AD FDI-Unilever partnership “Live.Learn.Laugh.” reaches decade-long milestone I By Dr Monica Carlile & Dr Virginie Horn F DI World Dental Federation and Unilever Oral Care are celebrating an important milestone this year, the 10th anniversary of Live.Learn.Laugh., our unique global public-private partnership in oral health promotion. On this special occasion, we take the opportunity to look back with pride at our most important achievements in the long race to improve oral health around the world. WOHD 2014 106 countries, 5 continents, 1 day Thank you for your support worldoralhealthday.org Organized by: In partnership with: The early years of the partnership saw a pioneering phase 1 in which FDI member National Dental Associations collaborated with Unilever Oral Care local companies to improve oral health. From 2005 to 2009, 39 diverse projects were implemented in 36 countries, building capabilities in health promotion and reaching over one million people in local communities. In 2010, the partnership moved into phase 2 of implementation and proved to be a resounding success. With a more focused goal and aligned project designs, the remarkable collaboration between dentists, other health professionals, community workers and school teachers allowed us to reach more than 41,000 people directly—including over 33,000 children— through 29 projects in 27 countries. In addition, thanks to the global and local communication campaigns, it was estimated that LLL phase 2 messages were disseminated at least to 1 million people worldwide. This unique global public-private partnership contributes significantly to the overall FDI vision to 2 www.fdiworldental.org lead the world to optimal oral health. It also contributes to Unilever’s Sustainable Living Plan which aims to help one billion people improve their health and wellbeing. For the past decade, the partnership has been doing exactly that and has been successfully delivering the message to “brush twice daily with fluoride toothpaste”—a message that will continue through the implementation of phase 3 later this year. We are proud to present the partnership, in particular the LLL phase 2 programme, to the delegates at the 2014 Annual World Dental Congress. To this end, FDI and Unilever are organizing a symposium dedicated to showcase the achievements resulting from the worldwide implementation of the 29 projects. Therefore, it is with pleasure that we invite you to attend the LLL symposium taking place on Friday, 12 September at 9:30 at “H Khorana Hall”. Please make sure to visit the FDI pavilion at the Congress for news and details on the results of phase 2 of the LLL partnership and stay tuned to learn more about the upcoming oral health promotion activities that are planned for phase 3.

Fox, Executive Director of the International Association for Dental Research A t the Public Health Section/ Chief Dental Officers’ Forum, which was held yesterday here at the FDI Annual World Dental Congress in Greater Nioda, experts discussed how India could prepare for the phase-down of amalgam following the adoption of the Minamata Convention in Japan last year which made way for a ban on mercury-containing products on a worldwide scale. Dental Tribune on behalf of Worldental Daily had the opportunity to speak with the Executive Director of the International Association for Dental Research (IADR), Christopher H. Fox, who attended four of the intergovernmental negotiating committee sessions on behalf of the dental profession, about the impact the convention will have on dentistry and the future of dental amalgam as a restorative dental material. DTI: The recently adopted Minamata Convention on Mercury includes provisions on phasing down dental amalgam on a global scale. What impact do you think this will have on the dental community and particularly restorative dentistry in the long run? Christopher Fox: I think it must be first pointed out that the Minamata Convention is a very broad treaty designed to reduce all use of and international trade in mercury, as well as the demand for mercury in products and processes. In addition, it is intended to address the need for the reduction of atmospheric emissions of mercury, as well as mercury releases on land and in water. Dental amalgam is included in the treaty as a mercury-added product contributing to the global demand for mercury. In this regard, it is important to note that the treaty calls for phasing down the use of dental amalgam, as opposed to phasing out or banning the use of it. This will give the industry and profession time to make a transition and preserve dental restorative choices for our profession and patients. One of the provisions for phasing down dental amalgam is for countries to set national objectives aimed at dental caries prevention and health promotion, thereby minimising the need for any dental restoration. A greater emphasis on prevention and health promotion is indeed welcome and will provide the greatest benefit to populations. Another provision promotes research and development of alternative dental restorative materials. So, in the long run, dentistry and restorative dentistry, in particular, will have improved dental restorative materials from which to choose for their patients. AD Another area of discussion was the need for best environmental practices in dental facilities to reduce releases of mercury and mercury compounds to water and land. Dentistry must be a good steward of the environment and implement best environmental practices for dental amalgam, as well as for all other dental materials, medical waste and consumables.

