Children receiving free dental care at the clinic organized by Dentsply Sirona and TeamSmile

Children attending the clinic received a range of free dental services, including x-rays, cleanings, fillings, sealants, and extractions, with a total estimated value of almost $26,000. In addition to dental care and free oral health education, the young patients had the opportunity to meet Homer the Dragon, the official mascot of the Charlotte Knights baseball team, along with other TeamSmile mascots. The event also featured face painting to create a fun and memorable dental treatment experience for the children.

Andrea Frohning, SVP and Chief Human Resources Officer at Dentsply Sirona, expressed her satisfaction with the event’s impact and emphasized the importance of the long-term partnership with TeamSmile. “We are delighted to see another great turnout for this free dental clinic,” Frohning said. “Through our long-term partnership with TeamSmile, we are able to help improve access to oral care for those in need, enhance health outcomes for children in our local community, and foster the understanding that a healthy mouth is essential for overall health.”

Dentsply Sirona’s Commitment to 25 Million Healthy Smiles by 2025: Expanding National Partnerships and Community Support

Increasing access to oral health and achieving 25 million healthy smiles by 2025 are core commitments of Dentsply Sirona’s mission and sustainability program, “BEYOND: Taking Action for a Brighter World.” In line with this, the company increased its support for TeamSmile this year and became one of their national partners, providing financial support, donating equipment and consumables, and offering on-the-ground volunteer support at events.

“We are grateful to continue our partnership with Dentsply Sirona to serve the children of the Charlotte community, while also having the chance to collaborate with the Charlotte Knights,” said John McCarthy, executive director at TeamSmile. “It was so touching to see the children receive services and leave smiling even brighter.”

The success of the free dental clinic in Charlotte highlights Dentsply Sirona’s dedication to improving access to oral health and ensuring the well-being of children in need. By partnering with TeamSmile and engaging with local communities, the company is making significant strides toward their goal of 25 million healthy smiles by 2025.

This Year’s Highlights

All funds raised through participant registrations and voluntary donations will be used by Dentaid, The Dental Charity, to help children and adults with limited access to dental care maintain their oral health.

“It was amazing to see once again how people came together and went above and beyond, joining our Miles for Smiles walk and giving time and money to help others. We are delighted by the amount we were able to raise together, and we would like to thank everyone who participated and supported this worthy cause,” said Christof Bissdorf, GVP, General Manager UKINOR and EMEA Connected Technology at Dentsply Sirona. “With the donations raised, we will be able to make a difference in the lives of many in the UK and Ireland who would otherwise lack sufficient dental care.”

The UK initiative, Miles for Smiles, contributes to Dentsply Sirona’s commitment to helping people around the world achieve access to oral health.

GCCC judges, students and Dentsply Sirona team at Dentsply Sirona Site in Constance (Germany).

The cases submitted were challenging anterior and posterior restorations that were implemented either directly or indirectly in the CAD/CAM workflow. Only Dentsply Sirona products were used, for example CEREC Tessera, Calibra Ceram and Prime&Bond. The finalists of the Global Clinical Case Contest received awards and an invitation to Constance.

High-caliber final with deserving award winners

1st place – Winning case: fractured upper right central incisor

The winner was N Movina Wu from the National Cheng Kung University, China Taiwan. She presented the case of a fractured upper right central incisor. After confirming the tooth’s vitality, a minimally invasive direct composite restoration was chosen. A wax-up cast aided alignment, and the restoration involved shade matching with Neo Spectra composite, bevel preparation, and layered composite application. Finishing and polishing were completed with the Enhance® Finishing system and Prisma Gloss materials, achieving a natural-looking result.

2nd place – Diastema closure post orthognathic and orthodontic treatment

Second place was awarded to Qinyang Li from the Sichuan University, China, with the case of a patient who needed diastema closure after completing orthognathic and orthodontic treatment. Direct composite restoration was used, guided by digital design for precise reshaping. The process involved etching, bonding with Prime&Bond Universal Adhesive, and using Dentsply Sirona ceram·x composites. Finishing and polishing were done with the Enhance® system, resulting in successful diastema closure and improved anterior aesthetics.

