In this lecture, Michele Temperani will share step-by-step insights into a structured approach that enhances communication between clinicians and technicians, streamlines processes, and delivers natural-looking, long-lasting outcomes.

Electric toothbrushes come in two main types: oscillating (round head) and sonic.

Research shows sonic brushes are often superior.

They clean more gently while reaching areas your bristles can’t. The high-frequency vibrations create fluid dynamics around the bristles, allowing removal of food particles and bacteria up to 2mm beyond the bristles.

Sonic brushes like the Oclean range combine gentle precision with effective plaque removal, helping you achieve cleaner teeth and healthier gums, even in hard-to-reach spots.

Ask your dental professional which brush is best for your oral health routine. 🦷

Meet ADS 2026 Speaker: Dr. Galip Gürel

Topic: Aesthetic Dentistry 4.0

In today’s dentistry, no matter how complex a case may be, patients will only be satisfied if the final aesthetic outcome meets their expectations. That’s why clear communication of the final smile design, even before treatment planning, is essential.

In this lecture, Dr. Gürel will explore how to achieve minimally invasive preparations through analog and digital techniques, the importance of preserving enamel for long-term success, and how new digital workflows, powered by dental robotics are transforming smile design into a precise “all-in-one” concept.

What looked like a routine replacement revealed much more beneath the surface:

✅ Old, poorly bonded filling removed
✅ Hidden rim fractures and cracks exposed
✅ Deep margins requiring precise management

Using the Garrison DME Reel and Strata-G system, margins were handled with accuracy and the tooth was carefully rebuilt, layer by layer - restoring both function and integrity.

Case by Dr. Joshua Lee 👏
