W&H<br />

No Implantology Without Periodontology<br />

Periodontitis is a chronic disease which<br />

significantly increases the incidence<br />

of biological complications in implant<br />

placement with a risk of implant loss.<br />

Increased implant success with<br />

NIWOP<br />

With “No Implantology Without<br />

Periodontology” (NIWOP), W&H provides<br />

a holistic workflow that allows the best<br />

possible treatment for patients. Pretreatment,<br />

implantation, follow-up<br />

treatment.<br />

W&H for every treatment step<br />

W&H is the only manufacturer who<br />

provides products for every single NIWOP<br />

treatment step.<br />

The functionalities of Implantmed are<br />

perfectly adapted to the requirements of<br />

implantologists when inserting implants.<br />

In addition, the W&H Osstell ISQ module<br />

provides information on the correct time<br />

for loading an implant. With Piezomed,<br />

along with Implantmed, bones may be<br />

treated gently and effectively.<br />

Presently, the new Proxeo Ultra Piezo Scaler is<br />

certifiably safe for patients with pacemakers,<br />

and its unique quick chucking system allows<br />

super simple changing of instruments with<br />

just one instead of six revolutions previously.<br />

The Piezo Scaler Tigon+ is easy and<br />

comfortable to use. Treatment with warm<br />

fluid minimises irritation to sensitive teeth<br />

and increases patient compliance.<br />

The Piezo scaler tip range is perfectly<br />

adapted to the various requirements of<br />

periodontical treatment. With the new<br />

Proxeo Aura air polishing handpiece,<br />

pockets up to 3 mm in depth around teeth<br />

and implants can be treated effectively<br />

and with minimal invasion by using the<br />

setting “perio”. The optionally available<br />

perio spray head also allows treatment<br />

of pockets deeper than 3 mm. The new<br />

Proxeo TWIST LatchShort’s working height is<br />

4 mm, lower than the standard latch systems.<br />

The advantage for users<br />

Evaluations by scientific publications<br />

have shown that a treatment according<br />

to the NIWOP workflow can contribute to<br />

a significant increase in the success of<br />

the implant. ■<br />

while the 3D result is visualised in real<br />

time from different angles. The advantage<br />

is clear: highly predictable esthetic and<br />

functional results.<br />

Further highlights of the new Matera<br />