3rd place – Aesthetics procedure of upper anterior teeth post orthodontics treatment

Third place was received by Mayar Mostafa from the Alexandria University, Egypt, for a patient case in which a 23-year-old female sought treatment for poor aesthetics of her upper anterior teeth after orthodontics, showing decalcification and staining. Composite veneers were chosen for their minimal invasiveness. Following digital smile analysis and a 3D resin model, the procedure included rubber dam isolation, selective enamel etching with 37% phosphoric acid, and layering Neo Spectra ST composites. Finishing and polishing were done with the Enhance system. This resulted in a natural-looking, glossy finish in a single visit, providing the patient with a new smile.

Impressive commitment and skills showcased at GCCC

The jury praised the high standard of the cases submitted. “The restorations presented were produced by the students with great personal commitment and technical skill,” jury member Dr. Britta Hahn summed up. “This passion was evident in all the participants’ work and was impressive. All the finalists outstandingly showed what possibilities exist with modern materials and workflows to provide patients with a beautiful smile.”

The finalists appreciated the live event in Constance, to which they were invited by Dentsply Sirona together with their tutors, as an opportunity to demonstrate their skills in advanced dental restorations, compete with fellow students, and present to a panel of experts. “It was a privilege to be part of a competition with such talented young dentists from all over the world. The award confirms my ambition to foster dental health and provide patients with state-of-the-art treatments,” said N Movina Wu. “I felt truly inspired by listening to the other delegates’ cases and learning from them and the judges’ feedback. I can only recommend young dentists to take part in a competition like the GCCC to share your experience, learn and be inspired for your professional career.”

Dentsply Sirona supports young scientists

“The Global Clinical Case Contest is an important international dental contest for the next generation of dentists – both for the students themselves and for the company,” emphasized Dr. Rainer Seemann, Vice President Clinical Affairs and Workflows at Dentsply Sirona. “We want to support future dentists to advance confidently by helping them provide their patients with the best possible care right from the start. For this reason, Dentsply Sirona promotes innovative training programs with state-of-the-art technology through extensive cooperation with universities around the world.”

The Dentsply Sirona Global Clinical Case Contest has been taking place since 2004/2005 academic year. The competition is aimed at dental students enrolled in a college or university at the time of entering. Participants document their case in text and images and are supported by a tutor from their university.

Applications for the GCCC 2024-2025, the 20th anniversary of this contest, can be submitted now. More information about Dentsply Sirona’s Global Clinical Case Contest can be found here: www.dentsplysirona.com/gccc.

Today, thousands of labs globally already use DS Core. Dentsply Sirona is now introducing new functionalities for labs on DS Core, enabling labs to collaborate in an excellent way with the dental practices they serve.

Gain an overview with the dashboard, collaborate with other labs, take dentists with you on your digital journey

Order management has received a major boost with the enhanced dashboard. Orders and media are listed under client and patient names for quick and easy access to the relevant information.

Another new feature is the ability to outsource jobs to other labs or even DS Core Create, while retaining all the original job details and files. This is useful when working with production partners or managing temporary staff bottlenecks.

“For me, DS Core is an efficiency gain because I can find everything, I’m looking for in one place. From intraoral scans and X-rays to my orders and correspondence,” says Devaughn Fraser, Director of Highland Dental Lab in Canada. “The potential is vast: with this digital step forward, practices and labs are now digital neighbors – no longer limited by distance, time or file types. All information and communication is centralized – no need to check seemingly endless portals, emails, text messages and file transfer services. All information now cohabitates happily under one roof.”