What were the most discussed issues in formulating the treaty, and did the outcome meet the expectations of those involved in dentistry? The most discussed dental amalgam issue was a ban versus a phase-down. Led by the Responsible Officer for the WHO Global Oral Health Programme, Dr Poul Erik Petersen, a coalition of concerned dental organisations was able to show country negotiators that a ban would be detrimental to population oral health. Dental amalgam is a safe and effective dental restoration and remains the best restorative choice in many clinical situations or health system situations. As with any complex negotiation, the outcome has met many people’s expectations, but there are those who would have preferred a phase-out of dental amalgam and those who would have preferred no limitations set on dental amalgam. You mention that in the dental community amalgam is still considered to be effective and safe. So why phase down its use at all? Dental amalgam is a safe and effective restoration. The US National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research funded two large-scale randomised clinical trials on the safety of dental amalgam in children and failed to find any adverse health effects. The reason for the agreedupon phase-down is solely the environmental and health effects of mercury in the environment, not the direct health effects of the use of dental amalgam. Mercury poisoning from amalgam is mostly found in countries where recycling of the material is insufficient. Is this not a more pressing issue that should be addressed globally? The proper handling of dental amalgam and its waste must be adhered to by the dental profession and the health facilities in which they work. In addition to the provision in the Minamata Convention calling for best environmental practices, there is a provision calling for dental amalgam to be used only in its encapsulated state. Only some countries require the use of dental amalgam separators and many more dental professional organisations are calling for their universal use. Even if we were successful with our oral health promotion programmes however and could stop using dental amalgam tomorrow by the introduction of next-generation dental restorative materials, dental facilities would need dental amalgam separators in place for at least a generation as currently placed dental amalgams come to the end of their life cycle and need to be replaced. I Christopher H. Fox According to the Convention, a number of products containing mercury will be banned from 2020. Do you believe that amalgam will still play a major role in restorative dentistry by that time? Seven years is a short time frame when we are relying on a research and development pipeline to deliver improved dental restorative materials. Without being too pessimistic, a typical research and development time frame from discovery to clinical use in the pharmaceutical arena is 17 years. So, I believe dental amalgam will still be with us in 2020, but I am optimistic it will play a much-reduced role in restorative dentistry. Alternatives to mercury-containing dental filling material were discussed last year at an IADR–FDI workshop on dental materials. Is there any viable alternative, and what needs to be done to implement and sustain its use in the future? The symposium at the recent FDI Annual World Dental Congress in Istanbul was actually a much-condensed summary of a two-day workshop held in December 2012 at King’s College London. In brief, yes, we can have much-improved, innovative dental restorative materials, but it is going to take a significant commitment from government funders, academia and industry. Keep in mind that even if a new material could be developed within a one- or two-year time frame, clinical safety and effectiveness trials and regulatory approvals will take significantly more time. Practising dentists have an important role here too, as they can participate in research networks evaluating new materials and identifying research questions, not to mention advocating for research funding with policymakers in their country. For a more complete answer to your question, I would refer your readers to the proceedings, which have just been published in the November issue of the Advances in Dental Research, an e-supplement to the Journal of Dental Research. With the advent of preventative dentistry, stem cell research and the sophistication of tooth replacements, will restorative materials become obsolete someday? Dental restorative materials are already obsolete or nearly obsolete for the socially advantaged post-fluoride generation. Our greatest challenge is addressing the oral health needs of socially disadvantaged and vulnerable populations. The IADR has a research agenda to reduce these oral health inequalities across populations and hopefully we will reach a point at which dental restorative materials are rare for everybody.

