7. EARNINGS PER SHARE:

    During 1997, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards

outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share (Diluted EPS) include
the dilutive effect of stock options, if any, using the treasury stock method.
For the third quarter ended September 30,1998, the weighted average shares
outstanding during the period of 6,772,796, used for Basic EPS, was increased by
the dilutive impact of stock options of 35,412, for a total of 6,808,208 shares
used for Diluted EPS. For the nine months ended September 30,1998, the weighted
average shares outstanding during the period of 6,759,060, used for Basic EPS,
was increased by the dilutive impact of stock options of 48,558, for a total of
6,807,618 shares used for Diluted EPS.

     Assuming the Company's revolving line of credit and long-term borrowings
were retired as of January 1, 1997, supplementary earnings per share (unaudited)
would be $.21 and $.58 for the three months ended September 30, 1997 and the
nine months ended September 30, 1997, respectively, reflecting the elimination
of interest expense, net of income taxes. Supplementary earnings per share
assumes weighted average shares outstanding (pre-public) plus shares
representing those shares of common stock sold at the initial public offering
price, the application of the net proceeds therefrom sufficient to retire the
average outstanding borrowings for the three months ended September 30, 1997 and
the nine months ended September 30, 1997.


9. RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS:

In connection with the acquisition of Denticator on July 22, 1996,an employment
agreement (the Agreement) with Denticator's President and Chief Executive
Officer (the Individual) was executed. The Agreement provided for the delivery
of common stock worth $800.On April 6,1998, the Company agreed to an amendment
(the Amendment) to the Agreement. The Amendment required the Company to pay cash
in lieu of common stock in the amount of $800 on July 22, 1998 to the Individual
if the Individual was employed by the Company on that date. On July 22, 1998,
the Company made the required cash payment to the Individual. The Company
accrued the $800 liability evenly over the two year period and recorded $24 and
$100 of compensation expense for the quarters ended September 30, 1998 and
September 30,1997, respectively. The Company recorded $224 and $300 of

compensation expense for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and September
30, 1997, respectively. The Agreement provides for a base annual salary of $120,
and the Individual has agreed not to compete with the Company for a period of
two years after expiration or termination of the Agreement.


10. CONTINGENCIES:

    On August 29, 1998, two former employees of Young Dental and a corporation
formed by them (the "Adverse Parties") entered into a Settlement Agreement
("Agreement") with Young Dental resolving all issues raised in the litigation
filed by the Adverse Parties in the Circuit Court for the City of St. Louis,
Missouri described in prior reports filed by the Company with the Securities and
Exchange Commission. The litigation has been dismissed with no material effect
on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

    In September, 1998 the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") recalculated the
federal income tax deficiencies related to the federal income tax returns of
Lorvic Holdings, Inc. ("Lorvic") for the years ended March 31, 1992 through 1995
based upon the United States Tax Court's ("Court") findings and opinion filed in
August, 1998. In accordance with the stock purchase agreement pursuant to which
the Company acquired Lorvic in May 1995, the previous stockholders of Lorvic
were responsible for the settlement of this matter to the extent of amounts held
in an escrow fund. The escrowed amounts were sufficient to satisfy these
deficiencies in full for all affected years; the deficiencies will have no
adverse effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.


11. ACCOUNTING STANDARD NOT IMPLEMENTED:

In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS 133"), which requires that all derivatives be
recognized as either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial
position at fair value. The adoption of SFAS 133 is not expected to have a
material effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.




Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
        of Operations

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1998 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER
30, 1997

NET SALES
         Net sales increased $3.2 million, or 52.7%, to $9.3 million in 1998
from $6.1 million in 1997. The increase was the result primarily of the
inclusion of Panoramic sales and additionally of the sales growth from the base
business of prophy products.

GROSS PROFIT
         Gross profit increased $1.2 million, or 32.6%, to $5.0 million in 1998
from $3.8 million in 1997. Gross profit benefited from the inclusion of
Panoramic and the increased prophy product sales. Gross margin decreased to
53.6% of net sales in 1998 from 61.8% in 1997. The Company's gross margin
decreased as a result of sales of Panoramic products, which carry lower gross
margins, and the increased costs incurred in the transfer and consolidation of
the majority of the manufacturing of the Denticator product line from California
to Missouri.

