How does it work? exocad application specialist and dental technician Patricia Moreno Gil demonstrates the new workflow and shares some practical tips for users. The exocad wiki page Bar Module Split Bar - exocad explains every workflow step and parameter in detail. In general, exocad offers many resources for learning: the wiki page, our YouTube channel and personalized training.

Ivoclar Somerset awarded as the only company in the USA to receive the International Vocational Training Award

Ivoclar Somerset is proud to be the first and only company in the United States to receive the International Vocational Training Award certification from Great Place To Work Switzerland. This certification recognizes the Liechtenstein-based dental company’s excellence in cross-border vocational training. The Somerset, New Jersey site plays a key role in this achievement: since summer 2025, Ivoclar Somerset has welcomed its first apprentices, creating new career pathways for young people in the region. Promoting young talent is a global priority for Ivoclar, a company with more than 100 years of history headquartered in Liechtenstein, and this commitment is especially strong in Somerset, New Jersey. While vocational education has long been well established across Europe, similar models remain limited in many parts of the United States. Ivoclar Somerset recognized this opportunity and, in collaboration with the Head of Vocational Training in Liechtenstein and a local community college, developed a program that integrates hands-on company training with academic education. The establishment of this program was supported by the U.S. Department of Labor and the U.S. Embassy in Bern, Switzerland. And this is only the beginning. Ivoclar is currently evaluating additional apprenticeship opportunities at its U.S. locations, including Somerset, New Jersey, and Amherst, New York.

First-ever Dental Dedicated MRI Validated in Clinical Trial and Cleared by FDA for Advanced Soft Tissue Diagnostics

Dentsply Sirona and Siemens Healthineers are pleased to announce that the first ever dental dedicated MRI[1] (ddMRI) system – MAGNETOM Free.Max Dental Edition – has received FDA clearance in the United States. This milestone follows the completion of a clinical trial[2] validating the system’s significant potential across multiple dental specialties. The trial highlighted this first of its kind technology’s applicability in endodontics, periodontics, TMJ, tooth extraction, and orthodontics, offering non ionizing imaging capabilities that can enhance diagnosis and treatment planning. Clinical highlights from the trial demonstrated MAGNETOM Free.Max Dental Edition’s ability to differentiate active inflammation from healthy and scar tissue, enable non-invasive assessment of tooth pulp vitality to support chairside testing and observations and enables the visualization of teeth and their position in relation to neighboring teeth as well as the nerves.
