makeover directly on the patient: IvoSmile
During the latest International Dental Show (IDS) in
Cologne, Germany, as a dental aesthetics enthusiast,
I myself surveyed the market for materials, devices
and appliances for dental aesthetics. While visiting
the Ivoclar Vivadent AG stand, I met Dr. Andreea
Czimermann, our representative who was kind

was immediately captured by the communication
and counseling tool for dental professionals based
on "augmented reality" called IvoSmile. This digital
technology facilitates communication between
dentists, patients and dental technicians and makes
the design process simpler and easier to understand.

the patients a preview of the aesthetic change

in the patient's own mouth in a short period of

photo or video mode. Professionals are offered
the opportunity to present patients on the iPad or
iPhone with an aesthetic dental make-up, with no
