RENO, Nev., Oct. 1, 2008 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- nSequence Center for Advanced Dentistry (Reno, NV) and Medical Modeling Inc., (Golden, CO) have formed a global strategic alliance to market Medical Modeling's AccuDental(r) tactile models to clinicians worldwide. ``'nSequence powered by AccuDental(r)' represents the dawn of the next generation of dental laboratories moving toward becoming completely digital,'' stated Daniel Llop, CEO of nSequence Center for Advanced Dentistry.

The face of dentistry is changing dramatically on a daily basis. Dental clinicians are now incorporating digital technologies and the use of tactile models in the course of treatment planning for dental implant placement, as well as other types of advanced dental cosmetic procedures. Dental implants and bone grafting represents over $4.8 billion being spent in this fast growing, esthetically-motivated industry. Clinicians now can easily implement these new digital technologies, assuring a more precise and successful outcome for dental restorations.

The exclusive relationship between the companies surrounding the AccuDental(r) product line allows taking cone beam volumetric images (CBVI) data from scan to final prosthetics in a multi-disciplinary environment, moving away from stone models to highly accurate, digitally-based models. This strategically-positioned alliance will bring new innovation and technological advancements to the fast emerging world of CAD/CAM digital dentistry. This is a powerful new concept merging the art of science and the dental laboratory with the emerging field of digital dental imaging and CAD/CAM rapid manufacturing.

``We feel this relationship with nSequence offers great potential for developing future products together,'' stated Andy Christensen, President of Medical Modeling Inc. ``nSequence's extensive knowledge in all aspects of dental restorative procedures coupled with the depth of its customer base will broaden the use of tactile models and services we can offer together to dentists, specialists, dental labs and 3-D scanning centers.''

nSequence and Medical Modeling bring over 35 years of combined experience in multidisciplinary fields including all dental specialties, reconstructive surgical specialties and the emerging field of digital dentistry. They are expert users of many of today's leading software tools for medical image visualization, treatment planning, device design and surgical guidance in the field of dentistry and beyond. The two companies together provide a powerful combination of expertise and tools to assist in developing tomorrow's leading digital dentistry products and services.
