Thursday & Friday, 24–25 September 2015 Business IAleadingproviderofdentalmilling technologies, Roland DG Australia recently announced the introduc- tion of its new wet milling dental machine. The DWX-4W and other newdevelopmentsinRolanddental millingtechnologywillbeondisplay at key dental conferences world- wide, including FDI 2015, the com- pany announced. The recent introduction of CAD/ CAM software, CNC milling machines andnewrestorativematerials,hasrev- olutionised the production of dental prostheses,includingcrowns,copings and bridges. One of the most popular restorative materials is lithium disi- licate that is gaining support from dentalclinicsandpatientsforitssupe- rior hardness and aesthetic qualities. Roland DG developed the DWX-4W millingmachineespeciallytomeetthe demandsofthisgrowingmarket. “By providing a device capable of wetmillingawidevarietyofmaterials with reliable precision, we plan to complement our existing portfolio of conventional dry milling machines that already receive great support from dental labs worldwide,” ex- plained Shane Adams, Distribution Sales Manager at Roland DG. According to Adams, Roland DG has identified a market need that it intends to fill. “In the current market we are fa- miliarwithproductsthatcombinethe functionality of dry milling and wet millingintoasinglemachine,”hecon- tinues, “While these machines can process a variety of dental CAD/CAM materials, they require a cleaning processwhenswitchingbetweenwet and dry milling. This includes the dis- posal of milling residue, then clean- ing the inside of the machine and drying out the processing area.” Roland DG’s multiple device so- lution of either dry or wet milling can handle the simultaneous processing of different materials without the in- convenience and delay of cleaning. “Each machine specialises in ei- ther wet milling such as the DWX-4W or dry milling such as the DWX-50 and the smaller DWX-4. Furthermore, having separate machines provides the opportunity to add an additional unit to meet production demands, withtheabilitytorunfourunitsoffthe one PC,” Adams said. Visitors of the FDI Annual World Dental Congress are invited to visit standBD239toseethenewDWX-4W and exciting new developments in Roland DG’s dental milling tech- nology.

It has been demonstrated to kill viruses, bacteria and fungi and to promote healing processes by activating the metabolism. The ozonised natural gum therapy ef- fectively supports the treatment of acute and chronic inflammation of the gums and, in contrast to chlorhexidine, causes no discol- oration. In addition to olive and castor oil, ozone is a main compo- nent of Hoffmann's PeriO3 Oil. This highly effective combination excels throughitsexcellenttolerabilityand is even recommended for the treat- ment of patients who are pregnant or breastfeeding. Hormonal changes during preg- nancy affect the oral vessels, which are then easier for bacteria to pen- etrate and lead to periodontal di- seasesfaster.AccordingtoHoffmann, PeriO3 Oil is the solution for preg- nant and breastfeeding women, par- ticularly owing to the oil not contain- ing any alcohol. The highly reactive oxygen atoms inHoffmann’sPeriO3Oilpurposefully eliminate the pathogenic anaerobic bacteria and restore the healthy oral flora. The sensitive oral mucosa and the taste buds are not irritated too. The bactericidal and fungicidal properties of ozonised oils have been scientifically proven; when treating periodontal disease, ozon- ised oil provides better results than a 0.2 % chlorhexidine solution. There are significant benefits when it comes to dealing with staphylo- coccus aureus and porphyromonas gingivalis. Hoffmann’s PeriO3 oil is applied into the interdental spaces or the gingival pockets using a blunt can- nula. In order to enhance the effect, professional dental cleaning and cal- culus removal or curettage should be performed prior to treatment. Hoffmann’s PeriO3 Oil is also suit- able for the treatment of gingival in- juries,grindingtraumasandwounds after tooth extraction. Additional mouthwashes are contraindicated during the application, the com- pany said. “I particularly use Hoffmann’s PeriO3 Oil for patients with an in- clination to chronic gum inflamma- tions, but also for those with simple gingivitisandforthetreatmentafter periodontaltreatmentasasupport- ive measure,” explains dentist Dr André Kaczmarek. “I have success- fully treated more than 5.000 cases with this preparation in my dental practice since 1998.” HOFFMANNDENTALMANUFAKTUR, GERMANY www.hoffmann-dental.com Booth A60 PeriO3 Oil contains natural triple formula for healthy gums State-of-the-art dental milling technology on display in Bangkok IWith EQUIA, aesthetic bulk place- ment is now possible in posterior restorations, according to dental manufacturer GC. EQUIA is an ad- vanced restorative system that features a new generation of glass particles (EQUIA Fil Capsules) and a highly-filled resin coating ma- terial (EQUIA Coat). This way, it combines quick and easy handling with good physical properties and aesthetics. As a biomimetic filling material, EQUIA enhances remineralisation by allowing diseased dental tis- sues to heal through the release of fluoride. Owing to the unique sec- ondary maturation effect attributed to saliva, it also provides increased strength for the glass ionomer over time. A single layer of nano-filled EQUIA Coat not only protects the restoration against moisture con- tamination and acid erosion but also exponentially increases the physical properties of the EQUIA filling, in- cluding wear resistance and fracture toughness. EQUIA is routinely used as part of treatment strategies for deeper lesions, caries stabilisation and general restorative care of higher caries risk patients, geriatric and paediatric patients. Over the last five years, the clinical performance of EQUIA has been highly ap- preciated by clinicians worldwide. Togetherwithvariousongoingclin- ical studies, EQUIA is proving itself as a long lasting posterior resto- rative alternative for daily routine practice (in the given indications).
