NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 1996

(consisting only of normal recurring accruals) which are, in the opinion of

the periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the
results to be expected for a full year.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements, prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles, have been condensed or omitted as allowed by Form 10-Q. The

Form 10-K.

ITEM 2.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Working capital increased from $7,557,000 at December 31, 1995 to
$8,244,000 at March 31, 1996. Cash and equivalents declined $301,000 from
$4,193,000 at December 31, 1995. The fundamental reason for the decline in
cash was the payment of $775,000 of deferred acquisition costs. Operating
activities provided $523,000 in positive cash flow.
The Company maintains a financing agreement ("the Agreement") with State
Street Bank and Trust Company (the "Bank"). The Agreement, as amended,
includes revolving lines of credit of $4,000,000 and $8,000,000. The interest
rate on both revolving lines of credit is the prime rate or Libor rate plus 2%,
at the Company's option. The first revolving line of credit matures on June 1,
1998 and the second revolving line of credit matures on June 1, 1997.
A commitment fee of one quarter of 1% is payable on the unused amount of
the first revolving line of credit. In addition, a draw down fee equal to 3/8
of 1% of each advance under the second revolving line of credit is payable at
the time of such advance. At March 31, 1996, the Company had the full
principal amount available under both revolving lines of credit.
Management believes that existing working capital and financing will be
sufficient to meet contemplated operating and capital requirements, including
costs associated with anticipated acquisitions, if any, in the foreseeable
future.

The following table sets forth for the periods indicated the percentage of

</TABLE>
Quarter Ended March 31, 1996 Compared with Quarter Ended March 31, 1995
Net Sales
Net sales increased $2,064,000 or 20.1% in the fiscal quarter ended March
31, 1996 over the corresponding period of the prior year. Approximately
1,823,000 of this increase is attributable to businesses acquired in 1995,
with the remaining increase representing unit growth at dental laboratories
operating in the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 1996 and in the comparison
quarter ended March 31, 1995.
Cost of Goods Sold
Cost of goods sold, which consists principally of labor and related
benefits, cost of materials, and laboratory overhead increased by $1,208,000.
As a percentage of sales, cost of goods sold increased from 56.6% to 56.9%,
representing a gross margin decrease of .3%. The increase was caused by higher
costs of labor and related benefits, offset by decreases in materials costs.
<PAGE> 10
Total Operating Expenses
Total operating expenses, which consist of (i) selling expenses, the cost
of the Company's pick-up and delivery services and administrative expenses at
the dental laboratory level, and (ii) costs of operation of the Company's
corporate headquarters and field support services increased by $622,000 or
18.3% during the first fiscal quarter 1996 over the corresponding period in
1995.
The increase is primarily attributable to the operating and amortization
expense associated with the eight dental laboratories acquired in 1995.
Additionally, spending has increased in the areas of technical training and
business development to further the Company's growth and productivity goals.
Operating expenses decreased as a percentage of net sales from 33.0% to 32.6%.
during the first fiscal quarter 1996 over the corresponding period in 1995.
Operating Income
Operating income increased by $234,000 or 22.0% for the first quarter
in 1996 over the corresponding quarter in 1995. The increase was the result
of higher sales volume and reductions in operating expenses as a percentage of
net sales, offset by a slight increase in cost of goods sold.
Interest Income
Interest income decreased by $26,000 or 41.8% in the first quarter in
1996 over the corresponding quarter in 1995. The decrease increase was due to
lower interest rates for short-term liquid investments and decreased investment
principal.
Provision for Income Taxes
The Company's provision for income taxes for fiscal quarter 1996 increased
to $551,000 from $471,000 in the corresponding period in 1995. The effective
tax rate remained constant at 40%.
Net Income
As a result of the factors discussed above, net income for the fiscal
quarter 1996 increased by $120,000 or 17.0% over the corresponding quarter in
1995. Net income per share increased from $0.21 per share to $0.24 per
share.
