New Miss Singapore’s Smile Radiates Above the Rest
July 28, 2011 Singapore
Miss Valerie Lim, Age 25, was crowned Ms. Singapore Universe by Tania Lim, the 2010 pageant winner, at the Shangri-La Hotel last week in Singapore. All of the finalists in the Miss Singapore contest had their teeth professionally whitened using Opalescence by Drs. Jerry and Ronnie at the Orchards Scotts Dental office.
Ms. Valerie Lim, a Behavior Therapist, will represent Singapore in Miss Universe 2011, the International Pageant at Sao Paulo, Brazil in September 2011. Ms. Lim is known for her beauty blog, DWEAM.com. The judges recognized her for her confidence on stage which may have been most obviously displayed with a beautiful smile that helped her radiate through all of the elimination rounds.
Drs. Jerry and Ronnie evaluated all of the contestants prior to the crowning ceremony. They each received a custom-fit bleaching tray and an Opalescence Take-Home teeth whitening kit. For more information on Opalescence tooth whitening, please contact Jane Fonda at fondaco@fondaco.sg. -
Ultradent Launches VALO Cordless
July 6, 2011 South Jordan, UT
Today, Ultradent announced the launch of VALO Cordless, another expertly engineered development in LED curing light technology. VALO Cordless maintains the powerfully efficient broadband technology offered by the multiple award winning VALO, and adds a battery-operated, cordless wand for mobility.
VALO Cordless features custom, multi-wavelength Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) to produce high intensity light at 395-480 nm--capable of polymerizing all light-cured dental materials. This intensity can penetrate porcelain and is capable of curing underlying resin cements similar to a quality halogen light. VALO Cordless comes with VALO rechargeable batteries and a battery charger suitable for power outlets from 100 to 240 volts. The standard lithium iron phosphate rechargeable batteries are safe, inexpensive, and optimized for power and longevity.
The new handpiece is designed to rest in a standard dental unit bracket, or can be custom mounted using the bracket included in the kit. It offers consistent curing intensity and output in a durable, aerospace aluminum body with a Teflon coating and a sleek, ergonomic design.

Ultradent Introduces Fluoride Varnish with Mess-Free Delivery and its new SoftEZ™ tip
July 1, 2011 South Jordan, UT
Ultradent just released Flor-Opal Varnish White, a fluoride varnish with an innovative syringe and tip delivery system for fast, simple and mess-free application. The new system comes complete with Ultradent’s SoftEZ™ tip for a paintbrush-like application that applies an even coat of varnish from start to finish.
Flor-Opal Varnish White features a unique syringe-to-syringe mixing system ensuring a consistent, even dose of fluoride is applied to each tooth. Individual syringes are packaged with a Luer Lock cap that is replaced with an empty syringe prior to application. Unlike traditional fluoride varnishes that use a “well” and brush system, the mixing process between syringes ensures a consistent application of fluoride with less mess and product waste.
Flor-Opal Varnish White is delivered with Ultradent’s new SoftEZ tip, a tip with a unibody design that avoids fiber shedding and tip clogging. The bristles are integrated within the body of the tip providing a platform for an even coat of varnish. The syringe is also flexible, facilitating reach to difficult-to-access areas.
The new Flor-Opal Varnish White is available in 40 packs of Bubblegum and Mint flavors. For more information, please contact Ultradent’s customer service at 1-800-552-5212.
