GNYDM special salutes achievement n Aribex® , a worldwide leader in handheld X-ray technologies, is celebrating the production of 10,000 NOMAD® handheld X-ray devices here at the Greater New York Dental Meeting at booth No. 3538. In marking this milestone, Aribex willprovidecustomerswhopurchase a NOMAD during the meeting 10,000 centsintheformofafresh$100bill.In addition, purchasers will be entered into a daily drawing for a no-charge total care plan, a $495 value. Unlike the conventional wall- mount and portable X-ray systems, NOMAD handheld devices from Aribex are lightweight, rechargeable (battery-powered), and can go any- where. Dental professionals around the world have rapidly chosen the NOMAD as their preferred X-ray device, both in and out of the office. “We’re proud that because the NOMAD has been so widely accepted in the market, we’ve been able to reach this 10,000-unit milestone,” By Osada staff n In 1984, Osada developed and introduced Enac, a piezoelectric ultrasonic system and multi-purpose instrument that can be used in vari- ous applications in the dental field. Utilizing the wonderful nature of piezoelectric ultrasonic system, Enac has been used extensively in endo- dontic and periodontic treatments. Because it is automatically tuned, Enac system is user friendly. It pro- vides a continually stable oscillation at any level of power with any of the chosen tips; its ease of operation enhances the users' technique in achieving excellent results. The clinical application of the ultrasonic device in the oral surgery field has been seen in a variety of dif- ferent contexts such as the ultrasonic scalpels, apicoectomy, bone surgery in the maxillofacial area, to name a few. In particular, bone surgery, which uses the piezoelectric element (the dynamic energy in the ultrasonic wave), ensures minimal invasion to biologicaltissuesincludingbloodves- sels and nerves, which in turn leads to faster healing after surgery. Upon introducing the Osada Enac OE-W10, featuring extended power setting #10 through #12 and sterile irrigation by saidKenKaufman,presidentandCFO of Aribex. “We’ve worked hard to get to this point, and we can’t thank our customers enough for their continued patronage and support.” Recently,Aribexdonateditsactual 10,000th NOMAD unit to the Chris- tian Medical & Dental Associations (CMDA). Headquartered in Bristol, Tenn., CMDA centers much of its work on humanitarian outreach — the com- mon denominator of both organiza- tions. “The NOMAD handheld X-ray was created in response to humanitarian needs,” Kaufman said. “We thought it appropriate to donate this historic unit to CMDA, an organization that does wonderful work among those who need the help so desperately.” CMDA will utilize the NOMAD as a diagnostic tool by dentists and dental the peristaltic pump, many extended applications in oral surgery became easily attainable: atraumatic tooth extractions, osteotomy, osteoplasty, sinus lift, split ridge, crown exten- sion, implant preparation, corticot- omy, etc. With Osada's latest model, Enac OE-F15, the focus is on the powerful but safe bone cutting (power #10 through #15). The surgical tips (also known as ultrasonic scalpels) enable the surgeons to present the magical effect (Osada's signature): fine, pre- cise cutting results. Combined with newly introduced stronger tips, the OE-F15 makes the minimally invasive surgical proce- dures easier to attain by cutting the bone faster but leaving the adjacent soft tissue, blood vessels, nerves, etc., with minimal injury. The ergonomi- cally designed SE15 handpiece stays cool and its LED illuminates the surgi- cal area. The built-in peristaltic pump with simultaneous irrigation mini- mizes temperature increases on the handpiece, tips and the surgical area. Along with the Enac OE-F15, Osada still leads the industry with many other products including: • OSADA ENDEX and ENDEX PLUS: The most accurate third generation students as part of its Global Health Outreach program. CMDA schedules 45 trips to 25 countries each year. In addition, CMDA helps train dentists in emerging nations, lectures at inter- national dental schools and is devel- oping a ministry for disaster relief. “We’re grateful for the capability the Aribex donation will provide CMDA,” said Dr. Peter E. Dawson, founder of The Dawson Academy, a renowned training center that has apex locators. The original Endex is a compact sensor that guides you through root canal preparations with visual and audio feedback indicating the critical apical region. Capable of determining the root canal length under wet canal conditions, there is no patient discomfort due to low cur- rent. Precise readings of root canals eliminate the risk of over instrumen- tation and reduces X-ray use. The Endex Plus functions as two apex locators built into one compact console. It can measure canals in the original Manual Reset Mode (Endex), and it can also measure canals with the added Auto Reset Mode. This allows the user to measure most canals in an easy one-step method while allowing the possibility of switchingbacktomanualifautoreset is not attainable. The Endex Plus magnifies the criti- calapicalregionofthecanal.Theuser is able to visualize the distance from the apical foramen and signals with an increasing pulsating alarm from provided continuing dental educa- tion courses for more than 30 years. “CMDA will put this X-ray device to good use in dozens of humanitarian dental missions.” Aribex will share the humanitar- ian outreach journey made by the 10,000thNOMADonitswebsite,www. aribex.com, where visitors can follow the travels of the NOMAD and CMDA intheirfocustobringgreateraccessto care to those who truly need it. the constriction area to a continuous alarm as the file reaches the anatomi- cal apex. • OSADA XL-S30 Oral Surgery and Implant Handpiece System: This high- torque/low-speed micromotor hand- piece system with built-in peristaltic irrigation system has an air-free sur- gical drill system designed for oral surgeons.
