To many, the Carl Zeiss brand is synonymous with quality and performance – and it’s easy to see why. From first class optics and excellent illumination to ergonomic design and unrivalled functionality, Carl Zeiss magnification products offer the complete package.

This was apparent on the Nuview stand at the British Dental Conference and Dentistry Show 2018, where a number of items were on display, including the EXTARO^®300 dental microscope and an impressive range of dental loupes.

Over the two-day event, delegates were treated to in-depth demonstrations of Carl Zeiss magnification solutions by the Nuview team along with expert guidance on product selection, usability, and maintenance.

Nuview’s very own range of water-based Continu disinfection and cleaning products were also available, including the brand new Cleaning & Disinfectant Wipes for Loupes, which proved extremely popular with attendees.

Practices looking for an alternative to their Sterilox Generator were able to see the latest research demonstrating how a weekly treatment of Continu can disinfect waterlines and remove biofilm for less than £2 per chair per week. Delegates appreciated how the yellow Continu labelling supported compliance with the National Patient Safety Agency guidelines on colour coding for disinfectant products.

Delegates were amazed by the advanced technology of the new CALCIVIS^®imaging system at the British Dental Conference and Dentistry Show 2018.

Crowds gathered to see demonstrations of the innovative, award winning imaging system that enables practitioners to visualise active demineralisation.

Using a recombinant photoprotein the CALCIVIS imaging device identifies free calcium ions released from demineralising tooth surfaces and produces a glowing, visual map of active demineralisation at the chair side.

As part of early caries detection and assessment, the CALCIVIS imaging system helps practitioners to spot demineralisation at its earliest, most reversible stage so that prompt management and preventive therapy can be applied.

The CALCIVIS imaging device also acts as a superb communication tool, helping patients to understand their risk of dental caries, which motivates them to take steps to improve their oral hygiene levels.

Delegates agreed that CALCIVIS represents a significant step forward for preventive dentistry. If you would like to find out more, contact CALCIVIS today.

At the British Dental Conference and Dentistry Show 2018 the Tandex stand was a popular stop – and proved to be an exciting experience!

The idea was to experience the Tandex difference by trying its impressive range of high-quality products.

A student hygienist was on hand to demonstrate correct usage of the toothbrushes, interdental brushes and specialist adjuncts. If they liked the products, delegates then hadthe opportunity to join the Tandex Customer Club to receive samples. They discovered that there is a Tandex solution to meet all patients’ needs, which is why so many practices have made the switch.

Tandex brushes cover every possible dental situation, and delegates were able to see the popular FLEXI™ or PROXI™ interdental brushes in action. PREVENT GEL™, developed especially for use with these brushes, is another favourite with hygienists and once sampled, it was easy to see why.

High-quality products to maintain optimum oral hygiene – this is the Tandex message. If you missed out at the event, click or call to discoverthe Tandex difference!
