24 January 2013 – At the 35^th International Dental Show (IDS) in Cologne (12 – 16 March 2013), Hu-Friedy, leading manufacturer of dental instruments will present numerous product innovations for the fields of periodontology, diagnostic, composite restoration, dental surgery, orthodontics and instrumental management solutions. For Hu-Friedy, it is a matter of course that the comfort of the treating dental professional and the patient as well as higher precision and working efficiency are the focus of all instrument solutions.

At the IDS, Hu-Friedy will present its entire product range, including numerous innovative instrument solutions. The International Dental Show (IDS), which takes place every two years, is the world’s leading trade fair for the dental sector, as the products presented reflect the entire global dental market. Decision-makers from the dental profession, the dental technician trade, the dental retail trade and the dental industry, as well as appliances and technologies attend it for experiencing the latest developments.

Periodontal disease: Efficient prophylaxis, initial diagnosis & curettage
In periodontal disease prohylaxis, the removal of tartar plays an important role and Hu-Friedy offers the treating dental professional the Resin 8 Colours product line with 80 scaler models. Eight different fluorescent colors assign the instruments to their respective field of application in the oral cavity, thus increasing work efficiency. Thanks to Hu-Friedy‘s EverEdge® technology, a revolutionary stainless steel alloy, the working tips do not become dull as fast as with conventional instruments. Even the treating professional’s signs of fatigue are prevented. The ergonomically-shaped plastic handles of the scalers facilitate comfortable working due to high rotational control and secure hold.

If periodontal disease is suspected, Hu-Friedy’s easy to manipulate Colorvue® PerioScreen™ probe can be used for quick initial diagnosis. By means of easily understandable green and red color codings, the differential diagnostic examination can determine pocket depth in advance and therefore the possible presence of periodontal disease. In addition, this coding system is also useful for informing patients.

Hu-Friedy also offers numerous curettage instruments for existing periodontal disease. In collaboration with renowned dentists Dr. Pierpaolo Cortellini and Dr. Antonella Labriola, the BioGent curette series was especially developed for gingival biotype periodontal disease therapy. The finest working tips plus various curvatures and angles allow a working method tailored to the respective biotype while protecting tissue, thereby ensuring higher patient comfort.

Composite restoration: Aesthetics through precision
Optimal aesthetic results through precise composite restoration: Hu-Friedy achieves them with its new CompoSculp product line developed in collaboration with Swiss restorative dentistry specialist Dr. Didier Dietschi. The products include a wide range of spatulas ideally tailored for the purpose. Polished, corrosion-resistant stainless steel tips prevent the adhesion of filling material so the treating professional can place it exactly where it belongs.

Surgery: Precision tools for preserving the buccal bone plate 
If the aim is to preserve the buccal bone plate in atraumatic extractions, high-performance precision tools are necessary and Hu-Friedy has developed seven luxation hybrid instruments for this purpose. They combine the features of root elevators and bone stretchers, and thanks to their thin, exactly bent tips, they alow extremely precise work. Apart from them, the new Farabeuf retractor – a universally usable gum retraction instrument – was introduced.
