Editorial: BDIZ EDI and legal action
Dr Stefan Liepe, Managing Director, BDIZ EDI
These days, BDIZ EDI is waiting for a letter from the German Federal Ministry of Health. On behalf of the BDIZ EDI, Prof. Thomas Ratajczak, our legal counsel, has requested a statement on the inequality of treatment inherent in the German medical and dental fee regulations. In his five-page letter, he asks how it is possible that the value of a fee point according to the German Standard Schedule of Fees for Dentists (GOZ) has remained unchanged for 65 (sixtyfive!) years. “After this immense period of time, there is no way to justify a situation in which dentists (and physicians) are treated so unfairly as the Federal Ministry of Health has treated them for decades, compared to other liberal professions—veterinarians being a good example”, Ratajczak writes...

Treatment of a patient with severe bruxism, loss of vertical dimension, tooth wear and fracture of dental implants—Multidisciplinary integration of odontology and sleep unit
Dr Eduardo Anitua, DDS, MD, PhD, Spain
Bruxism can be defined as a repetitive masticatory activity in which teeth are clenched and/or grinded. It is accompanied by other symptoms such as headache, facial and muscular tension in the peri-oral area as well as in the head and neck and sometimes pain in the temporomandibular joint (TMJ).1,2 It was first described in medical literature in 1907 by Maria Pietkiewicz1,2 and was related to sleep in the first clinical approach. However later it has been shown that in some patients this habit also persists during the day, in phases of concentration or in moments of stress during daily activity.2–4 ...

Soft-tissue thickening—natural revascularisation with NovoMatrix®
Andreas van Orten DDS, M.Sc., M.Sc.
The presence or creation of an adequate peri-implant soft-tissue cuff appears to have a decisive influence on both the osseous and soft-tissue volume dimensions, as well as on the superstructure’s ability to integrate inconspicuously into the peri-implant environment and establish inflammation-free conditions in the long term.67 At the present time, there is no universal consensus regarding the need for the presence of keratinised mucosa around implants or the exact volume of soft tissue to prevent peri-implant diseases as effectively as possible. However, there is circumstantial evidence that soft-tissue augmentation has a long-term positive impact on peri-implant health.29

Additionally, the patented production pro- cess, in which all surfacemachining steps are completed before sintering, creates a high endosteal surface roughness (Ra 5,7 μm) that is essential for fast and predictable osseointegration...
