International Conference Addresses 3M Incognito System
and Clinical Applications
More than 150 orthodontists from 25 countries attended the 2017 Incognito
Appliance System International User Meeting in Paris this October.
Representing five continents, 13 experts in lingual treatment shared and
discussed the Incognito system's benefits. A fully customized, invisible fixed
orthodontic appliance system, the system features robot-bent archwires and lowprofile appliances that deliver efficient and effective treatment outcomes designed
to optimize patient comfort.
For nearly 10 years, 3M has hosted international lingual treatment user
meetings to encourage educational activities about theoretical applications and to
share practical technique recommendations that can help make the system work
well in the practice.
Since its introduction in 2009, more than 140,000 patients have been treated
successfully with the 3M Incognito Appliance System.

ToothShower Reaches Kickstarter Goal in First 28 Hours
ToothShower, an oral care solution for the shower created by a dental hygienist, launched its first Kickstarter campaign on Oct. 17. The
company met its $25,000 goal in the first 28 hours and raised more than $82,000.
Using water from the shower, ToothShower cleans 100 percent of teeth surfaces, as compared with 60 percent with average brushing. The
product works especially well for braces to pinpoint spots that a toothbrush can't reach. Along with a base that attaches to the shower wall,
there are three attachments: a dual-headed toothbrush, an irrigating tip and a gum massager. The dual-headed toothbrush hits the front, back
and sides of teeth, and the irrigating tip flushes water between teeth. The gum massager works with seven jets of water to stimulate important
blood flow in the gums, which is a huge part of preventing, and even healing, gum disease.
