Video Transcription:
Hi. I'm Simon Campion, president and CEO of Dentsply Sirona. Welcome to DS World 2024 here in Las Vegas, where we have just witnessed the arrival of another game changing breakthrough, revolutionary technology in digital and connected dentistry called Primescan 2.
These events are extraordinarily critical for us to connect with our customers, and to provide world class education. We have over 100 separate courses here this week, and [we’re also here] to launch the groundbreaking technology that Dentsply Sirona has become renowned for over many years. In addition to these great educational events—clinical educational events—we also have Dr. Vin Gupta here this week sharing his opinion on what the future of healthcare is going to look like.
Primescan 2, as I noted, is a revolutionary, game-changing breakthrough. It is going to transform how dentists practice dentistry, both clinically and from a process efficiency perspective, in their practices, and as a result, we feel it's going to increase their profitability significantly in their practices.
These events are an awesome opportunity, in front of a captive audience, to launch these groundbreaking products, and we would expect that in the years to come, we will have more significant launches at DS Worlds around the world. Connecting with our customers around the world is a cornerstone of our strategy, and we do that in many ways; not only through our dedicated sales representatives around the world and also through our products, but also through the clinical education programs that we provide around the world, which includes the DS Worlds here in Las Vegas, in Spain, in Italy, in Tokyo, [and] in Brazil.
But we also have a lot of other events. We held the World Implant Symposium in Miami in the earlier part of this year, and we've just held the MIS Implant Symposium in Europe as well. Between both events, there were over 1000 attendees, with world class educators showcasing the technology and workflows that we have to offer, and also showcasing the clinical data that our products are backed up by. For example, we have over 1400 publications on our implant portfolio. Over 70,000 implants have been using those, and today, here at DS world, I spoke about the PrimeTaper registry, which is over 1500 implants and a 99% implant survival rate. So, we are not only committed to education and to bringing new technology to the marketplace, but also providing real world data that supports the safety and efficacy of our technology.
