Editorial

Serving the Dentally Underserved A Catherine Wilson, Editor

merican Dental Association (ADA) President Dr. Ronald Tankersley recently testified before an Institute of Medicine Committee on Oral Health Access to Services, outlining the ADA’s efforts to address ways to improve access for ‘underserved populations’. Dr. Tankersley also took the committee to task for its decision to exclude private practice dentists from two panels it is convening at the behest of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services to study oral health care delivery and access. Private practice dentists represent almost 92 percent of all professionally active dentists in the US, Dr. Tankersley said, and their input is crucial to addressing the oral health care access issue. “I urge the committee again to reconsider its decisions to conduct its business behind closed doors and exclude the private practice community from representation. The latter is tantamount to forming a panel on air traffic safety and excluding pilots.” In the US, Health Professional Shortage Areas (HPSAs) may be designated as having a shortage of primary medical care, dental or mental health providers. They may be urban or rural, population groups or medical or other public facilities. As of Q3, 2009, there were: 4,230 Dental HPSAs with 49 million people living in them. It would take 9,642 practitioners to meet their need for dental providers (a population to practitioner ratio of 3,000:1).

Underserved Populations in Canada

A number of diverse populations are identified as potentially underserved by the Canadian health system. These populations include Aboriginal people, official language minorities, those of alternative sexual orientations (gay, lesbian, bisexual, two-spirited, transgendered and transsexual) immigrants, refugees, ethnically and/or racially

www.oralhealthjournal.com

diverse populations, persons with disabilities, the homeless, sex trade workers, and low-income segments of the population. These categories of underservice are not exclusive. Individuals may belong to more than one underserved population and face additional access difficulties related to socio-economic status, gender, or residence in an underserved region. In the autumn 2008 edition of the University of Toronto Magazine, writer John Lorinc wrote a memorable line: “Canada’s Universal Health-Care System stops, for a series of complicated and unpalatable reasons, at the gum line...” Should Canadians have universal dental care built around a government insurance system? No, say you, the CDA and the ADA. “Private dental benefits work. Benefits should be administered by independent companies, selected in the open market. Experience in other countries has shown that a single-payer system would stifle access, innovation and reduce the quality of patient care. Universal dental coverage mandates will not solve the access to care problem. Many dental diseases and conditions are preventable with patient compliance and are inexpensive in relation to cost of treatment, therefore developing federal and state government programs that address not only funding but also non-economic barriers to care are necessary. The great majority of Americans already have access to dental care, and millions can afford care without having dental benefits. The government can use tax policy to encourage small employers and individuals to purchase dental benefit plans in the private sector or develop cooperative purchasing alliances for the segment of the population with privately-funded care.”1 All I’ll say is health care is a fundamental right of all.

ADA Committee on the New Dentist Hosts 24th New Dentist Conference Chicago, IL—Surf’s up in San Diego and so are opportunities for continuing education for new dentists. Distinguished speakers are slated to discuss oral health issues as well as clinical and practice issues at the American Dental Association (ADA) 24th New Dentist Conference at the Catamaran Resort Hotel and Spa in San Diego, June 24-26. Dentists are invited to join the ADA Committee on the New Dentist for a weekend of networking, continuing education and camaraderie at a conference that caters to the unique needs of new dentists-dentists who have been out of dental school less than ten years. Each clinical, professional issue and practice management course is hand-selected by the ADA’s Committee on the New Dentist. Topics range from the science of dentistry such as endodontics and pediatric oral health to the business of dentistry such as using social media, ergonomics for the dental office and recession proof strategies. In addition, attendees will have the opportunity to participate in a new full-day of pre-conference programming devoted to leadership development. The ADA 24th New Dentist Conference is presented by the ADA Committee on the New Dentist and funded by ADA Insurance Plans, American Dental Political Action Committee, California Dental Association, DENTSPLY Tulsa Dental Specialties, Benco Dental, GlaxoSmithKline Consumer Healthcare, Matsco, a Wells Fargo Company, ADA Business Resources and ADA’s Strategic Partner, Wm.

