n At this year’s IDS, Ivoclar Vivadentwill present innovations from the competence areas all-ceramics, directrestoratives and implant prosthetics.The company has taken the IPS e.maxsystem to the next level by introdu-cing the IPS e.max CAD-on technique.With this technique, users can fab -ricate high-strength and highly es-thetic bridge restorations consisting ofIPS e.max CAD (LS2) and IPS e.max ZirCAD (ZrO2) material.
Visitors can also look forward tothe introduction of an innovative in-got which opens up new opportuni-ties in the press technology. Ivoclar Vivadent’s press furnace technologyhas also been improved. Another high-light in the field of all-ceramics will bea cleaning paste that has been espe-cially designed to create optimum con-ditions for the adhesive cementationof restorations and thus to provide increased reliability. Furthermore, amultimedia tool on cementation is alsobound to be launched.
In the area of highly aesthetic com-posite materials, such as IPS EmpressDirect, the company will present newmaterials which can be used for thecharacterization of restorations andthe masking of discoloured teeth.
Visitors will have the chance tolearn about the advantages of thelight-curing, universal nano-hybridcomposite Tetric EvoCeram on site.This product has undergone an exten-sive redesign. Tetric EvoCeram willfurthermore be supplied in additionalshades.
In the field of implant prosthetics,high-quality products for removableand fixed denture prosthetics will beintroduced including products for im-plant-borne complete and partial den-tures, fabricated for instance with thenano-hybrid composite SR PhonaresNHC teeth, and new alloys. In addition,the company is extending its range ofcementation options to include a mate-rial for the cementation of permanentor temporary restorations on implantabutments. 7
n For years, dentistry has notonly been focusing to ensure thatthe oral cavity of patients func-tions correctly, but also to estab-lish a perfect ‘balance’ betweenfunctionality and appearance. Infact, an increasing number of pa-tients visit their dentist not onlyto solve their functional problemsbut to eliminate aesthetic discomfortcaused by ‘dissatisfaction with theirsmile’.
Many current tooth whiteningtechniques allow satisfactory aes-thetic results, however, the time spanthat is needed to apply those tech-niques can cause discomfort for thepatient, as well as teeth dehydration or hypersensitivity to temperature. Onaverage, patients have to keep their
mouth open at least 15 minutes fromthe moment on the whitening processbegins.
Due to special photosensitizers,BlancOne, a tooth whitening gel sup-plied by Italian manufacturer Inter -national Dental Supply, is said to activate in less than 20 seconds re -ducing the possibility for dehydrationand hypersensitivity. According to thePresident of the Italian Society of
Oral Hygiene Science Dr Anna MariaGenovesi, as the tooth remains per-fectly hydrated, the whitening effect isstabilizing without colour alterationswhich means that chromogenic-freediets following the treatment are nolonger required.
This product can also have bene-fits for prosthodontists who have tomeasure the chromatic value of teeththat has just been whitened in order
to reconstruct adjacent teeth. WithBlancOne it is no longer necessary towait until whitened teeth have rehy-drated and the prosthodontist can begin working as soon as the whiten-ing treatment has been completed,they say.
In addition to the reduction of chairtime, dentists are also able to use anylamp that delivers 800 mW/cm² (suchas the LED lamps commonly used in
the office for restoration work) foractivation of the formula. As it is photochromatic, the Blancone gelchanges from orange to whitewhen activated to show the opera-tor exactly when the whiteningprocess is completed.
Dental professionals and pa-tients will find a number of audiovi-sual presentations providing detailedinformation about the advantages ofthis innovative whitening treatmentat the Blancone website. The productwill also be on display at IDS 2011 inhall 11.3 at booth B072. 7

