EOS Opens Texas Facility

Posted on Wednesday, May 4, 2016

Pflugerville, TX — EOS planned a ribbon cutting ceremony May 4, 2016, to mark the grand opening of its newest US facility in Pflugerville, Texas. The event precedes the celebration of the company’s 27th anniversary this summer.

The primary function of the Pflugerville location is to provide increased service and support for EOS’ growing North America market, which topped $100 million in fiscal year 2015. Among the site’s special offerings are an innovations laboratory (iLab), where EOS application engineers interact directly with customers, a working showroom containing the full range of the company’s additive manufacturing (AM) systems, and an AM Ventures division to help bring start-up ideas to reality.

“The opening of our Pflugerville facility helps us deliver even better and faster service and support to our regional customers,” says Glynn Fletcher, president of EOS North America, Inc. “EOS has a company-wide goal of continually improving systems, materials, and process solutions wherever we operate. Pflugerville’s location near Austin, one of the fastest growing technology hubs in the US, allows us to make connections with some of the most notable technology organizations and schools in the nation and enables a high-level, optimum response to our customers’ needs across multiple time-zones.”

EOS has experienced substantial global growth in recent years—and particularly within the US.

“Our Pflugerville investment is a direct reflection of our ongoing success,” says EOS Founder and CEO Dr. Hans J. Langer. “Additive manufacturing is rapidly becoming a more widely accepted solution to complex manufacturing requirements across a broad spectrum of industries. We’ve recently sold our 2100th system, worldwide. With almost three decades of dedication to AM technology development, our company is committed to upholding the highest quality standards in our field.”

The Pflugerville operation incorporates the following:

·         iLab – Here materials and systems testing will support EOS experts as they directly work with customers and identify tailored solutions that overcome design and manufacturing hurdles for specific end parts.

·         AM Ventures – This entity helps people get their ideas to market using AM. AM Ventures develops the manufacturing side of an idea, while the startup handles marketing and sales. This program is the first of its kind for EOS globally.

·         Working Showroom – Containing all EOS systems—from the smaller EOS M 100 metal system to the larger EOS M 400 system, as well as small and large plastic systems—the showroom provides benchmarking and hands-on training for customers, as well as “AM Experience” tours.

·         Regional System Modifications – Custom modifications to systems or software are performed in-house.

·         Service Hotline and Aftermarket Ordering – This serves as a distribution hub for consumables such as filters and materials.

·         Application Consulting – Experts work directly with potential and existing customers to determine if an application is conducive for AM, helping them identify their end-product goals.

EOS has more than 100 employees in North America, with 30 field service engineers; the company has had a US presence since 2001. Pflugerville is opening with approximately 30 employees, a number that is expected to double within the next two years. EOS Materials, also known as Advanced Laser Materials (ALM), dedicated to the production and blending of polymer powder for both EOS systems and other powder-based AM technologies, will remain in Temple, Texas.

The Novi, Michigan, site will also remain as an important regional technical center for EOS of North America, Inc. Future plans to further expand within the US include the Boston and Northern California regions.

AACD Scientific Session a Hit

Posted on Wednesday, May 4, 2016

MADISON, WI —The 32nd Annual American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry Scientific Session concluded its educational program April 30 at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre. More than 1200 people attended the four days of educational programming, which included 84 speakers, 68 lectures, 35 hands-on workshops, four entertaining and motivating general sessions, and some high-energy social events.

This year’s courses aligned with the conference themes of design, implementation, and realization, and the completely reimagined structure was referred to as the AACD Triple Play. An innovative conference concept, the AACD Triple Play brought some of the biggest names in cosmetic dentistry education to the podium every morning and afternoon to present on the day’s theme sequentially in the same room. Attendees were also able to select from AACD Accreditation courses, hands-on workshops, practice management courses, and more.

This year, the AACD acknowledged four newly Accredited Members and one newly Accredited Fellow. Other exemplary members of the Academy and of the profession were also recognized and honored with Celebration of Excellence Awards, known as the Evy.

