Neoss announces collaboration with Dental Axess and Panthera Dental

Neoss has announced a strategic collaboration with Dental Axess and Panthera Dental to provide the highest quality CAD/CAM abutments utilising genuine Neoss componentry. To further enhance the portfolio of Neoss prosthetic solutions customers can now prescribe custom-milled titanium and chrome cobalt abutments, bars and bridges supplied together with an original Neoss Gold Crystaloc™ Abutment Screw through the Dental Axess network of 3Shape customers. This customised solution carries the Neoss warranty providing a genuine Neoss connection and componentry.

"This collaboration with Dental Axess and Panthera utilising the 3Shape scanner network ensures that our customers receive the genuine Neoss connection and the genuine Neoss screw - simply, efficiently and cost effectively!" said John Divitini, Managing Director of Neoss Australia. "As a company continually striving to deliver intelligent and simple expectations, we are very excited to provide our Australian and New Zealand customers and more importantly their patients with genuine titanium or chrome cobalt abutments, bars and bridges through Dental Axess and Panthera."

With this seamless integration, 3Shape customers are able to digitally design Neoss customised solutions and send these directly to Panthera Dental for manufacturing. All Neoss implant-retained solutions produced by Panthera Dental are precision-milled and supported by Panthera's unprecedented 25-year warranty.

"We are very pleased to be able to offer the growing network of 3Shape customers an opportunity to provide high precision, fully warrantied CAD/CAM abutment solutions for Neoss dental implants," said Dental Axess Director, Belinda Muggleton. "Together with Neoss Australia and Panthera Dental, we continue to provide our customers true flexibility whilst being fully supported."

About Neoss

Neoss' objective is to advance the science of dental implant treatment and build a significant and profitable dental implant company recognised for leading innovation, customer focus and ethical principles. Recent product launches include the Neoss Tapered implant launched in 2012; the Neoss Esthetiline Solution, launched in 2011, is the first to provide seamless restorative integration all the way through from implant placement to final crown restoration. The Neoss ProActive®, launched in 2009, features an implant surface that enhances protein aggregation and can accelerate fibrin network formation. Studies show that the, patent pending, etched and blasted ProActive implant surface stimulates bone to form more rapidly and with a greater strength at the implant interface. The Company, founded in 2000 by Doctor Neil Meredith and CTO, Fredrik Engman, is headquartered in Harrogate, UK with operations in USA, Germany, Austria, Italy, Sweden, Australia and New Zealand as well as representation in Switzerland, Ireland, Croatia, Denmark, Republic of Ireland, Czech Republic, Netherlands, Spain, Slovakia, Poland, Turkey, Japan, Thailand and Taiwan by exclusive distributors.
