7 we are 7 CURRENT PRESS RELEASE bredent GmbH & Co. KG brecam - Physiological high-performance plastics for digital processing bredent provides high-performance plastics for digital processing under the brecam consumables product range. The benefits provided by the CAD workflow are twofold: The framework and veneers can be manufactured in just one single operation. In the finishing stages, the user focuses on the aesthetic requirements of the customer. Available for the majority of CAM systems. With the selection of physiological high-performance plastics available in the brecam range, any condition can be treated with the most suitable material - whether this involves a temporary or permanent restoration: For the manufacture of physiological permanent restorations: brecam.biohpp The bionic age: Surpassed only by nature itself The physiological properties of this framework material are surpassed only by nature itself. BioHPP allows patients to forget that they are wearing a restoration, as it is just as elastic, stable and light as bone, with the same thermal conductivity. Available in colours dentine shade 1 and 2. brecam.hipc The universal champion Whether used as a milled veneer or as a fully anatomical monolithic restoration, this material offers you the most elegant solution for a number of conditions and for all framework materials - including BioHPP. For the manufacture of temporary restorations: brecam.resin brecam.resin is a thermoplastic PMMA which makes it possible to manufacture safe, biocompatible, aesthetic, dimensionally stable and colour-stable long-term temporary restorations. brecam.multicom brecam.multicom increases the wearing time of the temporary restoration to two years and offers an even greater polished, polychromatic aesthetic, thanks to the coloured multi-layer design. brecam.wax The alternative to conventional manual modelling With brecam.wax, the benefits of the digital world can transferred to conventional technology. The material is extremely well-suited to the digital manufacture of fully anatomical and reduced frameworks, inlays, onlays, implant work including large-span bridges for integration in cast metal and ceramic press technology. brecam.cast dimensionally stable, safe implementation The blue-coloured brecam.cast is an exceptionally dimensionally stable and temperature-resistant PMMA that can be burnt out. Dental frameworks and structures can be manufactured economically and quickly with durable dimensional stability, for the purpose of fitting checks, and can be subsequently implemented in metal casting technology. brecam.model The precise alternative This modelling material used in the automotive industry makes it possible to quickly manufacture any number of custom-fit, reproducible models and structures for dental technology. The material is dimensionally stable and exceptionally resistant. Stable structures do not always have to be made using metal. brecam opens the door to new approaches when manufacturing durable dental prostheses in the laboratory, by means of soft machining, therefore allowing the possibility of a 24-hour service: milling is carried out overnight, then customised adaptation takes place according to the patient s wish/at the dentist s request. The brecam range has fundamentally been designed for open systems and is now also available for ZirkonZahn, AmannGirrbach and Wieland systems. brecam products will also be available via the webshop from March All names marked with or are protected brands and/or company names or third-party rights holders. bredent GmbH & Co.KG Weissenhorner Str Senden Germany T: (+49) / F: (+49) / info@bredent.com bredent medical GmbH & Co.KG Weissenhorner Str Senden Germany T: (+49) / F: (+49) / info-medical@bredent.com

