35th W&H Innovation Day in Latin America
The 35th of the successful series of W&H Innovation Days in Latin America took place on November 22nd, 2017 in the Chilean capital, Santiago. Originally started by Area Manager Oliver Goetzendorff, this modern exhibition concept is a magnet for dentists, surgeons and implantologists in the region since 2011. “We lay strong emphasis on making this an exclusive event with an ideal combination of theory and practice in the applications of our products. We work closely with accredited dentists and surgeons. Our visitors are shown their clinical methods and how to use our W&H products efficiently,” says Oliver Goetzendorff. “The high rate of repeat attendance at our events clearly shows that we are offering important added value that can be applied to the participants daily work.”
The 35th W&H Innovation Day with about 60 participants was another very successful event. Invited by the Austrian commercial attaché Wolfgang Köstinger, the event took place at the Austrian embassy, the “Residencia del Agregado Comercial de la Embajada de Austria”. The main focus of the event was on the field of oral surgery and implantology supported by W&H partner Dental Laval Ltda. Well-known speakers such as Dr. Philippe Pertuiset Rencoret, Dr. Julio Pertuiset Gatica and Dr. Manuel Pavez Herrera from Chile presented detailed information on products, techniques and clinical applications. An important part of the proceedings focused on the efficient use of the Piezomed piezo surgical device in combination with the latest Implantmed generation. The applications were demonstrated with selected indications. Oliver Goetzendorff discussed the advantages of the new electric motor and its use in the field of dental preparations. Dr. Abelardo Baez also showed a video demonstrating the clinical applications.
Participants had ample opportunity for additional questions and discussions with the expert presenters and for networking during a final discussion and over cocktails in the residence.
