At the 38th International Dental Show (IDS), Cologne,
Germany, over the five days (12-16 March, 2019), a total
exposure area of 170,000 m² was attended by 2,327
companies from 64 countries whose stands were visited
by over 160,000 visitors from 166 countries.
The trade and the users mainly focused on innovative
products and technologies, systems for improving digital
workflows, additive production, new prophylaxis formulas
for and filling materials, intraoral scanners, implant
designs as well as flexible workflows for management of
the laboratory.

As an enthusiast of periodontal surgery, we prospered the
market for additive manufacturers. At the UK company
stand, EthOss Regeneration Ltd, I re-introduced the
inventor of EthOss, Dr. Peter Fairbairn, and his team.
EthOss®, a mixture of completely synthetic material, is
a step forward in guided bone regeneration (GBR) and
Bone Grafting technology. Personal experience over 2
years, the excellent results obtained and the use by oral
implantologists around the world of this completely
synthetic material, make me recommend you with all the
warmth.

implant manufacturers, we have seen the presence of the            EthOss® (Ethoss Regeneration Ltd., Silsden, BD20 0DL, UK)
