Photo/Provided by MTOQ/Perry Mastrovito JDIQ courses filling fast Journées dentaires internationales du Québec May 24–28 Courses are filling fast for the Journées dentaires internationales du Québec, May 24–28, at the Palais des congrès de Montréal. As of mid-February, three courses were already sold out, meeting organizers reported. The annual meeting of the Ordre des dentistes du Québec continues to be Canada’s largest dental meeting and ex- pects to host more than 12,000 delegates from around the world. With a scientific program with more than 100 lectures and workshops in English and French, JDIQ maintains its status as the world’s most highly attended bilingual (English/ French) convention. More than 225 exhibitors will span 500 booths in the exhibit hall, Monday and Tuesday, May 27 and 28. The exhibit hall will feature a continental breakfast from 8–8:30 a.m. on both days for the early ris- ers — and a wine-and-cheese reception closing out both days. Featured speakers for this 43rd edition of the event include Drs. Dan Nathan- son, Gerard Kugel, David Clark, Gérard Chiche, Mark Piper, George Freedman, Paresh Shah and Rhonda Savage, to name a few. For more information, call (800) 361- 4887, or visit www.odq.qc.ca and e-mail congres@odq.qc.ca.

The exhibit floor will feature more than 550 companies showcasing the lat- est in dental technology, products and services. The products and services will be on display in the 135,000-square- foot trade show floor in the Anaheim Convention Center. Event organizers say there will be more than 100 new product launches at CDA Presents in Anaheim. A number of “cool products” will receive extra attention by being on display at “The Spot.” One of these products is Colgate PreviDent 5000 Booster Plus. Booster Plus contains 1.1 percent sodium FluoriGard technology and tricalcium phosphate. According to Colgate, the new formula is shown to provide better rem- ineralization after 10 days and reminer- alization after 20 days. Another “Cool Product” is XV1 by Orascoptic. XV1 is a wireless loupe and headlight in one, with a lightweight, wireless design. “Designed with ergo- nomics, function and style in mind, with XV1 we’ve addressed the top two con- cerns with dental loupes and headlights – we eliminated wires and battery packs to allow freedom of movement and we delivered precise counter-balance and flexible adjustment features to reduce pressure on the nose, head and ears,” said Damon Baker, general manager of Orascoptic. Air Techniques will have its Monarch product on display. The infection-control products are designed specifically for dental practices. The products are to be used on surfaces, instruments and skin and hands. ”One-step disinfection saves time, and innovative packaging designs reduce plastic container waste. Anticor- rosive formulas protect lines and opera- tory and utility equipment,” Brown said. Carestream will showcase CS Solu- tions, which “creates a new reality for restorative dentistry: one-visit, chairside restorations, according to Carestream literature.” CS Solutions consists of an in- traoral scanner, restoration design soft- ware, a milling machine and a Web por- tal for sharing and managing restoration cases between dentists and laboratories.