9 we are 9 CURRENT PRESS RELEASE bredent GmbH & Co. KG BioHPP elegance prefab: the abutment for the CAD/CAM workflow bredent brings bionics into implant prosthetics. Aesthetic and physiological treatments with the BioHPP elegance hybrid abutments. New: for digital production in the CAD/CAM workflow: BioHPP elegance prefab. As the exclusive supplier of the prefabricated abutment - the BioHPP elegance prefab - bredent allows the digital application of a classic tried and trusted technique. The BioHPP elegance prefab allows the production of customised hybrid abutments using standard CAD/CAM procedures. Integrated into the CAD/CAM workflow Following (oral) scanning the individual treatment is planned in the CAD system and the corresponding order is sent to the laboratory, or produced chairside. The individual abutment has excellent scanning properties, so that the order for the corresponding crown (regardless of whether this is in visio. lign, HIPC, zirconium, ceramic, metal or lithium disilicate) can be conveniently integrated into the same workflow. The BioHPP is pressed onto the titanium base without adhesive as with the prefabricated or conventionally modelled BioHPP elegance hybrid abutment. A homogeneous, gap-free and adhesive-free bond is formed between the titanium and BioHPP, which can be sterilised and boasting outstanding mechanical properties. The Off-Peak features (shock absorption), significantly reduces force application in the implant compared to titanium, zirconium or ceramics. The abutment is therefore also suitable for immediate treatments. The surface properties of the BioHPP elegance hybrid abutment allow optimised gingival management. The white shade of BioHPP ensures that there is no dark shadowing. The finishing process is also a simple, convenient and smooth process, as the BioHPP elegance hybrid abutment can be easily finished - even intraorally - in the same way as dentine. Added value stays in the practice / practice laboratory: The properties of BioHPP mean that it can be produced in-house with soft machining techniques. Short treatment times: Immediate treatment with the final abutment, one-time abutments and chairside temporary treatment in one sitting. Aesthetic and physiological treatments with the BioHPP elegance hybrid abutments. 1. BioHPP elegance titanium base & BioHPP: conventionally modelled abutment using the press moulding technique in the for2press system - for a range of systems. 2. BioHPP elegance abutment: prefabricated abutment in various forms and angulations - for a range of systems. bredent GmbH & Co.KG Weissenhorner Str Senden Germany T: (+49) / F: (+49) / info@bredent.com bredent medical GmbH & Co.KG Weissenhorner Str Senden Germany T: (+49) / F: (+49) / info-medical@bredent.com

11 we are 11 CURRENT PRESS RELEASE bredent GmbH & Co. KG BioHPP elegance hybrid abutments: individual comfortable resilient. Surpassed by nature only. With its physiological BioHPP elegance hybrid abutments, bredent introduces bionics into implant prosthetics. Whether individually modelled, milled or preformed, BioHPP elegance hybrid abutments pave the way for exceptionally aesthetic and physiological restorations. Now available in three processing forms for various implant systems. The BioHPP elegance titanium base is the foundation of the BioHPP elegance hybrid abutment regardless of its processing form. Using the over-pressing technology in the for2press system, the BioHPP is pressed onto the titanium base without adhesive. Homogeneous, gap- and adhesive-free bonding takes place between the titanium base and BioHPP, which is sterilisable and offers the best possible mechanical properties. The Off-Peak property (shock absorption) offers significantly more cushioning during the load transfer to the implant than titanium, zirconium or ceramic. The abutment is also suitable for immediate restoration. The BioHPP elegance hybrid abutment facilitates optimal gingiva management due to its surface structure. BioHPP s white colouring ensures that no dark shadows show through. Even reworking is effortless, as the BioHPP elegance hybrid abutments can be reworked like dentine, entirely comfortably and without any problems, even intraorally. For processing, bredent offers BioHPP elegance hybrid abutments in three variants: 1. As a conventionally modelled abutment: The BioHPP abutment is individually modelled and then pressed over the BioHPP elegance titanium base. Available for 10 different implant systems. 2. As a preformed abutment: The preformed BioHPP elegance abutment is available in various sizes and can be inserted directly and individually adjusted. 3. As a BioHPP elegance prefab hybrid abutment for digital processing (CAD/CAM): The BioHPP elegance prefab is specially inserted for manufacturing the restoration in the common CAD/CAM workflows, the implementation of which has been developed collaboratively by bredent and the system providers. bredent GmbH & Co.KG Weissenhorner Str Senden Germany T: (+49) / F: (+49) / info@bredent.com bredent medical GmbH & Co.KG Weissenhorner Str Senden Germany T: (+49) / F: (+49) / info-medical@bredent.com

