32 AustrAlAsiAn Dentist proDuCts The range of materials for PlanMill has been extended to include Tetric CAD and IPS e.max ZirCAD The Tetric CAD composite blocks and the IPS e.max ZirCAD zirconium oxide materials have now been released for use with the PlanMill milling units (Planmeca). This provides practitioners with even more opportunities to produce high-quality restorations at chairside. In addition, three new shades have been added to the range of Telio CAD cross-linked PMMA blocks. Tetric CAD is an aesthetic composite block designed for the efficient production of single-unit restorations. Due to the pronounced chameleon effect of the material, restorations made of Tetric CAD optically blend into the existing tooth structure to generate a natural esthetic integration. The block is easy to use and efficient to process: restorations can be milled and polished quickly and then seated using an adhesive technique. The generation of curing lights that can do both: cure reliably and communicate with their operators. The curing light offers a light output of 1200 mW/cm2, polywave LED technology in a broadband spectrum of 385 to 515 nm and a 10-mm wide light guide with a homogeneous beam profile. These features allow an exceptionally efficient application to achieve high-quality results in very short times. Bluephase®is a registered trademark of Ivoclar Vivadent AG.

For even better results. Sound materials and reliable equipment are indispensable for achieving successful direct and indirect restorations. Here is something that many are not aware of, though: the precision with which the light-curing process is performed has also a substantial effect on the durability of composite restorations. This is where the Bluephase G4 – the latest curing light from Ivoclar Vivadent – comes in. The fourth generation of the Bluephase family does not only look stylish but it also offers a new and uniquely user-friendly feature: Polyvision technology. Vibration alerts users to application error Polyvision technology enables the Bluephase G4 to detect if the handpiece is moved during the exposure process and if the restoration can no longer be cured reliably. If this happens, the light emits a vibration alert to inform the operator of the error and, if necessary, automatically extends the exposure time by 10 per cent. If the handpiece moves too much – for example the light guide slips out of the oral cavity – the light automatically switches off so that the curing procedure can be repeated correctly. The advantages for the operator are: easy handling, discreet assistance, reliable curing results and satisfied patients. A curing light that communicates with the operator With its automated assistance system, the Bluephase G4 represents a whole new Bluephase G4 Bluephase G4: Ivoclar Vivadent has developed the first ever intelligent Bluephase EARLY BIRD $249 - TO REGISTER CALL AMALGADENT 1 800 806 450 Don’t miss this rare opportunity to see DR DAVID CLARK TEACHING BIOCLEAR FOR THE FIRST TIME IN AUSTRALIA EXCLUSIVE SYDNEY ONLY SEMINAR & LIVE HANDS-ON DEMONSTRATION • Dr Clark’s goal with composite dentistry has always been to elevate its longevity and health to the “Gold Standard ” • 25 Years of clinical microscope dentistry in a hometown practice • Lab research, hundreds of lectures and hand on courses has enabled him to create matrix systems and methods re-inventing restorative dentistry • Graduated in 1986 with dental degree from University of Washington School of Dentistry Dr David Clark DDS, Inventor of BIOCLEAR Matrix System SPACES STRICTLY LIMITED TO 100! 5 CPD POINTS Monday 25th March 2019 SYDNEY Course 3.30pm to 9.00pm The Sydney Boulevard Hotel 1800806450 www.amalgadent.com.au BEFORE AFTER Print Banner 180x55mm.indd 1 14-Feb-19 4:40:15 PM new composite blocks are available in an MT and HT level of translucency, in five and four shades respectively and in sizes I12 and C14. Zirconium oxide for thin wall thicknesses IPS e.max ZirCAD LT (low translucency) is a monolithic zirconium oxide block designed for crowns and 3-unit bridges. The material allows posterior crowns to be designed in a reduced wall thickness of 0.6 mm and anterior crowns in a reduced thickness of 0.4 mm due to its high mechanical strength of 1,200 MPa (a) and high fracture toughness of 5.1 MPa 1/2(b) . The reduced thicknesses increase the translucency of the restorations and benefit the esthetic outcome. A fluorescent effect can be achieved with IPS e.max CAD Crystall./ Glaze Fluo. The restorations are placed using either a conventional cementation technique or a self-adhesive resin cement, such as SpeedCEM Plus. Sintering is carried out in the Programat CS4 furnace. The LT blocks are available in the shades BL, A1-3, B1-2 as well as in C2 and D2. Extended range of shades for Telio CAD Shades B3, C2 and D2 have been added to the range of Telio CAD blocks for PlanMill. As a result, the cross-linked PMMA blocks are now available in nine LT shades (BL3, A1, A2, A3, A3.5, B1, in addition to the three new shades) and in two different block sizes (B40L and B55). All you need for restorations in a single visit Ivoclar Vivadent offers a treatment concept that empowers practitioners to restore the dentition of their patients in a single visit. In addition to the blocks and cementation materials, the range includes coordinated materials for the entire restorative workflow starting from the OptraGate lip and cheek retractor to luting materials and oral care products. u iPs e.max®, tetric®, telio®, Programat®, speedCeM® and OptraGate® are registered trademarks of ivoclar Vivadent AG. a typical mean value of flexural strength, r&D ivoclar Vivadent AG, schaan/liechtenstein b r&D ivoclar Vivadent AG, schaan/ liechtenstein
