LIVINGSTON, N.J., Nov. 23, 2018 — Milestone Scientific Inc.

In addition, the Company announced that Dr. Casagrande presented The Wand STA at a forum hosted by the University of Florida College of Dentistry on October 31, 2018. Attendees at both events were provided the opportunity to work with The Wand and simulate various injection techniques.
Dr. Casagrande commented, “We received positive feedback to the recent presentations and hands-on demonstrations featuring The Wand, which reinforces our confidence in the market potential for The Wand. These seminars and presentations are part of our continued outreach efforts, focused on both current and next generation dentists. When trained in the use of The Wand, younger dentists and dental students have the potential to become lifetime users and advocates of the technology.”
The Company also announced that on November 20, 2018, it received a letter from NYSE American LLC (“NYSE American” or the “Exchange”) stating that it is not in compliance with the continued listing standards as set forth in Section(s) 1003(a)(i), (ii), and (iii) of the NYSE American Company Guide (the “Company Guide”).
