100 years ago, the Association of the German Dental Industry (VDDI) organized its first dental show. Now, the show that became the world’s leading dental trade fair is just about to take place for the 40^th time – and Kuraray Noritake Dental Inc. is going to be part of it. At the company’s booth in Hall 11.3 (Stand E010), visitors are invited to discover new opportunities related to countless innovative products and their benefits – by chatting with the warm-hearted and knowledgeable team or by watching one of the lectures and hands-on demonstrations given by numerous internationally renowned experts.

Among the products worth a closer look are universal excellence solutions. These universally applicable, highly intuitive materials may be used to streamline clinical workflows by reducing the number of required components and work steps. Prominent examples are a universal composite with very few universal shades, a universal adhesive suitable for every etching technique and a universal resin cement working as a single-component solution even on silica-based ceramics.

Dental practitioners with a particular interest in prosthodontics should stop at the desk focusing on indirect restorative workflows. Here, they will find the PANAVIA™ family of resin cements and its three popular members, which are able to cover virtually every need. Moreover, CAD/CAM blocks for chairside processing and KATANA™ Cleaner, a cleaning solution providing for optimal bonding conditions on every surface will be presented here.

The bread and butter of many dental offices is placing direct restorations. However, the patient- and situation-specific demands may vary widely and may require very different types of materials – even within the class of composites. That is why Kuraray Noritake Dental offers various types of restoratives – all with excellent mechanical properties and innovative technologies such as Light Diffusion. They are part of the CLEARFIL MAJESTY™ series, showcased at the booth together with the well-known and researched CLEARFIL adhesives.

Minimally invasive restoration designs and excellent aesthetic despite a high degree of automation have found their way into dental technology. The materials required to realize these patient-centred concepts are found at a dedicated counter of the Kuraray Noritake booth. New in the portfolio: Esthetic Colorant that enables dental technicians to create characteristic shade effects on pre-sintered KATANA™ Zirconia!

A special highlight for dentists and dental technicians will be the lectures and hands-on demonstrations hosted by internationally renowned speakers. They will take place from Wednesday, March 15 to Saturday, March 18, 2023, at the Kuraray Noritake booth. The full programme and additional information about what to expect from Kuraray Noritake Dental in Cologne is available online at www.kuraraynoritake.eu. For those who are unable to attend in person, the presentations will also be broadcasted online.