13 we are 13 CURRENT PRESS RELEASE bredent GmbH & Co. KG BioHPP & for2press 2 The system update: individual physiological abutments - new colour - new device. The inventors of BioHPP, a pioneering gold standard among physiological framework materials, based on PEEK, have extended the popular and trusted system with new options: laboratories can now offer individual physiological abutments for a total of 12 implant systems. BioHPP elegance titanium bases are conveniently moulded with the for2press 2 device, without adhesive or gaps. BioHPP as a material is available in two shades - white (dentine shade 1) and tooth colour (dentine shade 2). The device is now available in version 2 and as well as technical enhancement now offers the option of using a large 10 litre muffle for secondary and tertiary constructions in the model moulding procedure. The advantages of BioHPP: Variety - wide range of indications from an individual abutment to large tertiary constructions for permanent or removable, high quality prosthetic treatments on implants or natural teeth. Unrivalled - near-natural (off-peak) shock absorption prevents chipping, CMD and unnatural abrasion with the antagonist, thereby supporting the osteointegration of implants. Superior Patients value the natural bite and mouthfeel and the metal-free biocompatibility. The basic material has been proven over the last 30 years in human implantology. BioHPP is the most stable non-metallic material in dentistry and unlike ceramic does not lose inherent strength. The material BioHPP BioHPP is a ceramic reinforced high performance polymer, and thus the torsion-resistant physiological alternative to rigid framework materials. The elasticity of BioHPP reduces chewing force peaks and over the long-term distributes forces across the implant to the bone. This allows immediate implant treatment, promoting optimum osteointegration. An upgrade kit for the for2press 2 device is available for existing users of the for2press system. bredent GmbH & Co.KG Weissenhorner Str Senden Germany T: (+49) / F: (+49) / info@bredent.com bredent medical GmbH & Co.KG Weissenhorner Str Senden Germany T: (+49) / F: (+49) / info-medical@bredent.com

15 we are 15 CURRENT PRESS RELEASE bredent GmbH & Co. KG Unbeatable in all disciplines New designs for the visio.lign system The visio.lign veneer system combines the aesthetic benefits of ceramics with the stability of modern composites and the elasticity of polymers. Components that are tailored to one another offer the best conditions for the perfect prosthetic implant solution. The visio.lign veneer system stands for stability and safety which results in durable, discolouration-resistant and exceptionally robust prosthetic restorations. Now available in additional new designs. The visio.lign system - natural aesthetic, durability and individuality for physiological restorations, particularly in the field of prosthetic implants. The system consists of five important groups: neo.lign Full teeth with a natural appearance for functionally correct positioning novo.lign Functionally appropriate veneers that can be combined with the neo.lign series crea.lign Freestyle layering system with excellent properties in terms of aesthetics and stability visio.paint Staining system of the highest standard. Unbeatable value for money. Primer and Bonder to manufacture the chemical adhesive bonding of all system components on all commercially-available dentistry framework materials. New designs for neo.lign & novo.lign The visio.lign system has now been supplemented with a universal, masculine and feminine front tooth maxilla design, as well as a narrow mandible front tooth shape. Therefore, a total selection of 15 anterior and 12 posterior shapes are available for the novo.lign veneers and neo.lign full teeth of the same shape. The new designs are characterised by a more pronounced texture, as well as more comprehensive approximal transitions, and allow for optimal interdental space sealing. The new designs have been optimised for fine anatomical structures in particular, such as CAD/CAM manufacture with zirconium dioxide. Patient previews and reproducibility The aesthetic try-in with novo.lign veneers shows patients the results beforehand. Having determined the final positioning to achieve the best appearance and function, an optimum framework design is simple and easy to implement using a silicone key. The high-strength novo.lign veneers can be adhered to all framework materials used in dental technology with the help of the combo.lign fixation material and the corresponding primer/bonder, and customised using crea. lign veneer material. visio.lign is particularly recommended for frameworks made from BioHPP. Physiological long-term restoration Comparable to natural teeth in terms of abrasion values, the visio.lign system offers a soft bite with a chewing force peak load that is reduced by up to 50% - a definite advantage for implant-supported dental prostheses. Thanks to its stability, visio.lign makes it possible to manufacture durable, discolouration-resistant, physiological and exceptionally resilient prosthetic restorations with a natural aesthetic. bredent GmbH & Co.KG Weissenhorner Str Senden Germany T: (+49) / F: (+49) / info@bredent.com bredent medical GmbH & Co.KG Weissenhorner Str Senden Germany T: (+49) / F: (+49) / info-medical@bredent.com

