3Shape's two major products, Dental System™ and the TRIOS® impression-taking solution, were selected as "Best in the Market" in their respective categories at Pragodent Expo in Prague, Czech Republic.
Copenhagen, November 8. 2011 - 3Shape has once again been honored with prestigious awards for its innovation and user-acclaimed products. During award ceremonies at the Pragodent Expo 2011 in Prague, Czech Republic, 3Shape's DentalSystemTM was officially proclaimed "the Czech Market's Best Dental 3D CAD/CAM system." Only moments later, 3Shape representatives were called back to the stage to accept yet another honor, this time on behalf of 3Shape's TRIOS® digitalimpression-taking solution that was elected "the Czech Market's Best Intra-Oral Scanner."
About Pragodent Awards
Each year Pragodent Expo's highly qualified selection process presents winners of Best Dental Product in the Czech Market in various technology and product categories. A judgment panel composed of 5 dental professionals from the Czech Dental Association studies and tests a wide range of existing products before deciding on award winners. Both awards were presented before all members of the Czech Dental Association and all the exhibitors attending the Congress Dinner held on the second Expo day.
About the Pragodent Expo
The Pragodent Expo in Prague, Czech Republic, is among the most significant dental trade shows in Central Europe. This year's Pragodent Expo was held from the 13th to the 15th of October 2011, and all the major brands and newest technologies were on display. 3Shape's distributors displayed 3Shape's latest solutions, and the dual new awards proudly showcased at the booth attracted large numbers of exhibition visitors representing dentists, clinics and lab professionals.
"All the key dental technology companies were at Pragodent, and they were all competing for these awards," says Morten Nordsted Jacobsen, 3Shape International Account Manager. "Winning not just one, but two, of Pragodent's awards is consistent with our strong presence in the Czech region. 3Shape's dominance is not only evident in the fact that we have the largest install-base, but also by the market's apparent recognition of our products as being the best," concludes Morten Nordsted Jacobsen.
This is the second year in a row that 3Shape has been honored with a First rating at Pragodent. At last year's Pragodent 2010, 3Shape's Dental SystemTM was named "the market's most innovative and powerful dental 3D CAD/CAM system."
TRIOS® is currently undergoing the final stages for commercialization and will be available in certain regions in the beginning of 2012. Dental System 2012 will be released later this year.
