IdentAlloy/IdentCeram Council Ships Record Number of Certificates in 2010

January 10, 2011 – In 2010 the IdentAlloy/IdentCeram Council shipped a record 17.6 million certificates for dental labs to use in documenting the content and quality of restorative materials, according to Charles Yenkner, Executive Director of the Council. This represented an eight percent increase over 2009. Yenkner said the gain was driven by much greater interest among labs, dentists and patients in the material content of dental restorations.

In addition, seven new companies applied for and received licenses to use the Council’s materials verification system. “Our goal is to enroll all the manufacturers and distributors of alloy and ceramic substructure materials into this voluntary, self-regulatory program,” commented David Sklarski, CEO of Sterngold LLC and President of the IdentAlloy/IdentCeram Council. “We are pleased with the continuing growth in Council membership and the widening use of the certificates as a simple, positive way to verify material content for labs, dentists and patients.”