By Prof Li-Jian Jin, Chair, FDI Oral Health Atlas Task Team. F DI has just opened its ‘data hub for global oral health’, an evolving online database of oral health statistics and indicators. It has started out with a limited amount of information but it is anticipated that the content will expand and deepen in the coming months. The ‘hub’ has been developed under the guidance of the FDI Oral Health Atlas Task Team, and aims ultimately to provide a one-stop shop for all information pertaining directly or indirectly to global oral health. Evidence-based decision-making is a key issue in the international healthcare community: it promotes good science, encourages transparency and professional accountability, and helps focus efforts and monitor progress. Data bring efficiency and effectiveness to the strategic decision-making process. In the field of healthcare, data are especially important, where reliable information is crucial for the effective allocation of scarce resources. This is why it is vital to remedy the dearth of data in the field of oral health/disease and oral care. FDI’s Oral Health Atlas has proved to be a landmark achieve- AD ment since it was published in 2009, filling a void; nevertheless, with data dating back, in some cases, to the 1990s, and only a limited number of indicators available, its information is now in need of an update. From the perspective of health policy, the lack of oral health data has hampered the World Health Organization’s (WHO) efforts to develop, for oral health, a comprehensive global monitoring framework including a set of indicators to monitor trends and to assess progress in the implementation of healthcare strategies and plans. FDI and its partners worked hard to ensure that the 2011 UN Political Declaration on the Prevention and Control of Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs), from which WHO’s action plans derive, recognizes that oral diseases pose a major health burden for many countries, share common risk factors with the main NCDs, and can greatly benefit from common responses to NCDs. The challenge is to quantify that burden so that, as of now, year on year progress can be made and measured. Thus, it is anticipated that the ‘data hub for global oral health’ created by FDI, the leading international organization in the field of oral healthcare, and available to its member national dental associations and a wider public, will also help to provide a sound basis for a future global oral health monitoring framework. As for content, the ‘data hub’ will cast the net much wider for information. For example, the crucial role of social determinants in oral health will make socio-economic data a key component. So will the data on incidence of NCDs such as diabetes where a close relationship with oral disease has been clearly established. The originality of the hub is not in the content, which, for the moment at least, derives from a number of publiclyavailable sources; rather, it is in the ‘packaging’, centralizing the wide array of data and indicators from around the world. Contrary to traditional databases, the evolving FDI database aims at pointing out that more effort should be made towards filling the gaps in oral health data worldwide. As such, the ‘hub’ will be a powerful advocacy resource for the huge efforts that urgently need to be undertaken, a unique source of data collection and an essential tool for all those who are interested in improving the state of oral health in the world. 6 www.fdiworldental.org[7] =>WDD0314_01-24.pdf [8] =>WDD0314_01-24.pdf Science & Practice Saturday & Sunday, 13–14 September 2014 Not meeting standards of care Medical and dental negligence in India discussed. By Dr George Paul S LIABILITY FOR NEGLIGENCE A doctor, dentist or hospital charged with negligence can be liable under three broad areas. The liability of a doctor arises not when the patient has suffered any injury, but when the injury has resulted owing to the conduct of the doctor, which has fallen below that of reasonable care. In other words, the doctor is not liable for every injury suffered by a patient. He or she is liable for only those that are a consequence of a breach of his or her duty.4 The liability may be civil (torts), criminal or statutory. everal definitions for medical negligence exist. Baron Anderson defined “negligence” in the course of the famous case of Blyth v. Birmingham Waterworks Company (1856) as “The omission to do something which a reasonable man, guided upon those considerations which ordinarily regulate the conduct of human affairs, would do, or doing something which a prudent and reasonable man would not do. The defendants might have been liable for negligence, if, unintentionally, they omitted to do that which a reasonable person would have done, or