In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Ivoclar Vivadent will donate $100 for each pink Bluephase Style LED curing light sold in October to Susan G. Komen for breast cancer research. Ivoclar Vivadent employees also will support the cause by participating in the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure. This marks the sixth year for Ivoclar Vivadent’s “Just Cure It!” campaign, initiated in 2013.
“Each year we are inspired by how well received this campaign is, and we remain committed to helping to fund the research that is so essential to finding a cure,” said Robert A. Ganley, CEO of Ivoclar Vivadent.
With its Polywave technology, the Bluephase Style provides the broadest spectrum available to efficiently cure all dental materials, and its specially designed light probe easily accesses posterior teeth, according to Ivoclar Vivadent. It can be used cordless or corded, and its slim design and intuitive two-button operation is lightweight, small, and ideal for any treatment, the company says.
Approximately 266,120 new cases of breast cancer will be diagnosed in the United States in 2018, the National Cancer Institute (NCI) reports. Yet there has been a steady decline in breast cancer deaths since 1990, NCI adds, which is attributable to advances in diagnosis and treatment.
