FDI WorDental Daily 30 Aug

Friday&Saturday, 30–31 August 2013 Industry 19www.fdiworldental.org IDental manufacturer GC is pre- sentinganewdual-curingself-ad- hesive resin luting cement which comes in the Automix syringe for practical direct application. As G-CEM LinkAce achieves a highly efficient polymerization in self- curing mode, it produces reliable results regardless of which restorative material is being ce- mented, according to the com- pany. In addition, cementing CAD/ CAM and metal-free restorations with G-CEM LinkAce ensure that their margins are particularly wear-resistant. GC said that the material also exhibits impressive shade stabil- ity and adequate radiopacity. G-CEM LinkAce offers very high biocompatibility and no post-op- erative sensitivity because there is no need for prior acid etching of dentin. Fluoride release provides additional protection. The G-CEM LinkAce is recom- mended for a broad range of indi- cations including cemention of all-ceramic, metal and even resin restorationsandposts.According toGC,itdoesnotrequirerefridger- ation and is therefore easy to store, unlike many other resin ce- ments. In Istanbul, GC is also pre- senting EQUIA, a self-adhesive restorativesystemclaimedtopro- vide impressive clinical results in the posterior region. The new concept combines the clinically proven EQUIA Fil high-viscosity glass ionomer material with EQUIA Coat, a light-cured, wear- resistant highly filled resin coat- ing, for a strong restorative mate- rial that, according to the com- pany, takes glass-ionomer tech- nology to a new level. The company has also a newly developed fibre-reinforced com- posite on display. The everX Pos- terior is said to provide new pos- sibilities for restoring extensive cavities and preventing crack propagation into filling materials and tooth structure. The material addresses the growing demand for an economical alternative restorative for extensive cavities, and can be used for restoring enamel and dentine when com- bined with a conventional com- posite, such as G-ænial Posterior. GC EUROPE, NETHERLANDS www.gceurope.com Booth C23-25 AD G-CEM LinkAce IQuality photo documentation is becomingincreasinglyimportantin all fields of dentistry. Particularly in endodontics, treatment outcomes canbesignificantlyenhancedwhen clinicians are able to recognise structures better. The worldwide first adaptable system to all com- mon dental and surgical micro- scopes was developed to support clinicians in this task. As a result, treatment times can be shortened for the benefit of the pa- tient. With a height of only 27 mm, the VarioFocus is small in size but big in per- formance, according to the manufacturer. For more flexibility, clinicians have two working distances to their disposal (215 and 285 mm). The lenses contain cal- cium fluoride which lowers dispersion and corrects aberra- tions. An integrated Protection Guard, featuring a coating that prevents reflections for en- hanced transmission, is supposed to help preventing contamination and the instrument getting dam- aged. VarioFocus systems are avail- able for microscopes from Zeiss, Leica, Global, Labomed, among other brands that are currently available on the market.