did that which a person taking reasonable precautions would not have done.”1 Dr George Paul maintains a private practice limited to oral and maxillofacial surgery in Tamilnadu in India. On Saturday afternoon, he will be presenting a workshop on the medico-legal aspects of dentistry as part of the FDI 2014 scientific programme. A complete list of references is available from the publisher.the line. The operative word in the definition is “reasonable”. This sets the benchmark in determining “standard of care”, the breach of which is the quintessence of negligence. We therefore understand that, for an act to be considered negligent, a doctor, who owed a certain standard of care, must have not main- © Andresr/Shutterstock.com tained that standard or there must have been an injury resulting from the lack of care. (The injury should be compensable.) There should also be a connection (proximity) between the negligent act and the resultant injury. In fact, for an act to be considered a medical negligence, it must AD FDI 2015BANGKOK Annual World Dental Congress 22 - 25 September 2015 - Bangkok Thailand fulfil all four criteria mentioned above. In understanding negligence, one must also grapple with the exceptions to negligence. A review of decided cases shows that some of the situations mentioned below do not fall under medical negligence. For example, absence of informed consent in an emergency or patient dissatisfaction with progress of treatment or even charging excessively are not considered negligence.2 A professional standard of care is generally that standard of care or skill that is determined by a body of professionals on behalf of the medical profession. It does not have to be of the highest level though. It is here that the term “reasonable care” is exercised. The test of the standard has traditionally been the Bolam test,3 which is used to determine scientific validity and accommodates two or more deferring opinions in the treatment of a particular condition. In this context, one must also deal with two important aspects of treatment or care, customary practice and accepted practice. Cus- In India, there is yet another liability as a result of medical services being brought within the ambit of the Consumer Protection Act (1986). This was the result of a prolonged legal battle in IMA v. VP Shantha (1995),5 which finally decided that medical service was clearly within the definition of service envisaged under the Consumer Protection Act, which is a quasi-judicial legal premise to render swift justice in the event of a deficiency of service. It generally comes under civil or tort liability. If charged with civil liability, the defendant is made to compensate the complainant with liquidated damages, which may be simple or exemplary as decided by the judge (or juries in many parts of the world). Some instances of negligence may invite punitive actions under criminal law and may include imprisonment, fines or both. However, in India, there are decided cases, as in Jacob Mathew v. State of Punjab [2005],6 in which strict guidelines have been laid down for criminal action against doctors. They cannot be arrested for death or disability caused during treatment unless a medical board deter- “Accepted practice is generally an evidence-based practice...” tomary practice may be a common practice. However, if it is not validated by science, it is not recognised in law. Accepted practice is generally an evidence-based practice and is accepted in law. For example, many people do not use rubber dams during root canal treatment. It may be a customary practice, but it is wrong. Using rubber dams is, however, an accepted practice even if it is not applied universally. In the event of accidental ingestion of an instrument, only the accepted practice will prevail. www.fdi2015bangkok.org www.fdiworldental.org 8 www.fdiworldental.org Contributory negligence is a mitigating clause in liability for negligence.

The relevant sections in the Indian Penal Code are Sections 337, 338 and 304A (a rash and negligent act causing simple injury, grievous injury or death, respectively).7 Like several other countries, India has statutory bodies in the form of its medical council and dental council, which can institute enquiries into negligent acts by medical or dental persons who are registered under these bodies. They can prescribe punitive action, ranging from removing the doctor’s name from the register to imposing retraining before being permitted to return to practice. It is important for doctors and dentists to be aware of medical negligence so that they can take adequate care to prevent unnecessary litigation.[9] =>WDD0314_01-24.pdf Assistina 3x3: Clean inside, clean outside NEW The new Assistina 3x3 cleans and maintains up to three instruments automatically.