Dentist Population Could Contract by 2012 Oak Brook, IL—If current trends continue, getting an appointment with a dentist might become more challenging in coming years. A recent survey by the US-based independent research firm The Long Group, and sponsored by the not-for-profit Delta Dental Plans Association, found that the dentist population could begin to contract as early as 2012. Researchers looked at current dentist retirement rates and at survey responses from dentists who expressed a desire to make a career change within the next five-to-10 years and compared those numbers with the current dentist school graduation rate. Projecting these trends into the future, the study found that the 2009 dentist population of approximately 179,600 will increase through 2011 but retirement and career changes could outpace dentist school graduation beginning in 2012. By 2019, the dentist population could be smaller by nearly 7,000, assuming consistent dental school graduates of 4,500 annually.

ADA President Testifies on Access to Oral Health Care Washington, DC—American Dental Association President Dr. Ronald Tankersley testified today before an Institute of Medicine Committee on Oral Health Access to Services, outlining the ADA’s efforts to address ways to improve access for underserved populations. Dr. Tankersley took the IOM to task for its decision to exclude private practice dentists from two panels it is convening at the behest of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services to study oral health care delivery and access. Private practice dentists represent nearly 92 percent of all professionally active dentists, Dr. Tankersley said, and their input is crucial to addressing the oral health care access issue. Also of concern to the ADA, he added, was the closed-door nature of much of the committee’s business.

Sales Tax Harmonization

reduces your bottom line? DAVID CHONG YEN, CFP, CA

The Harmonized Sales Tax (HST) (i.e. combining the Ontario provincial sales tax with the Federal Goods and Services Tax) is scheduled to be implemented July 3, 2010. What does it mean to a dental professional?

Spring 2010

Dental Practice Management

Operating costs

The sales tax on certain expenses will now be 13% rather than 5%. These expenses may include but are not limited to dental supplies/equipment, office renovation, rent, utilities, postage, professional development, legal and accounting fees. If the total of these expenses is say $100,000 before taxes per year, then your additional cost will be $8,000. This translates to about $4,290 of additional costs net of personal taxes if you are a sole proprietor or $6,680 of additional costs net of corporate taxes if you have a corporation (i.e. professional or hygiene or technical). This also means less in your pocket.

Finances

Practice sale/purchase

There is no effect if you were to acquire/ sell shares of a corporation as there is no sales tax on these transactions; however, you will incur higher professional fees (i.e. legal, accounting and brokerage fees). If you were to acquire dental assets, you might face a higher price as your sales taxes will increase. Your accountant may be able to reduce your sales taxes by changing the asset price allocation. In general, purchasers are responsible for all sales taxes and therefore this should have little or no effect on the vendor except HST on the professional fees.

Time your purchase

ration becomes the owner of a dental building/office because of the following benefits: • No sales tax payable on closing. • Property would be creditor proofed from the dental practice. • Other family members could become shareholders and therefore permit income splitting. • PC could fund the purchase via low/ interest free intercompany loan. • Property could form part of the retirement nest egg.

Consider finalizing any major purchase prior to the implementation of the HST. i.e. buy before July 2010.

• Provide more flexibility at time of practice sale i.e. property may or may not be sold along with the practice.

Become a HST registrant

Basically, the Holdco becomes the landlord and charges rent to its tenants (e.g. sole proprietor dentists and professional/hygiene/technical corporations). With the introduction of the HST, the rent will be subjected to a 13% sales tax. If you have acquired the building prior to the implementation date (July 2010), you will end up paying more sales taxes in about 5 years if the annual rent is equivalent to about 10% of the value of the dental building. If you acquired the building subsequent to the implementation date, you will end up paying more sales taxes in about 11.5 years if the annual rent is about 10% of the value of the dental building.

Now is the time to review if it is beneficial for you/your professional/ hygiene/technical corporation to register for GST/HST. By registering, you/ your corporation may be able to recover some of the GST/HST paid; however, you are also obligated to collect HST on any cosmetic dentistry work. A cost/benefit analysis will review your situation.

Dental building purchase Very often, an entity (i.e. separate corporation, dentist, or his/her family members or a family trust) other than a professional/technical/hygiene corpo-

www.oralhealthjournal.com

Your decision to use a separate entity to own the dental office/building should not be entirely influenced by the HST. Your retirement plan and finance costs should be considered as well. Discuss this with your accountant before you sign on the dotted line. For those who already own a dental office/building in a separate entity, they should also revisit the ownership structure and evaluate the effect of the sales tax change. If you do decide to have your professional/hygiene/technical corporations own the building, you may do so on an income tax free basis. Consult your professional advisor before you transfer it; otherwise, it may cost you land transfer tax, HST and corporate or personal tax. Time is of essence as July 2010 is fast approaching.