n With a comprehensive line ofNarrow-Body Implants, Dentatus
AB from Sweden aims to advances the field of implantology at IDS. Ac-
cording to the com-pany, they are ideal forpatients who have lim-ited interdental spaces,insufficient bone levelthat require otherwiselengthy bone augmen-tation procedures, or financial constraints.
The rec om -mend ed surgicaltechniques allow
minimally invasive flaplessplacement and immediate load-ing. This minimizes most post-operative challenges and dra-matically reduces the total timein treatment.
These implants can solve thetime and money problems for most patients who otherwise willnot proceed with the treatment,the company says. In addition to excellent patient satisfaction,clinical and histological studiesof the Dentatus Anew and AtlasImplant Systems have reportedexcellent bone adaptation andhigh survival levels—creatinggreater healthcare treatmentopportunities for dentistry.
Atlas Denture Comfort Im-plants were designed for the sta-bilisation, cushioning and passive
retention of partials and com-plete dentures. With the TUF-LINK silicone reline, dentures
are retained without housings,o-rings or adhesives.
Anew narrow body im-plants are designed to fit in cases
where there is limiting space, con-verging roots or narrow ridges. The system utilises the only screw-retained narrow body implant sys-tem for strong, definitive reten-tion. Patients receive a fixedrestoration at time of placementwhich is easily adapted to a finalcrown after the osseointegrationperiod.
Implants for both systemsare available in 1.8, 2.2 and 2.4 mm diameters with threadlengths of 7, 10 and 14 mm. The
systems are CE marked and FDAapproved for long-term use and forany length of time as decided by
the healthcare provider.
Dentatus arranges hands-on courses for the Atlas and Anew Implant Systemsin different countries duringthe year. More informationabout these courses and howto sign up are available atthe company’s website or at their booth in hall 10.1 at IDS. 7

n The new sinus retractor fromKohler, a German company, was de-signed asymmetrically, consequentlythere is the R-version for right and theL-version for left. It is also suitable forretraction in the anterior region, there-fore, only these two instruments arenecessary for the complete upper jaw.
During lateral sinus windowpreparation, this new instrument se-cures the mucoperiosteal flap by hold-ing it through “shark teeth”. Therefore,pressing the retractor firmly againstthe jaw bone is no longer necessary.This also benefits the lifting the sinusmembrane and bone augmentationwith or without simultanous implantplacement, the company says. In ad -dition, the shape of the instrument end prevents the instrument from sliding into the sinus window. Onlymoderate retraction force is requiredfrom the assistant due to an anatomi-cal shaped handle.
At IDS, Kohler will also showcasenewly designed cheek retractors, con-sisting of two sideand one front re-tractor. They canbe equally usedfor the upper andlower jaw. Simi-lar to the the com-
pany’s sinus contractors, a handle allows safe grip and ensures the as -
sistant needs onlymoderate retrac-tion force.
Kohler’s par-alleling guide isused for aligning2 or 4 interforam-inal implants inthe edentulousmandible to themedian plane. A
hole is drilled in the middle of themandible using a pilot drill, which is easily aligned to the median plane.The distance to the middle can be ac-curately transferred to the oppositeside by swiveling the fitted parallelingguide. 7