By Dr Jo Frencken, Netherlands. W inning a competition is usually something to celebrate. The Global Burden of Disease 2010 study ranked untreated caries in permanent teeth first on the prevalence list of 291 diseases and injuries, with severe periodontitis ranked sixth and untreated caries in primary teeth tenth.1 Not exactly a cause for celebration, I would say, but more a profound wake-up call for the dental profession worldwide to analyse the structures through which it currently manages dental diseases to determine realistic and feasible means of improving the situation. Before the Global Burden of Disease 2010 study was even published, we already knew that too many cavities all over the world went untreated. We also knew that the prevalence of this condition differed significantly on a global scale, with many countries, such as those in Scandinavia or even my home country, the Netherlands, just to name a few, having done extremely well in © spotmatik/Shutterstock.com I Owing to increased life expectancy, teeth need to function for a longer period of time. this regard.2 In addition to a restorative–rehabilitative care system, they have a well-functioning oral health infrastructure, including state and private health insurance systems, and, most importantly, a good communication system with the public, through which the adverse effects of sugar consumption and the beneficial effects of regular brushing with a fluoride toothpaste are discussed and monitored through a well-established recall system, and public communication measures, such as television promotions. After all, dental caries is a biofilminduced behavioural disease that, supported by preventative measures, can be controlled through personal behaviour, as recently reported.3 Children attending educational and preventive programmes at university clinics 2.8 times on average per year since their birth showed a 9 % prevalence of dental caries and a mean DMFT (decayed, missing or filled teeth) score of 0.25 at age 4, compared with similarly aged children whose mothers had elected against attending such a programme. Their caries prevalence was 81 % with a mean DMFT score of 4.1. Dental caries is a dynamic disease and does not always progress from a lesion in the enamel to the dentine and further into a dentine cavity. A carious lesion can be halted by preventive treatments and by positive changes in a person’s oral health behaviour. This indicates that, in contradiction to what is being taught, it is not always necessary to drill into a carious lesion that has just reached the dentine without causing a clear cavity. If performed too early, drilling would be an unethical treatment that contributes to the repeat restoration cycle, which is known to lead to the early death of a tooth.4 AD Nowadays, life expectancy has reached up to 100 years in a few countries and this number may increase further in the future. People are expected to live much longer than they were 50 years ago. This means that teeth need to function for a much longer period. It was inevitable that the dental profession would begin changing its restorative-driven approach for managing dental caries into a preventative communicative and communitydriven approach, backed by education, that considers restorative intervention as a last resort instead of a primary measure, as advocated by organisations such as the FDI World Dental Federation5 and World Health Organization.6 It is not news that the development of carious lesions can be prevented. This has been known for 30–40 years, although there was not as much information available then as there is now. The philosophy of minimal intervention dentistry (MID) is an attempt to serve the public in the current century, and to keep their teeth healthy and functioning into old age. Its goal is to preserve as much sound and remineralisable tooth tissue as possible, starting right from infancy. While MID makes use of evidence-based preventive and restorative measures, it is also open to alternative treatments. It consists of five principles: proper diagnosis and caries risk assessment 10 www.fdiworldental.org Dr Jo Frencken is head of the Department of Global Oral Health at Radboud University in Nijmegen in the Netherlands. On Saturday morning, he will be presenting a paper on the history of minimal intervention dentistry as part of the FDI 2014 scientific programme. at regular intervals, optimal evidence-based measures for the prevention and arresting of carious lesions, an individualised recall system for reinforcing behavioural actions and for providing preventive care, minimally invasive operative interventions based on biofilm eradication and the use of adhesive dental materials, as well as the repair rather than replacement of faulty restorations.7 Since dental caries forms part of the common risk factors for general health, dental professionals will have to co-operate more closely with medical professionals. At health care centres with mother-and-child care facilities, nurses need to be trained to inspect the mouths of infants, give advice to the caregivers and, if necessary, refer them for treatment. Why should these nurses counsel mothers about all other paediatric diseases, but not about dental caries as the most common child disease? The same applies to paediatricians. Many Western countries can no longer balance their health care and oral health care budgets, and as a result they have exploded. If we feel collectively responsible for the first-, sixth- and tenth-ranked items on the list of the most prevalent diseases and injuries, then urgent action is necessary. The MID approach is a good step forward. It is applicable not only to cariology and restorative care, but also to periodontology and rehabilitative care. Dental professionals should not rely on high-tech devices and sophisticated equipment to the extent that they do when it comes to the treatment of carious lesions. If dental curricula worldwide embraced this philosophy and dental professionals worked more closely with medical professionals and the public, then we might create a future scenario in which a different disease will be first on the list in the next systematic analysis on global diseases and injuries.[11] =>WDD0314_01-24.pdf [12] =>WDD0314_01-24.pdf Business Saturday & Sunday, 13–14 September 2014 FDI, New Delhi, Greater Noida, 11 "# $%$!

