact on the periimplant tissue response during immediate implant loading.