With DS Core Light*, Dentsply Sirona is also launching a new subscription option that provides two important additional functions. It provides users with 1 TB of storage space and enables labs to store order and design files. Another very special tool: Labs can take their more conventional partner dentists with them on their digital journey. Digitized models of physical impressions and design proposals can be shared back to a dentist via DS Core, even if the dentist is not yet a DS Core user. Once dentists start using intraoral scanners to take impressions, they can send their orders via the DS Core platform that they are already familiar with.

Consistently turn DS Core into an enabler 

Since its launch, DS Core has inspired many users around the world. As an open ordering and collaboration solution, it connects dentists and dental technicians in a broad network for efficient collaboration. DS Core is open for numerous data formats (dxd, .stl, .ply and .obj as well as .dcm x-ray images), enabling nearly every dentist to send data to the lab, regardless of the digital devices they use. The data input can be easily viewed by the laboratory partner via a web browser—without the need to install special software so dental technicians are free to choose which lab software they use to design or fabricate their applications.

“Dentistry is a team sport, and dental labs are an essential part of the dental care team. That’s why we are continuously developing DS Core to enable the dental care team to advance with confidence and play together effectively. The latest updates are specifically made for dental labs” said Max Milz, Group Vice President Connected Technology Solutions at Dentsply Sirona. “With DS Core, dental labs can efficiently work together with practices using digital impressions, designs and even X-ray data, supported by real-time chat functionalities. DS Core is a single channel for exchanging many types of data securely, which is a huge improvement compared to the usual fragmented communication channels used today and a significant step towards a new era of connected dentistry.”

According to Andreas Frank, Executive Vice President, Chief Business Officer at Dentsply Sirona: “At Dentsply Sirona, we partner with dental professionals to advance our shared vision of transforming dentistry. We are committed to enhancing patient outcomes and supporting practice success. DS Core positions our customers to advance with confidence on all fronts.”

One of the standout sessions at the conference was the “Monday Morning Patient,” moderated by Malene Hallund and Dean Lyndon Cooper, the two scientific chairs of the Summit. This session featured an expert panel including Mischa Krebs, Alberto Monje, Joe Schmidt, and Stijn Vervaeke. Together, they discussed various cases from initial assessment through planning and treatment, encouraging collaborative problem solving and peer-to-peer learning. Attendees, both on stage and in the audience, actively participated by voting on their preferred approaches to these challenging “Monday morning cases.”

“This event was an exceptional platform for learning and networking,” said Dr. Mark Montana, prosthodontist from Tempe, AZ. “The presentations and workshops were highly informative and educational events like these are valuable as dentistry is rapidly evolving and being impacted by digital technology.”

Unveiling of Enhanced Product Range of Regenerative Solutions

Participants were introduced to the newly enhanced Symbios Allograft regenerative solutions, consisting of a diverse range of products for different clinical applications, including Granules bone grafts, Putty bone grafts, and Acellular Dermal Matrix. Experts from Dentsply Sirona were on hand in the exhibition area to answer questions. This enhanced range was introduced for the first time at the event in Miami and is now available in the USA and Canada.

Stig Hansson Award Presentation

The Stig Hansson Award recognizes pioneering innovation and research within implant dentistry. It honors the legacy of Stig Hansson († 2023), a former employee of Dentsply Sirona and a pioneer in the development of modern dental implants. He not only invented the Astra Tech Implant System but also brought the principles of biomechanics to implant design, resulting in TioBlast, the first moderately rough implant surface, and MicroThread, retention elements on the implant neck.

Q: Please provide an overview of your career in dentistry.

A: After graduating from Case Western in 2010, I returned to Cincinnati, initially as an associate, before acquiring my fee-for-service practice in 2017. It’s fully digitalized, including PrimeScan (Dentsply Sirona).

SureSmile Aligners deliver predictable results and happy patients.

Q: When and why did you begin working with SureSmile Clear Aligners (Dentsply Sirona)?

A: I began using SureSmile Aligners in 2020 due to increasing malocclusion and restorative cases. I trusted Dentsply Sirona and colleagues’ positive experiences with SureSmile, so I was confident moving into their clear aligner workflow. The knowledge they brought to the system gave me confidence.