Petri Kajander, Product Manager for Planmeca’s CAD/CAM solutions, explains the revolutionary features of these new products. PLANMECA PLANSCAN– SUPER FAST INTRAORAL SCANNER The new Planmeca PlanScan is a digital and powder-free intraoral scanner that scans the patient’s dentition quickly and accurately. The scanner produces real-time digital impressions from one-tooth to fullarch scans. Thanks to the open STL data, the scanned files can be sent to any dental laboratory for design work. This is the world’s first dental unit integrated intraoral scanner that can also be connected to a laptop. “The scanner has only one cable, so it is extremely easy to move from one place to another, for example between different treatment rooms or clinics”, says Product Manager Petri Kajander.“ In addition, the scanner is delivered with a laptop, so the device can be flexibly shared between different users. In other words, Planmeca PlanScan offers value for your investment: it is not a device for just one dentist but can be used by the entire clinic.” The scanner utilises blue laser technique. It projects a pattern on the surface of the teeth and then analyses it from different directions while cal- culating distances. In this way, the device is able to calculate a model that is extremely accurate. “You can view the result as a real-time video image. The video recording and the dental surface identification algorithm make the device extremely flexible to use. Thanks to these features, you can pause the scanning at any time and continue later on at any point from where data is already available.” The scanner includes a range of exchangeable tips in various sizes, the smallest of these facilitating access to the posterior parts, particularly with small children and trauma patients. The tips can be autoclaved for efficient infection control. In addition, the scanner is extremely durable since it has no other moving parts inside except for a fan that removes warm air. “Thus, the device stays calibrated and is not subject to mechanical wear”, explains Kajander. PLANMECA PLANCAD EASY – EFFICIENT DESIGN TOOL FOR PROSTHETICS Planmeca also offers dentists a new kind of open software solution for 3-D design. Planmeca PlanCAD Easy is seamlessly integrated in Planmeca Romexis software and it is a user-friendly design tool for the design of inlays, onlays, veneers, crowns and bridges. “The software runs on the socalled floating licence basis. This means that it is not tied to just one computer or workstation, but the work is saved on the Planmeca Romexis server. In this way, the scanning station can be used only for scanning, while another workstation is used for the actual design work. This is a truly unique feature, which allows work to be continued straight away on another computer, while the scanner is freed for more productive operation”, says Kajander. Every dentist designing his or her own prosthetic works will also face cases that require assistance from a dental laboratory. For this reason, Planmeca’s system utilises an open STL file format that allows the work to be sent immediately to a partner via the Planmeca Romexis Cloud service. Since Planmeca PlanCAD Easy is integrated in Planmeca Romexis software, soft tissue scans can also be conveniently paired with the patient’s CBCT image. This combined data provides valuable information for implant planning, for ex- 16 www.fdiworldental.org ample, because in addition to the soft tissues, it visualises the crown that is designed for the occlusion. This facilitates the planning of the implant screw’s location. The Planmeca PlanCAD Easy workflow from preparation to the finished result includes just five easy stages: work description, scanning, marking of the margin line, automatic design, and sending the work to the mill. “Once the work has been sent to the mill, it is transferred there in its entirety and the mill’s computer finishes the work. In this way, the software and scanner are immediately freed for a new assignment.” The software is very user-friendly. All design phases are saved automatically, and if further impressions are needed, previous phases can be returned to flexibly. The automatic design software automatically takes into account the adjacent teeth’s cusps and marginal ridge in addition to the contact strengths defined by the user. This creates a design that always fits its surroundings. PLANMECA PLANMILL 40–FAST AND PRECISE MILLING UNIT FOR DENTAL CLINICS Planmeca PlanMill 40 is an extremely precise four-axis milling unit operating under the control of its own computer. The device is suitable for all the indications of a single tooth, in other words for the milling of crowns, inlays, onlays and veneers. The mill can manage bridges of up to five units to the posterior and three units to the anterior area. Since the mill handles the milled pieces completely independently, as many as several dozen pieces can be sent to the mill at a time. In addition, the device tells which block size, colour and material should be used, so any member of the staff can place the block in the mill. “This saves everyone’s working time. The dentist does not need add the block himself, but