nPentron Clinical,an established leader in the dental con-sumables industry, is offering a varietyof new products for dental restorationsat IDS. As an addition to Pentron Clini-cal’s award winning line of Build-ItCore Materials, the Build-It Light Curewas specifically designed for clini-cians that favor the on-command cureafforded by light cure only core ma -terials. According to the company, the light cure only formulation pro-duces outstanding physical propertiesand is compatible with 4th through 7th generation bonding agents ensuring
compatibility with almost everybonding agent.
The companywill also show-
case Bond-1 SF Sol-vent Free SE Adhe-
sive, a unique, solventfree, self-etch, light-
cure, one-coat,bonding agent, to be used fordirect composite bonding.With this product, the com-pany says to have removedthe solvent while preservingthe high bond strengths as-sociated with conventionalbonding agents. AdrienneCollins, the Pentron ClinicalTechnologies Product Managerstates: “We didn’t feel the immediateneed to assign a generation to this newbonding agent, as we feel this productis in a league of its own and makes thepractice of referring to bonding agentswith generations obsolete.”
Fusio Liquid Dentin, the first flow-able composite from Pentron Clincial tobond to both dentin and enamel with-out a bonding agent, is now indicatedfor restoring Class V carious lesions.Formulated with 4-MET technologyand a new proprietary BPA-free resin,Fusio Liquid Dentin etches, primes,bonds, and restores using only one prod-
uct, accord-ing to thecompany. By
effectively fusing together self-adhesive and restorativetechnology, clinicians will be able to re-store teeth faster than ever saving bothtime and money.
Mojo Veneer Cement,a light cure, aesthetic cementation system de-signed for use with porce-lain, ceramic and compos-ite veneer re storations, is the latest in adhesivetechnology from PentronClinical. It has no detectableshade shift and offers try-ingels that consistently match the polymerized cement, the company
says.
Virtually colourless,the eugenol-free, resin-
based TempSpan Transparent Tem-porary Cement
safely secures provi-sional crowns and bridges
without influencing the overlyingcolour. This dual-curing cement pro-vides the ultimate in flexibility en-abling the clinician to light cure for an instant set in addition to providing
the option of waiting5½ minutes for a chemical cure. Formulated with optimized adhesiveproperties, TempSpan TransparentTemporary Cement secures provision-als in place but can be easily removedwithout damaging the preparation orrestoration. Auto-mix syringe deliveryprovides hassle-free, precise place-ment directly into the restoration withminimal waste. 7

Dental X from Italy—The sterilization company
n According to EN 13060, every den-tist using hollow surgical instrumentsis required to have Class B autoclaves.Class B autoclaves from Dental X, anItalian manufacturer of dental de-vices, are said to provide greater dura-bility and less need for maintenance.
The revolutionary Adaptive Heat-ing Technology allows for safer sterili-zation without damaging or tearingthe instruments. It also offer a 20 percent higher loading capacity for thesame volume which is supposed to reduce running costs and consump-tion of resources like water without restricting performance.
The devices have auto-diagno-sis functionality. They also conform
fully with EN1717 and have Class IIB certification to guarantee maxi-mum safety standards. ISO 9001 andISO 13485 certification have beenawarded by the well known SGS authority.
Dental X provides online supportfor quicker service and less costs. Besides a wide range of autoclaves, the company produces heat sealingdevices. Located near Vicenza in theheart of Northern Italy, the companyrecently opened a new subsidiarywith show and seminar rooms in Milan. 7
n The minimally invasive cosmeticdentistry is a new dynamic movementin modern dentistry which has a pa-tient and defect oriented approachand, therefore, clearly challenges a development that is too technologydriven and quickly prone to over- treatment. In Europe particularly, it isunderstood as a concept that is com-mitted to the prevention and—if still
necessary—the early, strictlydefect oriented restoration ofcarries defects under maxi-mum preservation of healthytooth substance. On the otherhand, it also aims for thesubordination of treat-ments removing aes-thetic deficits un-der the guidingidea of theminimally in-

n Previously,dental cliniciansdealing withimplants had touse several sys-tems with dif-ferent connec-
tions to solve com-plex clinical cases. Therefore, manage-ment of protocols, staff and resourceswas extremely complex. Italian man -ufacturer GEASS has announced to revolutionise implant dentistry withthe introduction of their new advanced way implant sys-tem at IDS.
Accordingto the company,the system isbased on onesingle implantbody and sur -gical protocol, yetoffers three different connectionsnamed after famous Italian cities.While way Milano has an internal con-ical connection, hexagonal base andreduced prosthetic platform to ensurethe long-term well-being of the tissue,way Roma makes it possible to operatein one single surgical step due to atransmucous conical connection withan octagonal base. Additionally, wayVenezia offers an external connectionthat make it useful in cases where flex-ibility in the restorative managementis a must.
A m o n gthe way sys-tem’s manybenefits isSynthegra,an own-de-veloped bio-m i m e t i cclean im-plant sur-face withpre-established geometry for improvedosseointegration. The laser treatment isdistributed uniform on a micrometriclevel over the whole of the implant to pre-vent the transportation of contaminants.
According to the com-pany, way makes it
possible to facili-tate the learn-ing curve, min-
imise the toolsused in implant

