On June 5th-10th the spectacular MGM Grand in Las Vegas hosted the Nobel Biocare World Congress. Nobel Biocare is the grand daddy of implants, as we know them, and date back forty years in this field. This conference was billed to be the most important event in the history of esthetic and implant dentistry and Dr. Kenneth Hilsen, from Ridgewood Dental Associates, concurs that it lived up to its claims.
Over 10,000 Dentists and related professionals came to see the latest innovations in esthetic and implant dentistry. There were lectures, live surgeries, and panel discussions by experts in all aspects of restorative and cosmetic dentistry. Surgeries and clinical demonstrations were beamed by satellite from Australia, Switzerland, Portugal, Belgium, and Italy in addition from within the United States. Headphones with real time translations were given in nine languages. People were seen walking from lecture to exhibitor with headphones on so that they would not miss anything.
Dr. Hilsen came back with more knowledge on the Procera system, teeth in an hour
for patients without teeth, and other complex prosthetic reconstructions. All who attended the Conference came away believing that anything is possible with the exciting new technologies in dentistry.
