Yes, indeed, I was on the road again this year for dental health around the wide globe. In February, I took part in the Austrian congress, which was held this time in the city of chamois Kitzbhel. I learned a lot of interesting facts and new things about splints, the method of invisible tooth adjustment. It was really interesting! The speaker from the Federal Republic of Germany reported that he makes transparent splints for almost all patients. This way, the regulation of the teeth and jaws is more successful. Furthermore, he spoke about the fact that his clientele now includes more adults than children and adolescents.

The following month I was present at the SIDO congress in the Ligurian capital Genoa. Here I was able to present a patient's case according to my effective treatment method. May was also very intensive, when I attended the AAO World Dental Congress in Miami, USA. It was especially nice that my 16-year-old granddaughter Nadine accompanied me on the long journey. So, she could also listen to the various lectures and see how crooked teeth are currently treated. Through the interesting presentations, I was able to awaken in her an interest in the medical profession, and I am already looking forward to her following in my footsteps.

The Portuguese port city of Porto was the scene of an international splint congress, at which I was also present. And in fall, I was also able to attend the international congress in Florence, which I was very happy about, especially since I have always been committed to lifelong learning. In the picturesque Tuscan city there was a lively exchange around the latest findings in dentistry. Not long ago, I also saw Dr. Ramon Perera in Rome, one of the best orthodontists internationally.

Exactly twelve years ago now, I completed my master's training with him in Munich. As before, and the visit with him is testimony to this, continuing education is the key to success. I can say similar things about the personal exchange of ideas with the globally active speaker. The Corona pandemic prevented the live dialogue, but this year I was able to see and/or meet old and new faces again. Last year I was a congress participant in Japan, but only on the online way, even if one had the advantage to listen to all lectures on the digital way for one month. So, I was able to present a patient's case from my practice here as well.

In my practice, both my son and I have again been able to do a lot for dental health in Bressanone. The trend is clearly moving in the direction of digital dentistry. This includes digital impressions and digital two- or three-dimensional X-rays. It is obvious that minimally invasive dentistry is now indispensable. In the meantime, fewer and fewer healthy teeth are being used as bridge abutments; in the case of a tooth gap, the indication for implants is the gold standard in our practice.

From a private point of view, I can only report positive experiences. I have already mentioned the interest of my granddaughter Nadine. In addition, I was able to witness three baptisms of my daughters' children. My wife Astrid, with whom I was able to celebrate the ruby wedding anniversary (40 years, editor's note), and I now have eleven healthy grandchildren. All are happy and enjoying life. I will step back more and more and watch the young generation - namely my daughter Julia with my son-in-law Markus, but also my son Florian - and enjoy life. I am pleased that for some years now the young ones have been carrying on everything to the satisfaction of everyone, and by that I mean the patients, but also mine.

When the well-known dentist from Bressanone Dr. Anton Plattner looks back on four decades of activity and has to report about the ups and downs of his professional career, he proudly claims that there have been almost only successes, which he certainly also owes to the good training he received at the University Clinic of Innsbruck. He also wants to take the opportunity to thank his dear wife Astrid, who has supported him energetically and unconditionally from the very beginning. Of course, this also applies to his loyal team, that he has gathered around him. Because in the end that is decisive for a good treatment.

Dr. Anton Plattner is a dentist with heart and soul. Even more: He has made his profession to his vocation. He has learned to see dentistry as a whole. Even though nowadays specialization, which produces well-trained specialists, predominates, the dentist from the cathedral city recognizes that the overall view of general dentistry is being lost. The dentist from Bressanone finds that a pity. Nevertheless, he would take the same path all over again.

Dr. Anton Plattner knows that his profession will always be needed, whether for dental prophylaxis or simply to straighten crooked teeth. Thanks to implantology, fewer and fewer teeth are being ground down for a bridge. As patients are often getting more demanding, the demand for cosmetic dentistry is higher than ever. A beautiful smile in society has its advantages; similar things can be said about beautiful assistants for the dentist. But the most important thing is the caring approach to patients, which can be considered the key to success.

In times like these, it is definitely a plus for dentists, too, if they are always continuing their education. Dialog with international colleagues is particularly important to the man from Bressanone. Only then can you separate the much-cited wheat from the chaff. It is no disadvantage to be naturally inquisitive and curious, as Dr. Anton Plattner is. That makes many things easier. Participation in international congresses and lecturing on various topics have made him a luminary who has also written down his experiences in a beautiful book that has been passed on to colleagues.

The joy of the profession is in the foreground. Acquiring new professional knowledge and empathy are also expedient to being successful. Nevertheless, there is definitely room for improvement in the interpersonal relationship between patient and dentist. If the fears of the patient are perceived and the dentist treats without causing more fear or pain for the patient, the initially anxious patient will be less frightened next time.

Dr. Anton Plattner admits that he cleans his teeth two or three times a day with fluoride toothpaste. Dental floss and interdental brushes are also not to be missed. He knows that everyone is responsible for their own dental health. Knowing today how to prevent tooth decay, he tries to take care of his teeth as much as possible. In terms of cleaning, his methodology can also be seen as setting an example. Nevertheless, Anton Plattner admits that he himself does not like to go to a colleague. In any case, though, healthy teeth represent the foundation for overall health.
