Nasseo, Inc. 
Nasseo, Inc. is a medical device company using state of the art surface modification technology to provide patients and clinicians with the next generation of dental and orthopedic implants.
Nasseo’s first product, the Nasseo TiArray™ dental implant system, integrates its proprietary surface modification technology to improve osseointegration. Many dental patients are currently advised not to obtain implants due to high failure rates. These patients include individuals with poor circulatory health issues, such as diabetes and smokers, and individuals who have taken bisphosphonates for an extended period of time. Nasseo’s dental implant system targets this large and growing patient demographic.
Dr. Garrett Cale Smith, PhD, Nasseo’s Co-Founder and CEO, co-invented the technology in an effort to provide better solutions for patients and clinicians. Dr. Smith says, “When implants fail, dentists lose time, money, and patient confidence. The dental industry continues to modify implant surfaces utilizing grit-blasting and coating techniques which do not take into account the structure of bone bonding at the molecular level. Nasseo’s novel surface modification technology aims to provide stronger bone-to-implant bonding resulting in better treatment options for both patients and dentists.”
Nasseo, Inc., has been selected to present at the World’s Best Technology (WBT) Innovation Marketplace 2012, presented by Northrup Grumman. Nasseo is among an elite 130 companies and technology innovators from across the globe that have been chosen by the WBT Selection Committee to present their work at WBT 2012, the premier showcase for innovators in the fields of life science, nanotech, material science and information technologies.
