Osteon Medical and Kyocera announce a collaborative partnership to bring digital solutions to the Japanese dental implant market.
President of the Kyocera Corporation, Hideo Tanimoto announced today it has entered into a business partnership with Osteon Digital Japan, the Japanese branch of Osteon Medical (CEO: Michael Tuckman), for continuous sales transactions, beginning sales of customised dental prosthesis for implants utilising Osteon Medical’s digital technology in September this year.
Kyocera introduced the first dental implant in Japan in 1978, and has expanded its business into implant systems. FINESIA ® was developed based on the results of industry-university joint research to stably function in the oral cavity of patients over the long term, and has many users, mainly in Japan.
The Victorian Government’s Trade and Investment Tokyo Office’s first contact with Osteon Medical regarding their interest in establishing an office in the Japanese market was back in August 2019, so it is wonderful to see their plans come to fruition in July 2021″ Adam Cunneen, Victoria’s Commissioner to North Asia.
Osteon Medical has developed high-precision CAD/CAM implant prosthesis technology using digital solutions over the last decade, providing customised dental prosthesis in the local Australian market and overseas. And in recent years the company has advanced development of IO scanning technologies with first-to-market digital workflows.
This collaboration will enable access to Osteon’s innovative dental technology by all Japanese dental professionals, which aims to meet the needs of dentists and dental laboratories, currently unable to be fulfilled by conventional technology.