17 we are 17 CURRENT PRESS RELEASE bredent GmbH & Co. KG high.lign - the new generation of plastic. Definitely the best material bredent markets its newly developed chemoplastic plastic processing system for implant-supported and removal restorations under the umbrella brand high.lign. The new generation of plastics features two product lines: uni.lign hot and self-curing prosthetic plastics & top.lign professional crown and bridge plastics. uni.lign high performance prosthetic plastics bredent will be presenting a universal plastic as a speed variant for casting and compression-moulding techniques at the IDS What is special about this product configuration is the high biological tolerance (low residual monomer), colour stability and the stable mechanical properties performing at the level of a high-impact hot polymerisate, particularly for implant-supporting restorations. The system only needs 50% of the elements compared to other systems, as one powder is used for 2 processing techniques. uni.lign plastics achieve invisible transitions thanks to full cross-linking, regardless of the production and finishing variants or of the hard lining or of later extensions to the constructions bearing the prosthesis and implant. The end-to-end colour concept allows, for example, total prostheses to be repaired with the uni.lign speed repair plastic without a discernable difference in shade. The uni.lign range has now been extended by two further colours rose-deep pink opaque and rose-deep pink veined and is now available in a total of 8 shades as well as transparent. top.lign professional crown and bridge plastics The new generation of plastics has also found its way into crown and bridge plastics, thus replacing the tried and tested breformance/top.lign breformance, which has to date only been designed for purely temporary use. top.lign professional now allows tooth coloured constructions for permanent use to be created in the form of the crown or bridge material. This innovation is achieved without laboratories having to investment in new plastic finishing systems. Its use in particular for immediate load bridges highlights the excellent clinical stability of this development, with twice the strength of conventional plastic treatments for crowns and bridges. The tooth shades have been designed to match the visio.lign sytsem. Use of the visio.lign veneers also produces colour stable and durable permanent dental restorations using casting techniques. The preferred indication field is removable dental restorations and implant-supporting prostheses. top. lign professional is available from the date of the IDS 2015 in all shades in the classic A-D system, in the Bleach Shade BL3, Transparent and in Cervical and Incisal shades. bredent GmbH & Co.KG Weissenhorner Str Senden Germany T: (+49) / F: (+49) / info@bredent.com bredent medical GmbH & Co.KG Weissenhorner Str Senden Germany T: (+49) / F: (+49) / info-medical@bredent.com

21 we are 21 CURRENT PRESS RELEASE bredent medical GmbH & Co. KG Excelling in immediate restoration In recent years, the innovative immediate restoration therapies from bredent medical have really proven themselves among dental specialists and dental technicians. This innovation has now paid off; according to the findings of the Millennium Research Group, bredent medical can now be considered a market leader in the field of immediate restoration. To remain a leader in innovation, the company is constantly developing and optimising its therapies. At the IDS 2015, bredent medical s main focus will be immediate restoration. The visitors will gain a thorough understanding of these particular therapies. One of these in particular is the SKY fast & fixed therapy, which is specially suited to the needs of elderly persons with potentially edentulous jaws. In many cases, patients are able to receive a fixed temporary bridge immediately after implantation without any problems. bredent has also developed a suitable solution for younger patients with a single tooth gap. Using BioHPP SKY elegance abutments, single tooth gaps can be closed immediately. Thanks to the material properties of the high performance polymer BioHPP, the implant is protected from overloading in the healing phase, which means that no further abutment changes are necessary, and thus the soft tissue is not subjected to repeated trauma. BioHPP SKY elegance abutments can be used as either temporary or definitive abutments. As a crown abutment, the tooth gap can even be immediately definitively restored. bredent medical is forward thinking and future-orientated. With many ideas and projects in the pipe-line, the company is one step ahead of its future competition. This is mainly due to the fact that bredent medical is the only company which doesn t solely offer individual components; it provides complete and comprehensive therapies which encompass the planing stage, optimised implants for immediate loading and their associated abutments, and dental prosthetic solutions. WE ARE ONE is the new slogan of the bredent group, which restrengthens the collaborative aspect of both bredent and bredent medical- together they form a manufacturer for implantology and prosthodontics as well as a partnership between dentists and dental technicians. bredent GmbH & Co.KG Weissenhorner Str Senden Germany T: (+49) / F: (+49) / info@bredent.com bredent medical GmbH & Co.KG Weissenhorner Str Senden Germany T: (+49) / F: (+49) / info-medical@bredent.com

