This is a short podcast (6:30 minutes) recorded at the California Dental Association show in Anaheim, California. May 4-6, 2007. I had high hopes for a longer podcast with interviews, but mobile recording turned out to be a bit more difficult than I first thought. With the ambient noise in the convention hall, the interviews I did, were washed out. I will be doing some research on mobile recording and hope to have a better go of it at the next show.

Show Notes:

As I mentioned in previous posts, I came across a few new products at the CDA that I thought I would share with you.

GC America
G Cem – Self Adhesive Resin Luting Cement.
MI Paste Plus – A Tooth treatment delivering Calcium, Phosphate and Now Fluoride
(No information was available on their website regarding these 2 new products.)

3M ESPE
Protemp Crown See our previous post I got to see this in person and it looks very interesting, the ship date has been pushed back to June 1, 2007.

Summit Dental Equipment

I took a look a Summit’s new line of chairs/units/lights while at the show. In years past, Summit had a reputation for sub-par quality dental equipment. Let me tell you that Summit has done a 180 and has turned out some very nice quality dental equipment at a very fair price. They have improved the manufacturing process, and assured me that the quality and reliability of their dental equipment has improved. Summit will fill the void of low cost, high quality dental equipment, left when LSM left the market.
