EuroPerio Platinum Sponsor, Acteon, presented lectures on Thursday and Saturday.
On Thursday, Amit Patel and Donna Schembri explored the concept of ‘Seeing the Unseen’ - Utilising Fluorescent Technology for Optimal Periodontal Care.
The theme from Acteon and the two speakers was clear: improve patient understanding to empower self-care and utilise technology to see better and treat faster.
Cutting edge products mentioned as examples for the effective removal of plaque included the Newtron P5xs ultrasonic generator, the Air n Go easy airpolisher and Soprocare - which utilises state of the art photonics technologies.
It was a similar story from the Ziv Mazor lecture on Minimal Invasive Surgery Utilizing Piezo Surgical Device - Optimizing Biological and Functional Outcome in the Posterior Maxilla.
Using products such as Piezotome and Sinus Lift Kit as examples, he articulated that use of innovative technology minimises complications, reduces treatment and healing time, and ultimately enhances function.
The focus must be on improving patient understanding and encouraging them to look after themselves by giving them the tools and the knowledge they need: together we can improve patient care.
