SEOUL, South Korea/COPENHAGEN, Denmark: On 31 July, Osstem Implant entered into a global partnership agreement with 3Shape, a market-leading company in digital dentistry solutions. With the agreement, Osstem acquired the rights for global distribution of 3Shape’s TRIOS intra-oral scanner and CAD software. The South Korean company announced that it will launch TRIOS sequentially through its subsidiaries in China, India and the US.

The agreement with 3Shape will add to Osstem’s digital dentistry portfolio, and this is intended to accelerate growth and strengthen the company’s position in the global digital dentistry market.

I am delighted that, thanks to the global partnership agreement, Osstem can now provide high-level digital solutions not only to South Korean users but also to dental customers from all over the world. I believe that the cooperation between Osstem and 3Shape will not only benefit both companies but also generate the critical momentum to provide advanced digital dental technology for customers globally.“