Attendees to the conference also enjoyed opportunities to unwind and catch up with friends and colleagues. The social events began Wednesday night with the Welcome Reception at Real Sports Bar and Grill. Then on Thursday night between slap shots, party-goers took in the sparkly sights of NHL championship rings and the Stanley Cup at the Hockey Hall of Fame to raise funds for the AACD Charitable Foundation’s Give Back a Smile program. AACD 2016 concluded with the Celebration of Excellence Gala Reception, which dazzled guests with a red carpet experience and laser show.

AAO Breaks New Ground to Attract Adults

Posted on Tuesday, May 3, 2016

St. Louis – May 3, 2016— A great smile never goes out of style. That’s why the American Association of Orthodontists (AAO) is heading to New York’s Fashion Week this September to throw its first-ever pop-up fashion event, “Your Smile is Your Best Fashion Accessory.”

 “We’ve seen a stunning increase over the past decade in the number of adults who are seeking orthodontic treatment,” says DeWayne B. McCamish, DDS, MS, president of the AAO.  “We created this concept to connect with potential patients in an entirely new way. This one-of-a-kind, interactive event will encourage attendees and the online fashion community to discover the life-changing power of a healthy, beautiful smile, and that it can be achieved, regardless of age, by working with an orthodontist.  We’ve designed this event to reach a national audience from a top-tier venue in the heart of Manhattan. Our guests’ exploration of the latest fashion, beauty tips and health information during the event will be shared by top fashion bloggers nationally in real-time.”

“Your Smile is Your Best Fashion Accessory” will be held from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. on Wednesday, September 7, 2016, at the Shops at Columbus Circle at Time Warner Center in New York. The event, which falls on the eve of New York’s Fashion Week, is free and open to the public and pre-registration is recommended. Light refreshments will be served.

Presenting sponsor Align Technology, Inc., manufacturers of Invisalign? clear aligners, will offer free computer imaging sessions to give participants a glimpse of their post-treatment smile. “We are very excited to be working with the AAO to bring greater awareness of orthodontic treatment and its benefits to prospective patients,” said Raphael Pascaud, Align’s Chief Marketing Officer.  “Invisalign patients and their doctors tell us all the time that having a healthy, beautiful smile is a confidence booster and a great investment in themselves that lasts a lifetime. We believe these messages will resonate with the fashion-forward consumers who attend NYFW and who follow Fashion Week activities online, all around the world.”

To broaden the event’s reach and amplify messaging, the AAO is partnering with InStyle magazine, one of the most popular fashion magazines in the world. In addition to a robust digital, print and social media campaign, the AAO is engaging InStyle’s celebrity style trend expert, Tai Beauchamp, to give style tips and ‘do’s and don’ts’ throughout the evening. Conversely, key fashion influencers will be in attendance interacting with their social media followers.

Retailers from the Center will also participate, showcasing the latest trends in fashion and accessories.

“We can all agree that a healthy, beautiful smile is timeless fashion accessory,” says Dr. McCamish. “We want to help our guests visualize how achieving a healthy, beautiful smile can be life changing. We hope this event inspires our guests to discover how orthodontists can help achieve the confidence and poise that comes with a gorgeous smile.”

Oral Health America Releases State-By-State Analysis of Older Americans’ Oral Health

Posted on Tuesday, May 3, 2016

CHICAGO, May 3 – Oral Health is an important part of overall health and well-being, but there are huge gaps in oral health particularly for older Americans. Because by the year 2030, it is expected that more than 19% of the U.S. population–almost one out of every five Americans–is expected to be 65 years or older, we can make a real difference by opening up a much broader conversation about the complex issues surrounding the oral health of older Americans as well as the goals and responsibilities of communities in providing support and access. 

Oral Health America (OHA) has published a new report examining factors impacting the oral health of older Americans. A State of Decay, Vol. III is a state-by-state report of the oral health of its 65+ population and the success or failure of states to address those needs. It reveals that continued attention is needed to ensure that America’s increasing population of seniors age healthily and independently.

