Latest Cone Beam CT and Dental Laser Tool Makes Surgery More Comfortable and Less Invasive

Dr. Timothy Kosinski introduced intra-oral cancer screening with Velscope technology that is used to assist dentists in discovering cancerous or pre-cancerous growths in patients 18 and older that may not be apparent to the naked eye.

Bingham Farms, Michigan, USA (December 24, 2014) — As the SmileCreator of Bingham Farms, Dr. Timothy Kosinski is recognized as a leader in making available the latest in technology and implant procedures to patients in Southeast Michigan. Dr. Timothy Kosinski introduced intra-oral cancer screening with Velscope technology that is used to assist dentists in discovering cancerous or pre-cancerous growths in patients 18 and older that may not be apparent to the naked eye.

Before that, Dr. Kosinski introduced into his practice CAD/CAM technology which made digital impressions easier on his patients and allows for computer fabrication of crowns and bridges. Now CT diagnosis, using the latest CT scanning equipment visualize the mouth area in three dimensions and simulates the surgical placement of dental implants in the proper position prior to ever touching the patient.

A new CO2 dental laser added into Dr. Kosinski’s practice makes possible a minimally invasive approach to surgery without using a blade which controls bleeding and minimizes post-operative complications and reduced patient discomfort after surgery. The CO2 dental laser also decontaminates the site, reducing the risk of infection.

“The CO2 is the most used laser in medicine and now is available for my use in dental surgery,” says Dr. Kosinski, “and we have much faster healing compared to traditional surgery methods.” (Watch Demonstration here: https://www.njvid.net/showvideo.php?pid=njcore:52380)

“Our new VaTech Cone Beam CT is a green machine — limiting hazardous materials from being integrated into the device, thus creating a low environmental impact,” says Kosinski. “The CT has ultra-low dose X-ray technology and has a rapid 5.9 second scan. It is nice to have this amazing technology right here in my office, for all our patients’ needs.”

Dr. Kosinski is still looking for individuals who are willing to be evaluated to see if they are eligible for dental implants at greatly reduced prices. Dr. Kosinski is looking for 40 patients to be involved in his teaching program for doctors learning his techniques in implant dentistry.

Candidates must be missing upper or lower back teeth and have no uncontrolled medical problems. A no-fee evaluation will be completed to determine if they are candidates for this teaching program.

Once selected, the individuals will receive a dental implant and abutment for $699 – an incredible $1,500 savings. After healing, a crown over the implant will be created by Dr. Kosinski, also for a reduced fee. All patients accepted in this program will receive a CT scan, or three dimensional X-ray to idealize their situation, at no fee (a $450 savings).

Those interested in the reduced implant procedure should contact Dr. Kosinski’s office, SmileCreator of Bingham Farms at 248-646-8651 to schedule a free, no cost or obligation appointment.

Dr. Kosinski is a Dental Practitioner who has established himself in the dental implant field and has trained hundreds of professional dentists and dental students in the best techniques for successful implants. Dr. Kosinski has placed well over 10,000 dental implants in his dental career and did nearly 1,000 implants last year alone.

The implants at greatly reduced prices are offered because Dr. Kosinski participates in a dental training program he offers in cooperation with the Engel Institute led by Dr. Todd Engel. Professional dentists will come to Dr. Kosinski’s office to be trained and under his mentoring will perform implant surgery on select patients.

As important for his general dentistry patients, Dr. Kosinski’s team has also made available electric toothbrushes like the Pro Health System from Crest and Oral B because electric brushes are far more effective in eliminating gingivitis than normal brushing – removing 100 percent more plaque than manual brushing.

The SmileCreator of Bingham Farms office is located at: 31000 Telegraph Rd., Suite 170, Bingham Farms, MI 48025. For more information visit: http://www.SmileCreator.Net.

XebiaLabs Ranks 15 on Deloitte Fast 500 List

EMA Ranking validates clear business value behind software automation.

Boston, MA (USA), December 12, 2014 — XebiaLabs, the leading provider of software automation for bringing applications quickly to market, today announced it achieved a 15th place ranking in the 2014 Deloitte Technology Fast 500TM for the Europe, Middle East & Africa (EMEA) region.

XebiaLabs achieved an impressive 8,609 percent growth rate over a five-year span to win the 15th place out of 500 companies ranked. The Deloitte program is the pre-eminent technology awards program in EMEA and now in its fourteenth year.