anyone can do it”, says Kajander. The mill has a six-tool exchange mechanism, and it changes tools independently according to different job requirements. In addition, the device mills different materials according to their properties. For example, it knows how to gently handle delicate ceramics in work phases that require precision. “If you force the material, it may break prematurely. Even the smallest hairline crack in the material can lead to a cemented piece breaking when pressure is applied on it.” Also, the maintenance of the device is care-free. The mill’s own computer calculates the service life of the tools, monitors wear and reports on them via the user interface. It also calculates the time that milling will take and lets the user know when the tools or water should be replaced. “Similar to a car, a mill requires maintenance at certain intervals and notifies the user of this.” AN IDEAL SOLUTION ALSO FOR LABORATORIES For dental laboratories, Planmeca offers a comprehensive solution utilising the open STL file format. Planmeca PlanScan Lab scanner is an accurate desktop scanner utilising blue light for scanning gypsum models and impressions. The device scans gypsum models fast and effortlessly with an accuracy of 15 micrometres. Designing takes place in the open Planmeca PlanCAD Premium laboratory software, which can be used for the design of all prosthetic pieces, ranging from one-tooth units to fullarch structures. The software can also be used to design individual abutments, implant bridges and bars for cemented and screwed solutions. Designing begins with defining the margin line, after which the path of insertion is selected and the structure designed. Several automatic functions assist in the design work, and as the design progresses, the software shows the contact areas, material thickness and distance to the antagonist or adjacent tooth. A diagnostic wax-up made in the laboratory or anatomic models saved in the software can be utilised in the design work. The software has an Order Manager page that brings efficiency to the workflow by reporting the stage of each work. In this way, several work orders can be entered in the software in one go. The last phaseis always saved in memory so working can be continued freely at the most suitable time. In addition, precise values can be set to each work for the cement gap and milling unit’s blade. An open STL file is created as a result of the design work, and it can be manufactured with all milling units supporting the open file format, including the Planmeca PlanMill 50. This milling unit can be used for the milling of all most common materials, excluding metals. In addition, the open file can be sent to a milling centre for manufacturing, such as Plandent’s own PlanEasyMill milling centre.[17] =>WDD0314_01-24.pdf Welcome to one of the largest meetings in the world and to the exciting Brazilian Diversity!

In addition, colouring with VITA In-Ceram YZ COLORING LIQUID can be carried in order to achieve even subtler shade varia- I VITA YZ DISC HT. tions. Based on industrial standards, this controlled colouring process is claimed to provide shades of uniform quality, thereby avoiding time-consuming and error-prone manual colouring. A high-translucency material variation was also added to the proven VITA In-Ceram YZ DISC for the efficient fabrication of monolithic, fully anatomical zirconium dioxide restorations. Owing to the high translucency of the new VITA YZ DISC HT, veneering is not required, providing a relatively inexpensive yet attractive alternative to non-veneered or partially veneered metal restorations. According to VITA, the HT DISC is also suitable for use as a substructure material in restorations intended to exhibit natural translucency.

However, they have to be strong enough to survive demanding biomechanical loading and torsion, despite their small dimensions. With its NobelActive implant, the Swiss manufacturer Nobel Biocare has a 3.0 mm implant in its portfolio, that was specifically designed for the replacement of single-unit maxillary lateral incisors as well as mandibular lateral and central incisors. These very visible singletooth sites require highly aesthetic restorative solutions that, according to the company, can be reliably delivered with the NobelActive 3.0 implant for the long-term. Since there is not much bone to work with in areas like the ones recommended for this implant, maximum bone preservation has been a key priority in engineering aspects of the new design, the company said. Therefore, the apex of NobelActive 3.0 was equipped with integral drilling blades, that allow for a smaller initial osteotomy. In addition to the drilling blades on the tip of the implant, reverse cutting flutes allow clinicians, who are experienced with NobelActive implants, to adjust the implant position to achieve optimal restorative orientation. This Nobel Biocare said is particularly useful in the extraction sites that are common in single-tooth anterior restorations. creasing or stable bone levels, Nobel Biocare reported. Soft tissue variables have been stable throughout the study and the survival rate very high. Dr Scott MacLean from