Q: How do you identify/diagnose a patient malocclusion? What steps do you take to educate patients on the condition and its potential impact on oral health?

A: We co-diagnose with our patients using Primescan scans or photos. We review and discuss oral health impacts of crowding, teeth with fractures/recession, and airway and sleep apnea issues.

Q: What role does scanning patients play in helping you do this?

A: Scanning all patients, both new and established, aids in discussing what a patient may not like about his or her smile and facilitates a co-diagnosis.

Q: How are hygiene and prevention affected in your patients who use SureSmile Clear Aligners?

A: In my experience, both completed and in-process SureSmile patients are very invested in keeping their new smiles healthy, striving to keep on top of their oral hygiene, and benefiting from easier cleaning with straightened teeth.

SureSmile Aligners provide outstanding patient value with the Complete Case.

Q: How can SureSmile Clear Aligners provide a better experience for both dentists and patients?

A: In my experience, SureSmile offers predictable treatment with fewer refinements and attachments. In addition, straight-trim line aligners allow for fewer attachments, which patients appreciate, and more predictable movements, which lead to less refinements. Being able to predict treatment outcomes more precisely allowed me to become more confident offering ortho in my practice.

Q: How have SureSmile Clear Aligners impacted the predictability of your patients’ treatment outcomes?

A: My continuing experience with SureSmile enhances the predictability of treatment outcomes. Even when I started with more straightforward relapse cases, I found that the amount of time predicted was close to the actual treatment time.

Q: Do you believe the trim lines and treatment planning approach of SureSmile Clear Aligners result in fewer attachments and refinements? Why is that, and how does that benefit your patients and practice?

A: In my opinion, straight trim lines reduce attachments that may stain or irritate and also may require fewer refinements. I believe predictable outcomes of SureSmile are due to their treatment planning approach, combining synergistic movements and separating out antagonist movements during treatment planning that allow for more predictable movements and can decrease treatment time.

Q: How does the open platform integration of SureSmile Clear Aligners make it easy for dentists to switch from another aligner brand regardless of the type of intraoral scanner in their practices?

A: SureSmile is a completely open platform—if you can export an STL, you can be a Sure-Smile provider, regardless of intraoral scanner. This amazing digital workflow is open to everyone.

Q: How does the SureSmile Complete Case enhance the value for patients seeking orthodontic treatments?

A: The Complete Case includes 3 years of unlimited refinements plus the SureSmile VPro High-Frequency Device, which may provide added comfort and accelerate anterior teeth movement. Also, the patient receives SureSmile whitening near case completion. In my experience, this enhances patient value and compliance.

Q: How has using the online education offerings on SureSmileU and DS Academy enhanced your professional development and patient care?

A: They are both so valuable. SureSmile U and DS Academy provide valuable education for professional development from basic to more advanced content.

Q: Is there anything else you would like to share with Dentistry Today readers?

A: Switching to SureSmile, for me, has been transformative, offering significant ROI and a supportive community.

Treatment planning has never been easier with support from the SureSmile Digital Lab and software that works with most intraoral scanners, including PrimeScan.

Regarding the Digital Lab, Dr. Ponzio said, “A real person is reviewing the treatment plan—it’s human-to-human interaction, not just software.”

Doctors may feel that refinements are just part of supplying clear aligner treatment, but with 3 out of 4 SureSmile patients not needing refinements, SureSmile Clear Aligners provide the predictable results doctors want and patients expect.

“It’s a great system; generally, we see things track really well. We see a lot fewer refinements with SureSmile® than I have with other systems. The way the technology is designed, in the actual aligners, we see fewer attachments and quicker treatment times,” Dr. Ponzio added.

SureSmile Aligners also provide outstanding patient value with the Complete Case option, which includes not only aligners at a flat-rate price but also supplies faster, brighter smiles by including the SureSmile Whitening Kit and the SureSmile VPro High-Frequency Device.*