“We’re delighted to receive this recognition but we must credit our growth to the fact that businesses are seriously under pressure to turn their innovative ideas into usable software,” said Coert Baart, XebiaLabs CEO. “This means ‘concept-to-cash’ in days, instead of weeks or months. But due to existing legacy systems and outdated release processes, this rarely happens. Continuous Delivery by XebiaLabs changes the game. For starters, it radically removes waste and time from the software production process.”

Continuous Delivery takes all manual processes associated with building software — from testing, deployment, configuration and monitoring — and fully automates that cycle. Combined with customer feedback, creating a competitive software build & release machine is possible for your business.

International corporations such as General Electric, Expedia, Xerox, KLM, and Société Générale use XebiaLabs to accelerate software applications into the marketplace while reducing costly errors and downtime.

Enservio Finds Guns & Ammo Overvalued in Claims

“Member of the Family” sentiment increases perception of value.

Needham, MA (USA), December 12, 2014 — Enservio, Inc., a leading provider of software and services across the entire value chain of contents claims processing, today announced that firearms and ammunition are commonly overvalued in insurance claims from more than 50% to 126% respectively. Enservio data also finds that approximately 10% of the $2 billion in claims it processes annually contain guns, ammo and firearm accessories.

According to GunPolicy.org, the estimated rate of private gun ownership (both licit and illicit) in America is 101.05 firearms per 100 people, making the U.S. the highest per capita in the world for the possession of firearms.

“The chances of a field adjuster or claims inventory professional finding a gun while on the job are extraordinarily high,” said Enservio Senior Contents Consultant Chad Horlbogen, who has 26 years of advanced firearms experience and tactical weaponry training. “Americans love their guns, but valuing them can be difficult. Being a specialty item, firearms have unique characteristics that claim pros need to know about in order to fairly reimburse or replace these items correctly.”

A common perception held by policyholders is that guns depreciate very little and are worth more than what they paid for them–in some cases, more than retail value. One reason for this thinking is due to the fact that they are constructed of solid, lasting materials.

“Many people believe that all guns appreciate in value. They are often passed down between generations, and considered a member of the family,” added Horlbogen.

State and federal restrictions placed on purchasing guns can also amplify their perceived values. For these reasons Enservio recommends obtaining expert appraisal on this specialty product category.

Enservio Findings:

* Handguns: Average policyholder claims $285; actual cash value is $186
* Rifles: Average policyholder claims $291; actual cash value is $186
* Rifle Ammunition: Average policyholder claims $104; actual cash value is $46
* Rifle Magazines: Average policyholder claims $36; actual cash value is $10
* Shotgun scopes: Average policyholder claims $62; actual cash value is $31

In an effort to educate claims adjusters on the key value factors behind valuing firearms and ammo, interested parties can tune in to hear Chad Horlbogen present a 30-minute webinar on “Best Practices for Valuing Firearms” by visiting: http://www.enservio.com/web-overview/firearms-on-demand-webinar

SmartTOP Add-On Top Module for Jaguar F-Type Convertible Now Available

Effective immediately the after-market SmartTOP Convertible Top Controller made by Mods4cars is available for the Jaguar F-Type. The module allows convenient one-touch opening and closing of the top from the console switch. It also enables remote top operation from the original key fob. These main functions along with some bonus features make daily use of the convertible more convenient.

Las Vegas, NV (USA), December 05, 2014 — The SmartTOP kit aftermarket automotive electronics specialist Mods4cars announced in August for the Jaguar F-Type Convertible is now available and in stock. “After completion of the first production run of the custom designed Plug-and-Play wiring adapters, the first modules were shipped in mid-November.” explains PR-Manager Sven Tornow. “We already received positive feedback as well.” he continues.

The add-on SmartTOP kit offered by Mods4cars makes top operation more convenient by enhancing the console switch with one-touch operation. It is no longer necessary to hold down the switch for the entire time. A quick touch is enough to start a full automatic opening or closing cycle. Additionally it is programmable if the windows should open or close afterwards.

SmartTOP also allows remote control of the top from the original key fob. A quick key combination is enough. “SmartTOP customers can open the convertible top while still approaching the car and drive off top-down.” says Sven Tornow. No changes need to be made to the original keys or receiver system.

The newest Mods4cars product also comes with a host of bonus features such as separate control of the windows from the remote and an option to reverse the console switch direction. All features can be programmed individually to taste. An extended mode can be activated that allows starting or stopping the engine while the top is moving and it is possible to temporarily disable the entire module while retaining all user settings.

