PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS Amann Girrbach Amann Girrbach’s new milling unit to improve the digitisation of dentures Amann Girrbach has released the new Ceramill Motion 3, an intelligent hybrid machine designed to make fabricating dentures more convenient and digital. At the same time, users can benefit from a variety of materials and indications as well as the company’s high fabrication quality. The Ceramill Motion 3 is designed for wet and dry operation. The five-axis milling machine operates autonomously and can therefore manufacture unsupervised during night-time or on weekends when connected to the AG-Live platform. Users can access the intelligent hybrid machine remotely to receive orders safely and quickly, as well as monitor everything related to production and customer service. Additionally, the integrated analysis functions allow workflows in the laboratory to be analysed and optimised on an ongoing basis. Guided computer-aided design (CAD)/ computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) production and maintenance, an intuitive human machine interface (HMI), as well as integrated radio frequency identification (RFID) tools and holders ensure process reliability and facilitate the handling of tools and consumables. Innovative sculpturing technologies, such as C-Clamp, allow fissures to be milled into the front surface of the restoration with the Ceramill Motion 3. “The machine thus meets the needs of both the dental technician as well as the laboratory manager and marks a milestone in the digitisation of dentures,” said Nikolaus Johannson, head of the global business unit lab CAD/CAM at Amann Girrbach. ■ Oral-B Oral-B introduces new AI-integrated electronic toothbrush Oral-B has announced its latest technological innovation, the Oral-B iO10 with iOSense, an artificial intelligence (AI)-integrated device at the Mobile World Congress Barcelona. The new iO10 is accompanied by a smart device called iOSense, which offers realtime guidance with the aid of AI and a personalised brushing experience that ensures healthier gums and teeth. In the press release by Oral-B, the new iOSense will guide users in when, where and how to brush their teeth. It also comes with a magnetic charger that charges the brush in about three hours. For users on-the-go, it comes with the Power2Go charging travel case. The Oral-B iO provides a deeper clean of teeth and gums, allowing users to maintain oral health easily and effectively. Compared to manual toothbrushes, the Oral-B iO helps users to get six times more plaque removal along the gumline, and healthier gums and whiter teeth in one week. Benjamin Binot, senior vice-president of P&G Europe Oral Care, said: “The innovation represents a new era of brushing that is more than just an electric toothbrush – it’s a fusion of groundbreaking technology, desirable design and amazing performance. iO10 with iOSense is our latest commitment to building a digital health ecosystem that leads with advanced technologies, accessible solutions and more effective educational tools to improve oral care and health for all.” Maike Siemons, Europe R&D Oral Care leader, also commented: “Our clinical tests show that Oral-B iO delivers a deeper clean of teeth and gums versus a manual toothbrush, but now with iOSense, the personalised brushing experience will revolutionise our entire relationship with our oral health.” According to Oral-B, in a sixmonth clinical study, 96% of patients using Oral-B iO moved from non-healthy to healthy gums, users have 14.5 times higher odds of moving from non-healthy gums to healthy gums compared to a regular manual toothbrush, and Oral-B iO removes 62% more plaque than Sonicare DiamondClean SMART along the gumline and 26% more plaque in hardto-reach areas. ■ The new Oral-B iO10 with iOSense 66 DENTAL ASIA MARCH / APRIL 2022
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS Align Technology Align Technology announces Invisalign system innovations for Align Dental Platform Align Technology’s Align Dental Platform will receive Invisalign system upgrades and innovations. The Align Dental Platform combines software, systems and services designed to improve dental experience and workflow. The new innovations include Invisalign Practice App, Invisalign Personalised Plan (IPP), Invisalign Smile Architect, and ClinCheck Live Update for 3D controls. Particulary, the ClinCheck Live Update is a new feature in ClinCheck Pro that enables doctors to generate modified Invisalign patient treatment plans. With this feature, doctors can use 3D controls to make changes to a ClinCheck plan and see these changes in a revised treatment plan in about two minutes. This eliminates “weeks of back-and-forth interactions” between doctors and Align computer-aided design (CAD) designers, and also communicates the doctor’s clinical intent more accurately. The Invisalign Practice App is a new mobile companion to the Invisalign Doctor Site that streamlines practice workflow by putting many of the Invisalign treatment features that doctors use daily, such as photo capture, Invisalign Virtual Care, Invisalign Virtual Appointment and Invisalign SmileView simulation into one app. IPP is a new technology feature in ClinCheck Pro software designed to streamline the treatment planning process and help doctors achieve their desired treatment plans more consistently and efficiently. It combines automated and near real-time ClinCheck treatment planning software with the creation and management of doctor-specific treatment preferences, such as doctor’s prescription choices, clinical preferences, among others. Invisalign Smile Architect delivers orthorestorative treatment planning with a facially-driven treatment planning approach. It combines iTero intraoral scans, facial photos, and ClinCheck software to help doctors create treatment plans that integrate orthodontics and restorative treatments for their patients. With the ClinCheck In-Face Visualisation tool, doctors receive a facial rendering that they can use for treatment planning and help patients visualise their smile after both Invisalign treatment and restorative dental treatment. Each of these innovations is designed to enhance Invisalign treatment planning quality, efficiency, and scale, and contribute to a better doctor-patient engagement and treatment outcomes. ■ VOCO VOCO Profluorid Varnish – now in pina colada flavour VOCO Profluorid Varnish (VPV), dental desensitising varnish with fluoride, is now available in pina colada flavour. The pineapple-coconut flavouring has augmented the existing portfolio to seven flavours: melon, mint, cherry, caramel, bubble gum, cola lime and pina colada. The varnish dries in seconds – at the same time it feels natural and has a pleasant taste so that it can be left on the teeth for continuous fluoride release. VPV is ideally suited for the treatment of hypersensitive teeth as well as sensitive root surfaces. Treatment with VPV is also a sensible precaution following professional cleaning and polishing, in order to replenish any depleted calcium fluoride depots. The fluoride content is 22,600ppm fluoride (≙5% sodium fluoride). A good cariostatic effect can be ascribed to the xylitol that is also included. In addition, the transparent white varnish convinces with its high level of moisture tolerance and excellent adhesion to dental hard tissue. Thus, VPV promotes a confident, fresh smile — even directly after application. HYGIENIC SINGLEDOSE Like all the other members of the VPV family, VPV pina colada is available in the hygienic SingleDose and the 10ml tube. The SingleDose is designed for a single use only — each patient receives their very own product. This is an easy way to avoid the risk of cross-contamination as well as other potential for contamination. Furthermore, the material can be applied quickly and easily from the handy packaging — ideally by using the enclosed brush. ■ DENTAL ASIA MARCH / APRIL 2022 67