nOne hundred and twenty years oldbut young at heart—this is how the Austrian dental manufacturer W&His presenting itself at its anniversary.In 2007, the family-run company wasthe first worldwide to integrate ster-ilisable light-emitting diodes (LEDs)in rotating dental instruments.
Introduced last year, LED maximumtechnology (LED+) is featuring opti-mal colour temperature and constantlight quality, the highest lumen rat-ing as well as the ability for completesterilisation. It also comes with thehighest colour rendering index on the market (over 90) which the com-pany says creates a relaxing working
environment due to high-contrastnatural colour rendering.
The colour rendering index (CRI)is an important aspect of artificial illumination methods, since a higherCRI value contributes significantly to well-being through improved vi-sual perception. Perfect colour ren-dering occurs at an index of 100. Conventional LEDs only attain a CRIof between 60 and 80. Also, the redcomponent of these LEDs is too low—a considerable drawback for manymedical applications. A CRI of morethan 90 produces a high-contrast, natural rendering of red tones in themouth.
LED technology is avail-able in W&H’s new Synea turbines, Alegra contra-an-gle handpieces, and thecompany’s surgical straightand contra-angle hand-pieces.
As the longest-standingmanufacturer of dentalhandpieces and turbines inthe world, W&H is renownedfor the outstanding qualityof its products and socialawareness. By supportingSOS Children’s Villages,W&H has been aiding an independentinter national social development
organisation for disadvantaged and orphaned children founded by Her-
mann Gmeiner in Innsbruck,Austria, in 1949.
The company will be sup-porting the SOS-initiated fa-mily strengthening programmein Kakiri, Uganda, as well asmany small-scale more nation-al causes during its anniver-sary year. Finances for the programme are guaranteed forover two years, the companysays. 7

nDanville’s new Prep-Start H2O Air Abra-sion System sprays aconical mist of wateraround the air-abra-sive stream to capturethe dust. It is availablefor all existing Prep-Starts and can easilybe retrofitted to a clas-sic PrepStart system in about 30 min-utes, the company says.
With PrepStartH2O, the air pressure,abrasive and waterflow can be easily ad-justed for ideal clini-cal use. A water se -lector switch allowsuse with or withoutthe water spray. Ei-ther 27μ or 50μ alu-
minum oxide can be used. Water is easily added to the removable tank.
Placing the filled tank in a microwavefor up to 60 seconds will bring the water to 46 °C, a temperature whichhas been reported to enhance patientcomfort. According to the company,cutting performance is not reduced bythe water. A foot pedal provides instan-taneous on/off control.
Tip sizes are available in .48 mmand .38 mm (.019” & .015”). Nozzles areeasily interchangeable and both hand-
piece and nozzle are steam auto-clavable. As the PrepStart is poweredby a simple air connection, the devicecontains no electronics nor requiresany electrical connections. The unitoperates at 4 to 8 bars (60 to 120 psi).
PrepStart H2O comes completewith one handpiece, .48 mm nozzle, air lines and 27μ aluminum oxide. Instructions provide details on useand clinical suggestions.
Air abrasion, which does not mi-crofracture enamel, is one of the mostconservative treatments. The methodallows prepping into dentin with littlediscomfort, so that anesthesia is rarelyneeded. It is also silent and eliminatesthe whine and vibration of the drill.According to the company, dentistscan treat multiple quadrants in one appointment and with one diagnosisas there is no need to wait for anesthe-sia to take effect. 7
