(PR NEWSWIRE) – July 27, 2010 – Milestone
Scientific Inc. (OTCBB:MLSS), the recognized leader in advanced,
computer-controlled injection technologies, today announced
that the Company’s patented, award-winning STA Single Tooth
Anesthesia System® has again been distinguished as one of
the “Top 100 Products” of the year by Dentistry Today, the
nation’s leading clinical news magazine for dentists.
For the past 24 years, Dentistry Today has recognized the
industry’s leading dental products through its “Top 100 Products”
awards program. The “2010 Top 100 Products” marks the third
consecutive year that the STA Single Tooth Anesthesia System
has been honored as a winning technology. As such, the STA
Single Tooth Anesthesia System has been featured in the special
Top 100 section of the publication’s July issue.
Leonard Osser, Chief Executive Officer of Milestone, stated,
“We’re very proud to have our STA Single Tooth Anesthesia
System again recognized as one of the dental market’s leading
technologies by one of the industry’s most respected publications.
The sheer volume of awards that the STA Single Tooth Anesthesia
System has won over the past three years is unprecedented
in our Company’s 15-year history and has served to support
our objective of establishing the instrument as the new global
standard of care for painless dental injections.”
The STA Single Tooth Anesthesia System takes the guesswork
out of the administration of anesthetic by providing real-time
visual and audible feedback via Milestone’s portfolio of
patented technologies for subcutaneous drug delivery for
medical and dental applications. The instrument utilizes
Milestone’s patented CompuFlo®technology with DPS Dynamic
Pressure Sensing®for the painless delivery and aspiration
of all medicaments. During an injection using the STA Single
Tooth Anesthesia System,continuous monitoring of the exit
pressure of the anesthetic enables a predictable and painless
“Single Tooth Anesthesia” to be performed, something that
was never before possible using conventional techniques.
The benefits of administering injections with the instrument
are significant for the patient, the dentist and the business
of Dentistry.
