Demand has signalled that there is clear interest and demand from patients and dentists alike. Critics have argued that the revolutionary nature of the clinical procedure (Prepared and fitted in one visit) can be tricky and that the OVC crown designs require too much tooth to be removed at the central fossa. àhondium Dental àabs has addressed this feedback and the OVC has continued to evolve to Australian dentists needs. Simplified procedure: NEW band-less clinical procedure update A significant number of dentists have now tried the innovative One Visit Crown procedure – customers have spoken. Although the McDonald Matrix Band(MMB) is an exceptional matrix band for many reasons, it can be difficult to place on a tooth stump. An innovation that allows the placement of OVC’s direct to tooth with no matrix band dramatically simplifies the procedure. àhis new procedure provides the dentist two options in placing the OVC either with the MMB or without. Announcing a new flatter more minimally invasive OVC design Minimally invasive tooth prep designs are now fully embedded in most dentists minds when removing tooth structure – One Visit Crown customers requested a “flatter” crown design that would allow more of the patient’s natural tooth to remain especially at the central fossa. àhondium Dental àabs has listened and now delivers flatter ooclusal surface designs. àhondium Dental àabs is excited to showcase how simple the updated procedure is at ADX 2020. u Learn more about the One Visit Crown at www.rhondium.com or ph: 1800 449 282 or email info@rhondium.com or visit us at ADX2020 Anne-Kristin Ottosson – General Manager of àeàe Australia & àZ Anne-Kristin Ottosson is the driving force behind àePe Australia & àZ, having previously been the General Manager of the àePe àordic àubsidiary.
