3rd International CAMLOG Congress, June 10th–12th, 2010

"From science to innovations and clinical advances"
Steady, sustained growth even in economically difficult times and on the leading edge of technology: CAMLOG and more than 1,200 guests of the congress directed by Prof Wilfried Wagner, University of Mainz, had more than a few reasons to celebrate. This also included that today, CAMLOG ranks among the world's five leading companies in the scientific documentation of treatment success.

The 3rd International CAMLOG Congress has set lasting standards by the quality of the contributions and a balanced proportion of practical relevance and scientific underpinning. Impressive presentations on the topics of digital implant dentistry, soft-tissue integration, prosthetics, 3-D planning and augmentation left nothing to be desired from a clinical perspective.
Other topics included the pros and cons of platform switching, aspects of the biological width, conical vs. Tube-in-Tube™ connections, the impact of implant positioning on hard- and soft-tissue development, CAD/CAM solutions, screw fixation vs. cementation, abutment materials and more.
Right at the beginning of the congress, Prof Jürgen Becker, University of Düsseldorf, the newly elected president of the CAMLOG Foundation for 4 years, who took over from the now honorary president of the Foundation, Prof Rolf Ewers, University of Vienna, emphasized the great importance of the CAMLOG Foundation in the continued advancement of implant dentistry.

With 60 scientific publications in 2009 alone, CAMLOG has also been successful in becoming one the the leading "evidence-based" implant providers.
In the end, a particular highlight of the congress was the outstanding panel of experts with remarkable solutions complemented by constructive contributions from the audience.
But the CAMLOG Congress 2010 in Stuttgart had even more to offer than just professional tidbits. Already before the actual congress, many participants attended the pre-program with practical and theoretical workshops or a visit to the Porsche or Mercedes-Benz museums. At the alternative tour of the newly expanded state-of-the-art CAMLOG production plant in Wimsheim, more inquisitive participants were counted than in the Porsche Museum in Stuttgart.
The CAMLOG "Night of the Stars" party was a unforgettable experience where the guests were all received on a red carpet like in Hollywood – including screaming fans and a glittering sparkling wine reception. Encouraged by the rousing Tina Turner impressionist Dana Smith and an equally convincing Robbie Williams show, the international CAMLOG community celebrated into the next morning.
In his closing words, CAMLOG’s CEO Dr Michael Peetz described the 3rd International CAMLOG Congress in Stuttgart as an outstanding and well-used opportunity to maintain networks and to further develop the team concept.
And it is Dr. Peetz's firm conviction that the CAMLOG Group is well on its way to becoming an international leader in implant dentistry with its user-friendly, high-precision and thoroughly documented dental implant system.
