“Sometimes I feel so uninspired.” – Traffic
now is not one of those “sometimes.” i have just returned from the cerecdoctors.com mentor ids trip.
It was a great trip and a wonderful time. IDS is the world’s largest dental meeting. It’s held in 11 or so buildings that are comprised of two
to three floors each. It has been jokingly said that the smoking area of this meeting is as large as the Chicago Midwinter Meeting.

Just a Few Things Going On
And, the amount of new technology
released at this meeting can be a little over-
whelming; because, of course, all manu-
facturers have the latest and greatest that
a dentist MUST HAVE! Sometimes the
show can resemble a shoot-out at a fantasy
factory. It was fun looking at everything
that could be viewed in a matter of hours,
and wondering howmuch of the “latest and
greatest” would even be around in two years
for the next IDS show.
One of the highlights for me, personally,
was the opportunity to go to the Univer-
sity of Zurich and meet Drs. Mörmann
and Mehl. These two innovators have been
instrumental in creating and making CEREC technology what it is
today. And, they are continuallymaking it better. We were fortunate
to have a special lecture from each of them.
In this issue of the magazine, we continue to bring you what that
technology can do for your patients and your office. We continue
doing that with the Emergency + Esthetics that we talked about in
the previous issue. We do that while we feature Dr. Farhad Bolt-
chi’s article about how the CEREC technology can be a benefit in
a specialty practice. We also have an article from Dr. Dan Poticny
extolling the virtues of conserving natural tooth structure by
using the correct materials with the appropriate tooth prepara-
tion for single restorations. From the complex to the everyday,
Drs. Mörmann, Fleming andMehl on the cerecdoctors.comMentor IDS trip.