The Globe and Mail reported in January, 2010 that the annual cost of dementia is growing rapidly. Dementia is the number one cause of disability over age 65 and this is only worsening as the large numbers of baby boomers age. Dementia is the medical term describing the slow loss of intellectual function. It encompasses a number of conditions including Alzheimer’s - which is the most common form of dementia. Alzheimer’s is the second most feared diagnosis after cancer. There is no cure - just a handful of medications that may slow the inevitable, progressive decline.

tors promoting Alzheimer’s disease are smoking, poor diet, lack of intellectual stimulation and physical inactivity. The first recommendation on a recent report commissioned by the Alzheimer Society of Canada is to provide education to promote physical and mental exercise that can delay the onset of dementia. Mark Mattson, of the National Institute on Aging agrees: “Many of the same factors that can reduce our risk for cardiovascular disease and diabetes also reduce the risk for agerelated neurodegenerative disorders.” Unfortunately our sedentary society is not even coming close to meeting the minimum requirements for brain health. Only 8% of men and 4% of women actively participate in a complete exercise program, which includes cardiovascular activity, strength training and flexibility.

This includes the ability to correct errors, react to new situations and plan or make decisions.

In 2004, researchers at Leeds Metropolitan University in England studied 210 participants who used their company’s gym for aerobics, weight training, or yoga classes during their lunch breaks. The workers demonstrated more productivity and reported they were better able to handle their workloads. They also felt less stress and fatigue in the afternoon. Henry Lodge, the coauthor of Younger Next Year, say that the chemical makeup of your blood will change for most of the day after you exercise. This positive chemical change promotes the regeneration of cells in the body and the brain. Who says that exercise can’t be a gift that keeps on giving? Can you imagine being alert and focussed - being aware of your patients responses to your treatment, and finishing that crown and bridge procedure right on time at the end of a long day?

In 2007, researchers at Columbia University showed increased blood flow to a part of the brain responsible for memory, after only three month of regular exercise. The participants also experienced faster reaction times – can you see yourself grabbing that temporary crown as it falls toward the floor? Exercise stimulates growth factor proteins, reports Carl Cottman, director of the Institute for Brain Aging and Dementia at the University of California, Irvine. His team found a direct link between cognitive function and movement. He showed that exercise increases brainderived neurotrophic factor (BDNF),

Buyer’s Guide to LED Curing Lights GEORGE FREEDMAN DDS, FAACD, FACD

he early self-curing composite resins did not lend themselves to characterization and artistry. Their extended chemical-curing times limited the dentist’s opportunity to develop esthetic tooth-like shapes and colors. The introduction of camphoroquinone containing light-cured composites in the early 1980s provided the quantum leap into appearance-related treatment that has driven the profession (and motivated the public) for the past three decades.

Some of the options enhance and simplify the curing process, while others are simply bells and whistles. Not every option is required, or useful, in every practice. Dentists operate under different clinical parameters, reflecting the many types of practices and personal preferences. Manufacturers have developed curing lights in many shapes and forms to answer these needs. The optimal purchase involves matching the needs of the practice with the parameters of the light curing unit.

Composites and adhesives are only a part of the esthetic revolution, however. Most esthetic/cosmetic procedures depend on a single, essential dental apparatus, the curing light. The advantages of photo curing include: virtually unlimited clinical working time, improved restorative properties and longevity, and on-demand polymerization. The practitioner is free to place, reposition, reshape, and otherwise manipulate the composite in a tooth cavity or on a tooth surface until functional and esthetic objectives are attained. Once the function and form are to the clinician’s satisfaction, the resin is cured within seconds.

Curing modes are designed to optimize photon delivery to the restorative material during the polymerization process. These convenience settings simplify the curing process using built-in programs to vary the light output but may increase the cost.

The first curing lights projected in the ultra-violet range and were potentially harmful to the eyes (patient, dentist, and assistant). Mercifully, they were quickly replaced by the halogen curing lights that became the profession’s mainstay for the next two decades. Currently, the LED (light emitting diode) curing light is by far the most popular selection among dentists. Just about every direct and indirect restorative procedure involves light curing. Since the dental profession is so dependent on this single piece of equipment, understanding the curing light, its properties and uses, is highly important for the progressive dental practice. There are numerous choices. Generally, the cost of a curing light is influenced by the quality of the unit itself and the optional features that are included.

