| DENTSPLY INDIA |
DENTSPLY India was established in 1995 and was the first Western dental concern with a 100% owned subsidiary on the subcontinent. The Company's strength is the broad range of products manufactured and distributed for the Indian market. Substantial market penetration has been achieved with DENTSPLY's world famous brands, including dental prosthetics, restorative material, endodontic instruments and materials, impression materials, ultrasonic scalers, curing lights and lab products. With Sales and Marketing headquarters in New Delhi and satellite sales offices in Mumbai, Bangalore and Kolkata, along with a strong distribution network spread across the interior of the country, DENTSPLY India is focussed on success.
After consolidating its operations, Dentsply India embarked on its mission to provide quality Dental education to dentists by bringing them face to face with internationally acclaimed dental practitioners and academicians from various disciplines of dentistry. We consider ourselves as pioneers in widely popularising the practice of “crown down technique” which has not only made RCT simpler but has also helped in increasing the success rate and reducing the number of visits a patient has to make to the dentist.
In the year 2000, Dentsply India commenced its operations in Nepal. Simultaneouly in 2002, Dentsply India launched its lab range of products in areas of fixed as well as removable prosthodontics. In the year 2005, we launched the Implant range with three implant options to offer a still wider range of products and services to the dentists. In 2006 the span of control was expanded to add Sri Lanka as well. |

| DENTSPLY INTERNATIONAL |
DENTSPLY is a multinational, health care corporation with operations around the globe and a rich history of product excellence dating back to the Nineteenth Century.
In the year 1820, the craftsmanship evidenced by a family of London silversmiths prompted a local dentist to encourage them to begin the production of dental supplies. Seven decades later, a Swiss dentist developed the first effective gold filling material. This led his sons to establish a dental business which spread throughout the European Continent and eventually to America. |

In 1872 a Toledo, Ohio, druggist was persuaded by area dentists to add dental supplies to his lines of surgical and barber products. In Delaware five years later, a dentist with only one employee set up a crude manufacturing plant in a small shed to the rear of his boyhood home. Towards the close of the century, four young businessmen from New York City pooled their resources, knowledge and skills to enter the retail dental business for themselves.
From these diverse and modest beginnings, an enterprise emerged that is, today, the foremost independent dental corporation on Earth. DENTSPLY is the largest manufacturer of dental prosthetics and consumable dental products in the world, with factories in Europe, North and South America, and Asia and sales distribution facilities scattered throughout the globe. Our extensive research and development efforts provide the dental community with a complete range of high-quality materials used for prosthetic, restorative and preventive applications.
With manufacturing complexes and distribution centers strategically located in twenty-one countries on six continents, DENTSPLY is uniquely positioned to serve dentistry on a global basis. |

However, location alone is no harbinger of success. Companies must also depend upon their reputation for service and upon their delivery of high-quality products that serve real market needs. DENTSPLY has been blessed on both counts. We have brought more innovative products to the dental office and dental laboratory than any other manufacturer, and our resultant reputation in the marketplace is second to none.
The name DENTSPLY and its brand names such as CAULK, CAVITRON, DELTON, DYCAL, JELTRATE, LUCITONE, MIDWEST, NUPRO, RINN, and TRUBYTE have really become synonymous with quality. All of the Company's products share a highly regarded market reputation for consistent reliability and unmatched performance. These distinctions guide us in our ongoing efforts to continue offering our customers the very finest products possible.
The Company's continued good fortune lies in our ability to deliver the newest and most dependable technology at affordable prices. Recognizing this and in preparation for the future, we remain committed to continued research and development that strengthens our position on the leading edge of technology.
DENTSPLY's research centers in Europe and North America complement one another. These centers are capably staffed by dentists and graduate chemists, metallurgists, ceramic engineers and laboratory technicians. In fact, DENTSPLY's research and development expenditures continue to be the highest of any other dental company in the world. Independent researchers and inventors are also sought out for new ideas, techniques and products worthy of the DENTSPLY name. In the manufacturing arena, our foremost goal is zero-defect products with exceptional quality built in from the very start. We strive to perfect their services at every level of the business and are confident that their programs will meet with success. |

| For the past 100 years, this Company has grown with the same philosophy as our founders - that of personal and professional service to dentistry. In 1899 the Company was incorporated to serve the dental needs of a community. Today the same Company, DENTSPLY International, is serving the dental health care needs of the world.