Halifax in Canada finds NobelActive 3.0 to be tised as a smart and reliable intraoral imaging plate system for dental radiography that was developed to make the daily imaging workflow in dental practices easier and more efficient. According to the Finish manufacturer, it can be used for all intraoral applications and patient sizes and provides excellent clinical results for improved diagnostics. Optime system from multiple operatory rooms and to share images, among other things. System guides correct exposure settings and prevent imaging plates to be inserted improperly. Image plates for DIGORA Optime are available in all intraoral sizes (0, 1, 2, 3 for periapical or bitewing and 4C for comfortable occlusal projection imaging). They have a 100 per cent active area and are comfortable for the patient, the company said. An optional imaging plate iden tification system (IDOT) adds to quality control. The DIGORA Optime system also complies with latest hygiene standards through Opticover protective covers that are supposed to prevent the cross-contamination of the plates. In addition, the avoid mechanical damage and information loss which is caused by ambient light. Biocompatible and 100 per cent waterproof, they are Latex- and PVCfree. With DIGORA Optime, clear and sharp high contrast images that provide accuracy to the smallest clinical details can be obtained under a familiar film-like workflow within just seconds, the company said. A smart auto-optimization function adjusts the grey levels of the image and compensates accidental over- or underexposures. A standard network (LAN) connection allows clinicians to access the DIGORA www.fdiworldental.org NobelActive 3.0 is widely available through the company’s sales channels around the world.

SOREDEX, FINLAND www.soredex.com Booth C52–55 “The platform shift with conical connection maintains a solid, tight connection that is easy to restore. The thread dimensions and design make it the perfect implant for placement in upper lateral and lower incisors, and it feels very familiar to place and restore,” he added. For Dr Philippe Russe from Reims in France, NobelActive 3.0 has also become the implant of choice for excellent aesthetics in challenging single-tooth anterior situations. “The extra bony volume around the implant supports longer papillaes, improving the aesthetic outcome of usually difficult cases. With its well-known excellent initial stability, platform shifting and conical connection, the new NobelActive 3.0 has everything you need in a small diameter implant specially designed for narrow anterior spaces”, he said. Owing to its expanding tapered implant body, with double-helix thread design, NobelActive 3.0 compresses bone gradually, which is minimising trauma and providing high initial stability even in compromised bone situations. Built-in platform shifting is also part of the design to ensure maximum soft tissue volume for natural-looking aesthetics. An internal conical connection with hexagonal interlocking is supposed to provide a tight seal and secure positioning of the abutment, a must-have characteristic for any first-class, bone-anchored, single-tooth restoration. Intraoral imaging plate system from Soredex to enhance diagnostics 20 the perfect complement to the larger diameter NobelActive implants that he has been using for years. “It is a great implant to use in tight, aesthetically demanding areas of the arch. Like the others in the Nobel Active family, it provides excellent results due to its principles of design.” NOBEL BIOCARE, SWITZERLAND www.nobelbiocare.com Booth B109–116 Dental photography made simple by SHOFU I For almost a century, SHOFU Dental (Booth C78–81) has been an international household name for dental clinical and lab products. However, the company has also been manufacturing and selling equipment for digital dentistry and photography, but only in its home market in Japan. With the introduction of the new EyeSpecial C-II, SHOFU brought a new digital camera to FDI 2014 in Greater Noida, exclusively developed for use in dentistry. Made completely in-house in cooperation with experts in photography and cosmetic dentistry, the camera was conceptualized to be useful for a wide range of dental applica- ror or cheek retractor. Another unique feature of the camera is that it enables photos to be transferred immediately from camera to PC, Smart Phone, iPad, etc. “This camera is so simple and predictable that it provides a fool-proof solution for dentists, enabling even those without any indepth knowledge of dental photography to take accurate photos every time. The entire dental team, even in multi-specialty practices, will benefit from it,” Loke told Worldental Daily in Greater Noida. Prior to its premiere here at FDI 2014, the camera has been showcased at large dental meetings in the US, China and Singapore. But now it is here, in India, that the EyeSpecial C-II was presented to a large community of South Asian dental professionals for the first time. “We believe that FDI 2014 is the most suitable event in India to launch the EyeSpecial C-II as it will give this unique product regional exposure in South Asia,” explained Loke.
