LEIPZIG, Germany: With the recent launch of the Dental Tribune Nordic Edition, Dental Tribune International (DTI) has added a new print publication to its global portfolio. With four issues per year, DT Nordic will serve as the primary source of dentistry-related news and industry updates for approximately 25,000 dental professionals in Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden.

The new edition was created to provide comprehensive coverage of news and events from the four countries in addition to relevant international content. Developed as a pan-regional title, the newspaper will be published in English and distributed at the major industry events in the region, including the Scandinavian dental trade fair SCANDEFA in Copenhagen and the Swedental congress and exhibition in Stockholm.

The print edition will be complemented by a dedicated regional website at www.dental-tribune.com, also in English, through which the DTI editorial team will provide the latest news from northern Europe online.

The Nordic countries have been forerunners of a number of paradigm shifts in dentistry throughout history. In 2008, for example, Sweden, Norway and Denmark were the first countries in the world to ban dental amalgam, thereby setting a trend that has gained momentum recently with the signing of the Minamata Convention on Mercury, which aims to eradicate the industrial use of mercury-containing products on a global scale.

Moreover, some important innovations originated in the far north of Europe, including the air turbine handpiece and the concept of dental implantology, which was born with the breakthrough discovery of the possibility of integrating bone tissue with an artificial material like titanium by the recently deceased University of Gothenburg researcher Per-Ingvar Brånemark.

An e-paper version of the Dental Tribune Nordic Edition can be accessed free of charge via the DTI online print archive.
