The British Dental Conference and Dentistry Show will now take place 13th-14th May 2022 at Birmingham NEC

CloserStill Media, organisers of the British Dental Conference and Dentistry Show, have made the carefully considered decision to postpone the British Dental Conference and Dentistry Show (BDCDS) to May 2022.

Dentology, powered by Henry Schein, successfully debuts

On 29 and 30 January 2021, “Dentology – powered by Henry Schein” set stage on a new era of educational and informative live online events around the digitalisation of dentistry, to be followed by four weeks of access to on-demand digital education.

Henry Schein´s first fully virtual symposium was a wealthy source of content offering comprehensive insights into the fast-changing world of digital dentistry. A renowned selection of 14 international experts delivered cutting-edge educational content on topics ranging from the digital workflow, digital implantology and orthodontics, to the recognition of digital pathology. Answers to questions like how to best start with digital, how to make the most of the intraoral scanner, and how to use digitalisation for customer communication are only few samples of the variety and focus of topics discussed. After the presentations, participants and experts continued the conversation by engaging in live discussions and questions and answer sessions.

Keynote speakers included Prof. Dr. Irena Sailer (Switzerland) and Dr. Simon Chard (UK). In their lectures, they explained the impact that digitalisation has had on dentistry and gave an outlook on the future of digitalisation in dentistry as well as inspiring inputs on possibilities in patient communication with social media. In addition, 12 experts from eight countries shared their extraordinary expertise with the participants. Among them were Wouter Reybrouck (Belgium), Dr. Jacques Vermeulen and Dr. Christian Moussally (France), Dr. Ole Schmitt and Dr. Andreas Kurbad (Germany), Stefano Negrini and Dr. Mauro Fazioni (Italy), Prof. Dr. Guillermo Pradiés and Dr. Ferran Llansana (Spain), Prof. Dr. Daniël Wismeijer (The Netherlands), Dr. Ian Buckle (UK) and Dr. Katya Archambault (USA).

Dentology’s Special Guest was Randi Zuckerberg, daughter of the dentist, Edward Zuckerberg, and former director of market development and spokesperson for Facebook, a company her brother Marc co-founded. She was named as one of the “50 Digital Power Players” by “Hollywood Reporter”. With her lively and inspiring speech with anecdotes from her own career and the resulting incredible successes, she provided informative input on topics such as business optimisation and efficiency in practice.

Final agenda item of the two event days was the highly informative and interesting live panel discussion, led by Dr. Simon Chard – surely one of the highlights of the event. Dr. Chard was joined by Prof. Dr. Markus Blatz, Professor of Restorative Dentistry and Dr. Kyle Stanley, voted among the Top Ten Young Educators in Dentistry by the Seattle Study Club.

In the impressive 3D walkable Dentology world, participants were also able to visit the exhibition area that featured latest innovations from leading dental manufacturers and business partners and provided opportunities for participants to discuss their clinical, digital, and business ambitions with Henry Schein’s local specialist teams in real time so that they got answers questions about how the acquired knowledge can be implemented into the customers individual daily practice and what tailored digital solutions might best fit their future aims.(*)

“A big thank you to all the participants, who joined us at our first Dentology Symposium, to our fantastic speakers as well as to Team Schein for organising this cutting-edge event that underlined Henry Schein’s expertise in digital dentistry and that our customers can Rely on Us,” said Willem Kortland, Vice President of Marketing of Henry Schein’s EMEA Dental Distribution Group. “Based on the positive feedback from the participants, our expert speakers, as well as our specialist team at the exhibition stands, Dentology 2021 kicked off really successfully.”

Dentsply Sirona will not take part in the International Dental Show (IDS) in March 2021

Taking into account all the different factors for its customers and employees and following intensive discussions, Dentsply Sirona has decided the Company will not attend the International Dental Show (IDS), scheduled to be held from March 9th to 13th, 2021 in Cologne, Germany. This also applies to Dentsply Sirona brands VDW, MIS and Zhermack.

Charlotte/Bensheim, July 28th, 2020. Current estimates indicate that the expected restrictions due to the COVID-19 pandemic in March 2021 will almost certainly not allow the proximity and depth of consultation that Dentsply Sirona and its customers know and value.

In particular, this environment would mean that customer meetings, interactions and consultations would not have their usual quality. Dentsply Sirona also believes that travel conditions will result in significantly fewer national and, especially, international visitors attending the IDS. The company puts the safety of its customers and employees first when making these types of decisions.

Walter Petersohn, Chief Commercial Officer at Dentsply Sirona, says, “It was a difficult decision to make, but much of what makes the IDS and its unique dynamics what they are, will not be possible in March 2021 because of the conditions we expect due to COVID-19. We would not be able to provide our customers and visitors with their usual experience at the show at this time. The same applies to the quality that they expect of Dentsply Sirona. We trust that the situation will change in due course, and we already look forward to taking part in the next IDS.”

IDEX 2020 moved to new dates in September

The 17th International Istanbul Dental Equipment and Materials Exhibition (IDEX), originally due to take place in the Spring, has been postponed until 10-13 September at the CNR Expo Center in Istanbul. The decision to go ahead with the show was made by the Pozitif Trade Fairs and DİŞSİAD (Turkish Dental Bussinessmen Association).

Reaching a business volume of 500 million dollars in Turkey, the dental industry will gather professionals from all over the world at IDEX. The exhibition will display products from more than 1.000 domestic and international brands. With 30,000 visitors expected from 80 countries, the exhibition aims to create a trade volume of more than 150 million dollars.

Organised by CNR Holding subsidiary, Pozitif Trade Fairs, in association with DİŞSİAD, the exhibition is known to draw industry professionals from Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Asia, Russia and CIS countries, the Far East, North and South America, and Oceania.   

Companies from Russia, Germany, Italy, the UK, Austria, Hungry, India, the UAE, and the USA will be present as the products of more than 1.000 brands from 14 countries will be showcased. State-of-the-art products, from orthodontics to implants, imaging devices, dental equipment, dental cements, and cad/cam, will be introduced across the 35,000m2 show floor.

In addition to the aisles packed with products from around the world, attendees will also have the chance to explore the industry and its challenges on a global scale via the programme of seminars and workshops on offer. Industry developments will be shared as professional international speakers discuss the dental industry’s latest innovations and share their opinions about the future of the sector.