What to look for:

Preset curing intervals in multiples of five, 10, or 20 seconds are a standard feature. No stopwatch required. A clearly audible beep is a definite plus. Cord to base connects the handheld wand to the base charger. Most current LED curing lights are cordless and portable, however. This is a major chairside advantage. They charge in the corded base unit but are then transported cordlessly to the patient’s mouth during use. Mounting options include wall, counter, and dental unit. The light curing unit is one of the two most commonly used dental instruments and must have a practical storage and charging spot. It must be readily accessible, conveniently usable, and just as easily replaceable into its cradle. radii plus curing light.

radii plus: not just a powerful LED curing light Curing? Whitening? Transilluminating? The Radii Plus does it all! The amazing transformation takes place with a simple pull and click of the LED attachment. It’s unique, easy to upgrade design, provides unlimited potential making it the best investment you will ever make! And of course, rest assured this investment will be a long lasting one, as most parts of this unit have a 5 (yes 5!!) year warranty! As a curing light, the Radii Plus brings new standards to the industry. Weighing in at only, 177g, the Radii Plus has and extremely high intensity of 1500mW/cm2, providing a 6mm depth, thus enabling a more complete curing of the restoration. The Radii Plus’ lithium-ion battery’s long life allows for 1200 ten-second cures before needing to be recharged. The Radii Plus is extremely easy to use. The one touch on/ off button is easily activated with your finger. The user has a choice — ramp or no ramp. Using a combination of pulse technology and steady current, the Radii Plus can achieve a higher light output with out generating excess heat. Now, that all being said, what sets the Radii Plus aside from the pack, is the unique ability to change the LED attachments: curing, whitening and transilluminating! Curing: The Radii Plus comes standard with the “Contra Angle” LED attachment. Should you want to cure at a right angle, choose the optional “Right Angle” LED attachment. The “Ortho” LED attachment beeps every 10 seconds, but runs for 5 minutes straight as orthodontists need a little more curing time than general practitioners. Autoclavable tacking tips (1mm and 2mm openings) are available for veneer procedures. Simply place over the lens cap. Transillumination: The diagnostic LED attachment lights up those hard to see clinical problems that traditional examination procedures can not. The Radii Plus diagnostic LED attachment emits a safe white light which passes through tooth structure. A healthy tooth has an index of light transmission greater than that of decay or calculus. The diagnostic attachment is a great tool to assist you with early caries management. Should a finer beam of light be required to illuminate sites where access is difficult, an adapter tip is also available. Simply replace the lens cap with this adapter. Easily identify: cracked tooth syn-

drome, depth of a subgingival fracture, subgingival calculus, interproximal decay, caries, where the radiographic image is questionable, caries removal within a new preparation, hidden root canal openings, non-vital teeth, leaking restorations, root tips in surgical extractions. Bleaching: The “single tooth” and “full arch” bleaching LED attachments are designed as an adjunct to in-office tooth whitening systems such as Pola Office+ (SDI). Some bleaching lights on the market emit high temperatures that may cause pulpal necrosis. The full arch bleaching LED attachment emits a safe temperature of around 37ºC, and the single tooth attachment will heat to around 45ºC.

heavy curing light can cause operator fatigue. A lightweight curing unit, however, is comfortable, easy to use, and ergonomically sound. Noise of operation is a frequently forgotten parameter. Dentists and staff are continually exposed to loud noises which can, in time, damage hearing acuity. Dental equipment should be designed to minimize this background noise. In the average operatory, the curing unit is in operation for 90-120 minutes per day. Fortunately, most LED curing lights do not require a cooling fan, and therefore emit little if any noise. The above parameters represent the questions that the practitioner should ask before purchasing an LED curing light. They will assist in aligning the needs of the practice and the practitioner with the properties of the most suitable polymerization instrument. DPM

Commercial Lease Renewal

Do’s & Don’ts for Dental Tenants

DALE WILLERTON

n leasing, dental tenants don’t get what they deserve - they get what they negotiate! Since 1993, I have been helping dentists and other commercial tenants learn the Do’s & Don’ts of Negotiating Commercial Leases and Renewals. Here are a few tips:

1 2 3 4

Create competition for your tenancy. Negotiate on multiple locations simultaneously - especially with lease renewals, even if you don’t want to move. Create options and play one landlord against another. Share with each landlord that you are receiving other proposals. Make the landlord earn your tenancy or re-earn your renewal.