“Access to oral healthcare for older Americans is a matter of social justice, with those living in poverty suffering the most from the lack of publicly funded benefits needed to improve their oral and overall health,” said Dr. Caswell Evans, Associate Dean of Prevention and Public Health Sciences at the University of Illinois at Chicago School of Dentistry and member of Oral Health America's Board of Directors.  

The report serves as a resource for states to address shortfalls in oral health status, dental benefits for low income adults and population-based prevention, all of which impact the oral health of older adults. It proposes concrete steps that can be taken to promote healthy aging and independence for this rapidly growing cohort of America’s population.

•   Because early detection is key to early intervention, we need to support the Older Americans Act Reauthorization of 2016 which covers oral health screenings using health promotion funds

•   Passing the RAISE Family Caregivers Act in the House of Representatives would improve education and training of caregivers on proper oral health maintenance 

•   One of the most critical challenges for seniors is paying for care, thus we need to advocate for financially viable publicly funded dental benefits through Medicaid and Medicare

•   Community Water Fluoridation has been shown to positively impact oral health at a population level, thus we need to sustain implementation efforts

•   To ensure that oral disease is prioritized along with other chronic diseases, we must include specific language to ensure inclusion of provisions for older adults in every state’s Oral Health Plan 

•   Finally, because information can drive policy and funding supports, we need to establish continuous surveillance of older adults’ oral health by requiring states to administer the Basic Screening Survey  

A State of Decay, Vol. III gives a rating of “Poor,” “Fair,” “Good,” or “Excellent” based on state level data analyzing five variables impacting older adult oral health: Edentulism (loss of all teeth), Adult Medicaid Dental Benefits, Community Water Fluoridation, Basic Screening Surveys and State Oral Health Plans.

Two states, Minnesota and North Dakota emerged as models and are profiled for best practices in the report. Both earned a Composite Score of “Excellent” with a 100% and 96% rating respectively.

OHA ranked each of the 50 states based on the overall health status among the older adult population as measured by an overall state score referred to as a Composite Score. In order, the 10 states with the highest Composite Scores are Minnesota, North Dakota, Connecticut, Wisconsin, Rhode Island, Indiana, Florida, Virginia, Colorado and Michigan. The states with the lowest Composite Scores are Utah, Oklahoma, Texas, New Jersey, Montana, Mississippi, Wyoming, Hawaii, and Tennessee with Alabama’s score being the least favorable. The final evaluations for all 50 states revealed that 76% of states earned a Composite Score of 50% or less out of 100 with 22% earning a Composite Score of “Fair” and 54% earning a Composite Score of “Poor.” Ten states received a Composite Score of “Good.”

 

The top findings of this report that elicit further scrutiny and action are: 

•   Tooth loss remains a signal of suboptimal oral health. Eight states had strikingly high rates of edentulism, with West Virginia notably having an older adult population that is 33.6% edentate

•   Fluoridated water presents an important opportunity for prevention. Five states (10%) still have 60% or more residents living in communities unprotected by fluoridated water. Hawaii (89.2%) and New Jersey (85.4%) have the highest rates of residents living without fluoridated water

•   Improving oral health coverage would improve outcomes Sixteen percent of states (8 states) provide either no dental benefit or emergency coverage only through adult Medicaid dental benefits. Four states (8%) cover the maximum possible dental services in Medicaid

•   We need strategic planning to address the oral health needs of older adults. Eighty-four percent (42 states) lack a State Oral Health Plan that mentions older adults, with 14 states lacking any type of State Oral Health Plan

•   We need more data about the oral health condition of older adults. Forty-six percent (23 states) have never completed a Basic Screening Survey, a surveillance of the oral health conditions of seniors in community and long-term-care settings of older adults and have no plan to do so 

“While many Americans face obstacles when it comes to oral health, older adults are at an increased risk due to challenges with accessing care,” said Dr. Dushanka Kleinman, a dentist and associate dean for research and academic affairs at the University of Maryland, School of Public Health. “We have to develop solutions at the practice and policy level to address the barriers older Americans experience.”
