Als mittelständi- sches Unternehmen hat man sich auf die Entwicklung, Produktion und den Vertrieb von zahnmedizinischen und zahntechnischen Materialien spezialisiert. In über 70 Ländern pro- fi tieren die Anwender von dem her- vorragenden Anwendungskomfort und Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis der Produkte made in Lindlar, Germany. Dazu zählen ein umfangreiches Sortiment an Abformmaterialien (A- und C-Silikone), Bissregistrier- materialien, Laborsilikone sowie ein komplett neu überarbeitetes Des- infektionsprogramm mit Schwer- punkt auf die Wischdesinfektion. Alle Desinfektionsmittel erfüllen die neuesten Anforderungen der VAH und aller EN-Normen inkl. EN 16615. Um der immer weiter fortschrei- tenden Digitalisierung im Dental- markt gerecht zu werden, spricht und handelt Müller-Omicron nun auch digital. Das Unternehmen hat sich in den letzten zwei Jahren inten- siv mit lichthärtenden Materialien zur generativen Herstellung von zahntechnischen Objekten wie Mo- delle, Gussobjekte, Schienen etc. be- schäftigt. Das Ergebnis ist die neue Materialklasse LC-Print Model/ Cast/Tray und Splint. Alle LC-Print- Varianten eignen sich für alle Dru- cker im DLP-Verfahren. In Halle 4.2, Stand J090 der IDS 2019 wird LC- print und weitere Neuigkeiten erst- malig dem Fachpublikum vorge- stellt. „Wir alle sind gespannt auf die Reaktion und freuen uns auf eine große Anzahl an Besuchern“, so der Marketing- und Exportleiter des Un- ternehmens, Jens Günther. its founding Since in 1961, Müller-Omicron has spoken and un- derstood the language of dentistry. A medium-sized company, it specia- lises in the development, production and distribution of dental materials for dentists and technicians. In more than 70 countries, users ben- efi t from the outstanding ease of use and price–performance ratio of the products, which are made in Lindlar, Germany. These include an extensive range of impression mate- rials (A- and C-silicones), bite regis- tration materials, laboratory sili- cones and a completely new disin- fection program, with a focus on wipe disinfection. All disinfectants meet the latest requirements of the VAH and all EN standards, includ- ing EN 16615. In order to keep up with the ev- er-increasing digitalisation of the dental market, Müller-Omicron now also speaks digital. Throughout the last two years, the company has been intensively involved in developing light-curing resins for the additive manufacturing of dental objects such as models, cast objects, occlusal splints and drilling templates. The re- sult is the new material class of LC- print model, cast, tray and splint. All LC-print variants are suitable for all DLP printers. At IDS 2019 (Hall 4.2, Booth J090), LC-print and other news will be presented to trade profession- als for the fi rst time. “We are all ex- cited about the response and look for- ward to a large number of visitors,” said the marketing and export man- ager of the company, Jens Günther.

Aber wie kann der Praktiker wis- sen, welche Implantate von derartigen Verunreinigun- gen nicht betroffen sind? Die CleanImplant Foundation hat eine strenge Analyseproze- dur entwickelt, die neutrale Ergebnisse durch ein akkre- ditiertes Prüfl abor sicher- stellt. Diese Ergebnisse sind Grundlage für ein neues weltweit etabliertes Qualitäts- siegel, die „Trusted Quality Mark“. CleanImplant über- prüft live, d. h. vor Ort, mit einem eigens installierten Rasterelektro- nenmikroskop Implan- tat-Muster. Experten des Prüfl abors demonstrieren Analysemethoden im REM, die Teil des Vergabeverfah- rens für die Qualitätsauszeichnung sind. Auf der IDS in Köln können sich Zahnärzte selbst ein Bild über ihr verwendetes Implantat-System und die Transparenz des Prüfverfah- rens machen (Halle 11.1, B020–C021). Ein Vortrag am Mittwoch, 13.03., 17 Uhr in der Speakers Corner, fragliche Passage 4/5, zeigt, dass steril nicht gleichbedeutend mit sauber ist. Organic impurities, found on nu- merous sterile-packaged dental im- plants of many implant brands, are suspected to have a negative infl u- ence on early stages of osseointegra- tion and possible peri-implantitis. But how can the clinician know which implants are not affected by these impurities? The CleanImplant Foundation has established a thor- ough and accredited testing proce- dure that guarantees unbi- ased results for a new global quality seal for dental im- plants, the Trusted Quality Mark. At IDS, the non-profi t or- ganisation with international impact is performing a live and on-site scanning electron microscopy quality check of dental implants, and experts are demonstrating the meth- ods of analysis that are part of the accredited testing proce- dure. Dental professionals who want to be assured that their implant system is safe and clean are invited to visit the CleanImplant booth (Hall 11.1, Booth B020–C021). In ad- dition, a lecture at 17:00 on Wednesday, 13 March, at Speakers Corner (Passage 4/5), titled “How clean is your implant? Consequences of impurities on sterile-packaged implants”, will re- veal more details, as results of cur- rent quality assessment studies ex- plain why sterile does not necessarily means clean.