23 we are 23 CURRENT PRESS RELEASE bredent medical GmbH & Co. KG Photodynamic therapy controls bacterial infections in the oral cavity The HELBO method: scientifically proven For many years the use of photodynamic therapy (PDT) in combatting bacterial infections of the oral cavity has been an innovative topic in dentistry. Meanwhile, a whole range of product concepts are being marketed under this general term and an increasing number of PDT providers are flooding the market. The best clinically tested photodynamic method among these is the market-leading HELBO therapy which has been scientifically investigated and documented in various capacities for more than twelve years. Its usage has been documented in periodontology, periimplantitis therapy, endontics, and bone and soft tissue disinfection in surgical procedures. There are numerous Photodynamic (PDT) therapies on the market. The increasing response from dentists is that it has become difficult to differentiate between every available product and to gain a thorough understanding of all these concepts which offer varying dyes and light sources. This is why concrete clinical data confirming the effectiveness of each available treatment is becoming increasingly important. The experts agree that individual results certainly can t be applied to every system, due to a large amount of variation between product concepts and components. The leader on the market in terms of scientific research is the HELBO therapy. Over 70 publications, including international publications of randomised clinical trials from across the globe, give supporting evidence for this therapy. Renowned scientists have already published the results of these trials. The impressive quality of these scientific studies has already left a lasting impression. The working group of Prof. Dr. Dr. Sculean was awarded the 1st Prize for Graduate Research in European Federation of Periodontology 2013 by the EFP in 2014 for the article Anti-infective therapy of peri-implantitis with adjunctive local drug delivery or photodynamic therapy: six month outcomes of a prospective randomized clinical trial, published in Clinical Oral Implants Research 2013 Jan;24(1): The HELBO therapy reduces infection-causing pathogenic bacteria by over 99 %, completely without side effects. In this therapy, the micro-organisms are first stained (HELBO Blue Photosensitizer) and then exposed with the HELBO TheraLite Laser, a non-thermally acting laser. The laser light forms highly reactive singlet oxygen which leads to lipid oxidation of the bacteria s membrane, rapidly destroying the disease-causing bacteria. The method is pain-free, without side effects and, in many cases, eliminates the need for invasive measures which patients will be less willing to accept. Following evaluation of the scientific data, DKV, one of the largest German health insurers, issued a recommendation for the reimbursement of photodynamic treatment. This is certainly a milestone in the application of this therapy for the treatment of biofilm-associated oral infections. The basic prerequisite for a reimbursement is that the therapy used complies with specific requirements. For example, it is mandatory that all materials used in the treatment are sterile. The HELBO therapy method has met these criteria for a long period of time and has gained full approval in conjunction with the evidence supporting its effectiveness. Information on HELBO therapy is available at: bredent GmbH & Co.KG Weissenhorner Str Senden Germany T: (+49) / F: (+49) / info@bredent.com bredent medical GmbH & Co.KG Weissenhorner Str Senden Germany T: (+49) / F: (+49) / info-medical@bredent.com

24 24 flow.sil sealing keeps out bacteria. Magnified image of a microgap Excess product is easy to remove.! Bacterial contamination without flow.sil

25 we are 25 CURRENT PRESS RELEASE bredent GmbH & Co. KG flow.sil - no place for bacteria With flow.sil from bredent Bacteria do not stand a chance bacteria do not stand a chance to thrive between the abutment and the prosthetic reconstruction or screw. The disinfectant effect of flow.sil protects cavities from bacteria and from a build-up of plaque and bacterial infestation. The silicone sealant can be simply applied to hard-to-reach areas with the dual component cartridge. Its rapid hardening means very short waiting times for the patient. Any residues can be conveniently removed without a scalpel. The ready-to-use flow.sil is applied to the cleaned inside of the crown and the screw channel. The construction is then placed on the abutment and screwed into place, and any excess material is pressed out. The hardened flow.sil can then simply be removed with an instrument, tearing off exactly at the edge and preventing bacterial invasion. Easy to remove Clinical use is initially planned for 12 months. At each recall flow.sil is simply pulled off. The permanent elasticity of flow. sil ensures it clean removal - simple, convenient and without residues. Biocompatibility The added thymol disinfects the material itself and surrounding areas and prevents the formation of a biofilm. flow.sil is biologically tolerated and is purely plant-based. Other benefits with flow.sil: reduced peri-implantitis reduced halitosis reduced focus of inflammation in application area reduced contamination in the cavities neatly seals - without softeners bredent GmbH & Co.KG Weissenhorner Str Senden Germany T: (+49) / F: (+49) / info@bredent.com bredent medical GmbH & Co.KG Weissenhorner Str Senden Germany T: (+49) / F: (+49) / info-medical@bredent.com
