Milestone Scientific, Inc., and Aseptico, Inc., have signed an exclusive distribution agreement for Milestone’s Wand STA device and accessories for the United States and Canada.

Leonard Osser, Chief Executive Officer of Milestone Scientific, commented, “Having served the dental market for over 36 years, Aseptico is an ideal partner for Milestone as they currently market their products to over 150,000 dentists across the United States and Canada and have well established sales channels. We see this partnership as a means to rapidly and cost-effectively deepen our penetration of the U.S. and Canadian dental markets. We look forward to working closely with the experienced team at Aseptico as we enter the next phase of our growth.”

Glenn Kazen, President of Aseptico, stated, “We are excited to partner with Milestone and look forward to aggressively expanding sales of the STA System across the United States and Canada. The STA System offers patients a truly pain-free experience and represents the most advanced drug delivery system in the market. The product has mass appeal to the estimated 40 million plus patients in the North America who experience fear or anxiety about going to the dentist, as well as pediatric and adult patients seeking a more pleasant dental experience. Further, the STA System provides distinct benefits to the clinician, including faster onset of profound anesthesia, allowing the dentist to see significantly more patients or perform additional procedures during the same visit. Overall, we believe the STA System will resonate extremely well with new and existing dental customers and reinforces Aseptico’s commitment to providing our customers with exclusive access to the most advanced and clinically effective products on the market.”

According to the company, “the Wand STA is designed to take the fear, pain, and residual numbness out of anesthesia delivery. The Wand STA is the next generation of the Wand Compudent anesthesia delivery system and includes voice prompts/guidance, a digital depth gauge, and dosage meter. These and other features make the Wand STA more intuitive and easier to use than its predecessor. Similar to Aseptico’s own range of equipment, the Wand STA is manufactured and serviced in the United States, ensuring quality, value, prompt delivery, and exceptional customer service.”

Current or new Wand STA dealers and users, whether individual doctors or group practices, may contact Aseptico for Wand STA equipment, handpieces and accessory re-orders. The company is offering trade-in incentives on the prior Wand Compudent to give users an opportunity to upgrade their (and their patient’s) experience. Both Aseptico and Milestone will be exhibiting the Wand STA system at the Greater New York Dental Meeting and AAOMS Implant Meeting (Chicago).