The kit ships with a custom designed Plug-and-Play wiring harness adapter which allows anyone to install it in minutes. Connection between the module and car electronics is made by simply plugging in two connectors. Original parts were used to guarantee a perfect and secure fit. No cutting or splicing of any wires is necessary. Everything can be removed without leaving any trace or damage.

The SmartTOP module comes equipped with a USB port for quick configuration and firmware updates via Mac or Windows PC. Updates and support software are available online, free of charge. “Once you buy a SmartTOP, you always have an up-to-date product.” Sven Tornow concludes.

Mods4cars offers the SmartTOP line of products with kits available for these popular brands: Alfa, Audi, Bentley, BMW, Ferrari, Ford, Infiniti, Jaguar, Lamborghini, Mazda, Mercedes-Benz, Mini, Nissan, Opel, Peugeot, Porsche, Renault, Volvo and Volkswagen.

The kit for Jaguar F-Type Convertibles is available for 299 Euros + tax.

About Mods4cars:
Mods4cars was founded in 2002 with the idea to add a highly demanded feature to the otherwise almost perfect Porsche Boxster: Comfort One-Touch roof operation while driving at slow speeds. The resulting product offered not only that, but also allowed quick and easy installation by just swapping out a relay box, thus leaving no traces and no permanent changes on the vehicle. The first SmartTOP roof controller was born.

The success of their first products in Germany and Europe prompted them in late 2004 to move operations to the USA, to be able to serve the American market as well as all other English speaking countries such as Australia, UK and South Africa from one central location. Their business has grown to a full-fledged international corporation with an office in Las Vegas and a full line of innovative products as well as distributors and installation partners all over the globe.

Being highly specialized in the development and distribution of aftermarket roof- and comfort controllers since 2002 allows them to offer an unsurpassed level of competence and product quality. Their main goal is optimization of each individual product to a maximum in compatibility, usability and intuitive operation. They put greatest effort into development and quality checks of all their products to achieve this goal and meet all expectations of their customers.

The extraordinary success of their products is also based on the great communication with their customers, which usually already starts for each new product during the development and prototyping phase.

Best Places to Work LAN Systems Named #3

No. 3 Small employer in Atlanta is LAN Systems, a leader in Business IT Support, in the Atlanta Business Chronicle’s.

Berkeley Lake, GA (USA), December 05, 2014 — No. 3 Small employer in Atlanta is LAN Systems, a leader in Business IT Support, in the Atlanta Business Chronicle’s.

Every two weeks, LAN Systems CEO Mary Hester hands out payroll checks to her employees, even though almost everybody has direct deposit. The reason? It’s a chance to say, “Thank you,” she said.

Prior to this year, Hester had considered entering Atlanta Business Chronicle’s Best Places To Work contest, but hadn’t pulled the trigger. This year she did, and doing so paid off: LAN Systems finished third in the small employer category.

LAN Systems provides information technology services for small to midsized businesses, and helps them choose the best services to fuel growth — including setting up cloud-based systems for companies that don’t have an IT team. “We want to help small businesses be competitive and IT is their competitive advantage,” said Hester, who bought LAN Systems in 2008. “You can’t grow a company today without some serious IT and without knowing how to use it.”

With an MBA and a background in electrical engineering, Hester’s initial hiring plan was more akin to how she’d staff an engineering firm: have a recruiting firm identify candidates, senior management interview them and then, ultimately, they’d meet with Hester. “It didn’t work,” she said. So she flipped the system. Now candidates interview with her first. “The majority of the people in the company are team players. They believe that for them to do better, you need to do better,” Hester said. “It’s why I believe we’re on this list. We hire smart, bright people and point them in the right direction.

Hester encourages employees to try new things. “It’s OK if it’s not perfect. Some people think that if they try and they make a mistake they’ll be chastised for their mistakes,” she said. She’d rather them try and, if it doesn’t work out, learn from mistakes. “I like them to think, think, think and to look at things. It gives them a chance to make a difference and to use their intelligence,” she said.

“I sincerely have nothing derogatory to say about my company as I have great affection for it,” said one of LAN Systems’ 15 employees in a survey taken as part of the Best Places To Work program. “Don’t take my word for it, go and meet with the people at LAN Systems, Mary the owner, Terry, Lauren or Joe or Aitor — any one of them will do. I think you will see why I enjoy working there so much and why so many of our customers trust us to help them with their vital IT infrastructure.”

About LAN Systems:
LAN Systems is a leading Atlanta IT Support company that provides people-focused IT solutions. As technology experts, LAN Systems helps companies make the most of their existing IT investment and choose the right solutions to fuel growth.
