Booth: B-6, B-7

BILLERICA, Massachusetts, May 7, 2011 - Objet Geometries Ltd. (www.objet.com/), the innovation leader in
3D printing (www.objet.com/rapid_prototyping/) for rapid prototyping
(www.objet.com/rapid_prototyping/) and additive manufacturing, will
demonstrate the benefits of adding 3D printing to the workflow, at LMT LAB
DAY West. Exhibiting at Booth B6, B-7, Objet will present printed dental
parts and models live on the stand throughout the show on the Objet
Eden260V(TM) 3D printing system.

"As digital dentistry becomes a standard part of production process for
many dental practices and laboratories, Objet 3D printing solutions provide
dentists with a high level of precision that is difficult to achieve using
traditional freehand dental techniques," states Avi Cohen, Head of Medical
Solutions at Objet Geometries. "The ability to perfectly reproduce smooth,
finely detailed dental parts in real life, direct from CAD design imagery,
represents a significant leap towards the age of full digital dentistry
(www.objet.com/INDUSTRIES/Dental/)."

"Dentists and patients have begun to see the technology as a viable
alternative to their practices," asserts Avi Cohen. "Production times are
significantly reduced and bottlenecks are a thing of the past as multiple,
unique parts are built in single print runs. The precision and accuracy of
Objet printed parts are well recognized, and the potential for human error is
removed from the process. Objet technology can significantly reduce the
fabrication times of parts and models and output per technician can be
dramatically increased."

Objet will also showcase a broad range of the dental models at the event,
specifically designed for the dental market. The material features extreme
toughness, dimensional stability and great detail visualization - producing
models that can be handled immediately after being built.

Avi Cohen concludes, "Choosing the right equipment to get the best return
on investment is not trivial. Objet Geometries enables dental practitioners
to reap the maximum benefits from the digital dentistry era, which is exactly
what we'll be demonstrating at the LMT LAB DAY West."

Among dental laboratories already using Objet 3D printing technology are
Glidewell Laboratories (www.objet.com/INDUSTRIES/Dental/), Albensi
Laboratories (www.objet.com/Portals/0/docs2/Albensi_CaseStudy.pdf),
iDent Imaging
(www.objet.com/NEWS_EVENTS/Press_Releases/News_2009/iDent_Imaging/)
and Remedent
(www.objet.com/NEWS_EVENTS/Press_Releases/Cosmetic_Dentistry/) to
fabricate unique stone models, orthodontic appliances, delivery and
positioning trays, veneer try-ins, full and partial denture try-ins, surgical
guides, clear aligners and retainers.

Objet Geometries Ltd. (www.objet.com/), the innovation leader in
3D printing for rapid prototyping and additive manufacturing, provides
3-dimensional printing systems that enable manufacturers and industrial
designers to reduce cost of product development and dramatically shorten
time-to-market of new products.

Objet's ultra-thin-layer, high-resolution 3-dimensional printing systems
and materials utilize PolyJet polymer jetting technology, to print ultra-thin
16-micron layers. The market-proven Objet Eden line of 3D Printing Systems
and the Objet24 and Objet30 desktop 3D printers are based on Objet's patented
office-friendly PolyJet Technology. The Objet Connex multi-material family is
based on Objet's PolyJet Matrix Technology, which jets multiple model
materials simultaneously and creates composite Digital Materials on the fly.
All Objet systems use Objet's FullCure(R) materials to create accurate,
clean, smooth, and highly detailed 3D parts.

Objet systems are in use by customers worldwide, including Fortune 100
companies, in multiple industries such as dental, medical, medical devices,
education, consumer electronics, automotive, toys, consumer goods, and
footwear industries.
