n With more than 550 companies from around the globe participat- ing in IDEM Singapore 2016, there will be plenty of new products to see and discover for dental profes- sionals.Furthermore,participants at this year’s show will be able to find out more about the latest den- tal tools and technologies during a daily symposium presented by the Dental Tribune Study Club at Booth 6N-17 in the exhibition hall on Level 6. In cooperation with Cincinnati dentist and creator of the original tapered implant Dr Jack Hahn, Glidewell Laboratories (Pacific Dental Specialties, Booth 4N-20) has announced the release of the Hahn Tapered Implant System, whichaddstotheextensivelineof the company’s dental implant products, such as the Inclusive Tapered Dental Implant System. The goal of the new system was to make implant therapy simpler, morepredictableandaccessibleto as many people as possible. With its blend of time-tested features and contemporary design, it aims to provide a comprehensive treat- ment solution for a variety of clinicalindications,enhancingthe quality of treatment while reduc- ing the cost of care, according to the company. Its wide array of sizes, root form and unique thread pattern allow efficient placement with a high degree of primary sta- bility in all regions of the mouth, includingfreshextractionsockets. Recently introduced at the ChicagoDentalSocietyMidwinter Meeting in the US, 3Shape’s (Booth 4Q-12) updated dental lab- oratory scanner will be on display in Singapore. Like the smaller D1000 laboratory scanner, the new D2000 processes multiple scan lines simultaneously to im- prove cavity and impression cap- ture. This allows it to accurately scan analogue impressions sent to the laboratory by the dentist. According to the company, this eliminates the need for the labora- tory to pour or create a gypsum model from the impression, and this not only saves it several steps in the workflow, but also allows it to print cost-effective 3-D models instead, based on the analogue impression, if a physical working model is needed. Müller-Omicron, an innovative manufacturer of dental products based in Germany, is offering cus- tomers a completely new range of disinfectants for effective, user- friendly and safe disinfection. Owing to a new combination of active ingredients, ensuring hy- giene in dental practices and labo- ratories has just become easier. Thecompanywillbepresentingits new disinfection products for the first time at IDEM Singapore 2016, attheGermanPavilion(Booth4K-23). Global D, one of the foremost French producers of dental im- plants, will be exhibiting its com- plete spectrum of innovative den- tal implants and surgical kits at the French Pavilion (Booth 6J-02). One of the highlights is a 3 mm diameter, two-piece dental im- plant designed for the restoration of narrow spaces in the incisal areawhereconventionalimplants wouldnotbesuitable.Intendedfor therestorationofmaxillarylateral incisors, and mandibular lateral and central incisors, the implant optimises the management of the soft and hard tissue despite the small amount of space available. Global D’s showcase will also in- clude its implants for subcrestal, supracrestal and transmucosal placement, as well as slim im- plants, pre-implant solutions and surgical kits. German dental instrument man- ufacturer NTI will have its latest portfolio on display too (Booth 4H-15). Its new tungsten carbide instruments, for example, have been optimised for the separation of teeth and roots, as well as for apicectomy. The instrument of choice for surgical procedures, the company’s A-blade runs smoothly while providing excellent cutting. Bone lid preparation and harvest- ing of bone structure for augmen- tation are further possible uses. Also, the new perforated diamond finishingstripsfromNTIadaptpar- ticularly flexibly to the surface of the tooth, and this facilitates prox- imal contouring of Class II, III and IVfillings.Perfectlaboratoryappli- ances are created after reduction of the excess sections of the foil. Designed to smoothen the surface ofallfoils,NTI’sSoftPolisavailable in three levels of abrasion. Differ- ent speeds allow customised fine contouring of all areas close to the sensitive gingiva. The open-pored instruments also reduce the risk of overheating the appliance and distorting it. 7 business 23IDEM Singapore 2016 Show Preview New products and services on display at IDEM 5 Hahn Tapered Implant System 5 Müller-Omicron disinfection products 5 3Shape D2000 laboratory scanner 5 NTI Diamond Strips 5 Global D implant solutions