Start the planning and site selection process well in-advance. For existing practices and lease renewals, begin 12 months in advance. This allows for ample time for negotiating, completing paperwork, searching for alternate sites (if necessary) and accounting for Murphy’s Law. Keep your success quiet. Landlords primarily raise rent due to a dental tenant’s success. With profiting in a particular location, you likely will not want to move even if you can afford the rental increase. Some realtors and landlords will take advantage of dentists knowing how expensive it can be to move and set up a new practice.

Talk to other tenants. For lease renewals, talk with other tenants in the building who have recently renewed leases. Ask how these renegotiations went and what the landlord was willing to agree to in terms of rental rates and further tenant incentives.

5 6

Negotiate for lease renewal incentives. For some reason, dental tenants neglect, or are simply fearful of negotiating for lease renewal incentives. If your lease is expiring, ask yourself what inducements (eg: free rent/tenant allowances) would the landlord give to a new dentist just coming into the property. Don’t have false optimism. When dentists tell me their practice isn’t doing well, but they want to renew their lease anyway, this is false optimism. Unless you change location or something else about the way you practice, you should not realistically expect your next five years to be better than your first five years. Moving can be difficult, frightening, time-intensive and expensive; however, sometimes, this is absolutely necessary.

Don’t accept an inappropriate lease length. For dentists, an initial 10-year lease term is typical. When renewing, do not automatically sign for that same or similar time frame without considering your own future. Will you sell your practice or retire? Don’t get locked into a long-term lease renewal unnecessarily.

Don’t settle for your same rental payment. Achieving a rent reduction on your lease renewal is a very real possibility. If your landlord is leasing space to new tenants at less than what you are currently paying, a rent reduction for you should be achievable. If your current rental rate is artificially high because of your last tenant allowance, a rent reduction on your renewal term could also be in order. Again, talk

Real Estate

with other tenants who have recently renewed or moved in to see how much they are paying. Don’t allow the landlord to retain your deposit. If you have paid the landlord a deposit, ask for this back upon your lease renewal date. You have proven yourself as a responsible tenant over your initial term. Why should your landlord keep this money?

Brokers...Friend or Foe? Real estate agents and brokers typically work for the landlord who is paying their commission. It is not normally the agent`s role to get the tenant the best deal - it is their job to get the landlord the highest rent, the biggest deposit, etc. The higher the rent you pay, the more commission the agent earns. If you are researching multiple properties, try to deal directly with the listing agent for each property, rather than letting one agent show you around or show you another agent`s listing. Your tenancy is more desirable to the listing agent if he can avoid commission-splitting with other agents.

1 12

Don’t disregard your Operating Costs. Having your lease and/or operating costs audited is an effective way to keep your landlord and property manager accountable. Frequently, dental tenants pay inflated Common Area Maintenance (CAM) because of padded or miscalculated operating costs. Often, it can be advantageous for groups of tenants sharing the same property to unify for an operating cost audit. Don’t exercise options. Even though you have a renewal option, you may not want to exercise it - especially if the renewal term’s rental rate automatically increases or can’t decrease. If you are certain that your landlord wants you to stay and market rates (the “going rate” in your neighbourhood) have softened, you may want to negotiate the renewal from scratch.

The most advanced curing light in the world from Ultradent ®

Crafted from aircraft-grade aluminum, VALO (from Ultradent) is ultra-sleek, lightweight, and precision-balanced to eliminate hand fatigue. Uni-body construction makes the VALO the most robust curing light on the market – it is virtually indestructible. And its scratch-resistant sapphire-hard coating and Teflon seal ensures ease of cleaning.

PowerFULL

VALO’s patented broadband LED technology polymerizes ALL light-cured dental materials and features three curing modes – standard, high power, and plasma emulation. And, its optimally collimated beam delivers a complete, uniform cure.

Easy Access

Low profile pen design (same size as a toothbrush) enables you to easily access hard-to-reach areas other curing lights simply cannot reach.

Portability

With a 7ft cord and a quick-release connector (for the 6ft power supply – giving you 13ft total reach) VALO can be easily moved from operatory to operatory. Hook up another 6ft power cord in a different operatory, unclip the VALO and you’re fully mobile!
