Marco Vanni - New Topics and Techniques

The ease of use of Rhein’83 attachments which make them suited for many restoration cases including Implant retained prostheses. In addition, they will present the unique and functional attachments systems called “Sphero FLEX, Sphere Block and Ot Reverse” to easily resolve problems arising from lack of parallelism between implants. In recent courses held, a wide variety of prosthetic solutions in line with the “philosophy” of the company, which consists in applying new techniques to get reliable and valid results, saving on materials and time together with providing an alternative to well known traditional techniques which have been used for years.

08:45---09:25

Patrick Boche - A blueprint for Success

During this informative demonstration, learn the secrets from Gemany’s Patrick Boche (Master technician) as he shares how the perfect artistry and logic of the expanding porcelain system brings perfection to ceramic processing today. His demonstration will offer practical applications and procedures sure to maximize your results including tips and tricks for quickly and easily creating natural aesthetics, and proper use of the ceramic furnace.

09:30---10:10

Rik Jacobs - A new thermoplastic rigid, virtually unbreakable material for full, partials and C&B work

Many problems like breakage, allergic reactions, non esthetic solutions, time consuming techniques and material handling problems can be solved by using a new Thermoplastic material ThermoSens.

10:15---10:55

Zarius Marx - Laboratories of the future

10:55---11:45

TEA

11:45---13:00

Dr. D.M. Beere - Surgical guide management-Tips & Traps Immediate loading of dental implants-role of the Dental Technician

13:05---14:45

Joerg Vogt - In Lab SW4.0 Contemporary labside requirements and how to meet them

This lecture will provide an overview regarding the globally successful inLab CAD/CAM system and its new software inLab SW4.0 launched very recently at the beginning of April 2012. Compromising different components as the inEos blue scanner, inLab MC XL milling unit and inFire HTC speed sintering oven: Sirona’s inLab system provides you with an ideal basis for effective in-house milling. The new software inLab SW4.0 allows the processing of additional indications including telescopes, bars and attachments. Its highly intuitive use combined with an innovative tool concept, optimized user interfaces and diverse data exchange opportunities will raise your lab business up to the next level. Rely on more than 25 years of CAD/CAM experience of Sirona and build your future on value added in-house milling. Furthermore, the’‘Sirona Connect’’ portal allows you to easily receive and process digital impressions directly with participating dentists.

14:45---15:45

LUNCH

15:50---16:30

Dr. M. Dieter - Bond it or loose it (how to cement prosthetic restorations in the practice)

The reliable bond to enamel achieved with the adhesive luting technique has greatly impacted preparation designs resulting in significant preservation of tooth structure. The combination of highly translucent all-ceramics and resin composite cements has opened up a new dimension in aesthetics fulfilling the highest patient demands.Clinical data confirm the long-term success of all-ceramic restorations. However, a perfect luting technique is an integral part of the treatment sequence and requires a careful and clinical protocol. Certain guidelines must be carefully followed in the process of clinical application to ensure the clinical longevity of prosthetic restorations. The lecture will address dental technicians and will give an overview on the various cementation techniques and materials that are available today. It will help dental technicians to get more knowledge about the predictable cementation of their prosthetic restorations in the dental practice in order to avoid typical problems like decementation post-operative sensitivity and discoloration of veneers.

16:35---17:05

Owen Peringuey - More profit + Less risk = Solid Zirconia Restorations

Solid Zirconia restorations have been developed to solve, probably the most frustrating problem a dental laboratory has to deal with: Too little space on the preparation, where layered porcelain or pressed ceramic restorations has been prescribed. Solid Zirconia restorations provides aesthetic restorations that are virtually indestructible, kind to opposing dentition, and economically viable.

17:10---17:40

Louis Steyn - Proposed new curriculum

17:45---18:15

08:00---08:30

Peter Furber - Silicon prosthesis

08:35---09:15

Avi Cohen - Newest technology and ideas in fixed and removable Prosthetics

The lecture is intended for forward-thinking dental laboratory owners wishing to discover how the latest 3D Printing technologies which help them stay ahead of the competition, as well as understand the advantages of 3D Printing with comparison to traditional techniques. This lecture will lay out the industry needs and considerations while thinking about applying the use of 3D printing to their dental production floor.

09:15---10:00

Dr. H. Kotze - Fitting bands/how does your removable work?

Lecture will commence with some interesting controversies in the field of orthodontics, which may have an influence on the children or grand children of the participants. Then will follow slides from a lecture on tooth anatomy and the correct way to fit a band on a tooth soldering purposes. Then I will show some slides on the outcome of some removable appliances and the purpose of some soldered mini-appliances. Then finally discuss the myths of some appliances. Apart from the question time on the lecture I would then like to have an interactive session with the participants regarding any orthodontic aspect they want to bring to the table.

10:00---10:30

TEA

10:30---12:00

Brandon Topham - Anything but ordinary

I will build my ethical presentation around the topic of Anything but ordinary. Starting with Lewis Pugh and his example of behavior making world a better place. I will use real life examples of why success in life is in long term dependent on ethical behavior which may often be seen as anything but ordinary. Principles of success must be centered around an ethical approach to build better interdependence in society. We as individuals must build bonds of mutual dependence to lead a happy and successful life.