SELLING, GENERAL, AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
         SG&A expenses increased $776,000, or 42.8%, to $2.6 million in 1998
from $1.8 million in 1997. As a percent of net sales, SG&A expenses decreased to
27.9% in 1998 from 29.8% in 1997. SG&A expenses increased primarily due to the
inclusion of expenses of Panoramic.

<PAGE>   9


INCOME FROM OPERATIONS
         Income from operations increased $447,000 or 23.0%, to $2.4 million in
1998 from $1.9 million in 1997.

INTEREST EXPENSE
         Interest expense decreased $293,000 to $0 in 1998 from $293,000 in
1997. The decrease was due to the retirement of all of the Company's bank debt
with the net proceeds of the Company's initial public offering in November,
1997.

OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE)
         Other income (expense) increased $42,000 to $57,000 in 1998 from
$15,000 in 1997 primarily due to interest income in the 1998 quarter.

PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES
         Provision for income taxes increased $303,000 for 1998 to $941,000 from
$638,000 for 1997 as a result of a 47% increase in the income before income
taxes versus the year earlier period.


NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1998 COMPARED TO NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30,
1997

NET SALES
         Net sales increased $7.4 million, or 40.7%, to $25.6 million in 1998
from $18.2 million in 1997. The increase was primarily attributable to the
inclusion of sales of Panoramic (acquired on February 27, 1998), and the
remaining increase was the result of higher sales of prophy products.

GROSS PROFIT
         Gross profit increased $3.3 million, or 30.9%, to $14.2 million in 1998
from $10.9 million in 1997. Gross profit benefited from the acquisition of
Panoramic and from the increased prophy product sales. Gross margin decreased to
55.5% of net sales in 1998 from 59.7% in 1997. The Company's gross margin
decreased as a result of the inclusion of sales of Panoramic products, which
carry lower gross margins.The increased costs incurred in the transfer and
consolidation of the majority of the manufacturing of the Denticator product
line from California to Missouri as well as the attainment of ISO certification
for Young Dental's manufacturing facilities in Missouri and Texas and CE Mark
approval for its prophy products contributed to the gross margin decrease.

SELLING, GENERAL, AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
         SG&A expenses increased $2.0 million, or 36.2%, to $7.5 million in 1998
from $5.5 million in 1997. As a percent of net sales, SG&A expenses decreased to
29.2% in 1998 from 30.1% in 1997. SG&A expenses increased primarily due to the
inclusion of expenses of Panoramic.

INCOME FROM OPERATIONS

         Income from operations increased $1.3 million or 25.4%, to $6.7 million
in 1998 from $5.4 million in 1997.

INTEREST EXPENSE
         Interest expense decreased $895,000 to $0 in 1998 from $895,000 in
1997. The decrease was due to the retirement of all of the Company's bank debt
with the net proceeds of the Company's initial public offering in November,
1997.

OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE)
         Other income (expense) increased $245,000 to $262,000 in 1998 from
$17,000 in 1997 primarily due to interest income and gains on the disposal of
assets versus losses on disposal of assets in the year earlier period.

PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES
         Provision for income taxes increased $1.0 million for 1998 to $2.7
million from $1.7 million for 1997 as a result of a 56% increase in the income
before income taxes versus the year earlier period and an effective tax rate of
38.4% versus 38.1% in the year earlier period.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     On February 27, 1998, the Company acquired the net assets of Panoramic in
Fort Wayne, Indiana. The Company paid approximately $13.9 million in cash plus
$1.0 million (62,500 shares) of its common stock. The purchase price was
financed principally through cash from the remaining net proceeds of the
Company's initial public offering.

    Historically, the Company has financed its operations primarily through cash
flow from operating activities and, to a lesser extent, through borrowings under
its credit facilities. Net cash flow from operating activities was $4.5 million
for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 compared to $3.0 million for the
nine months ended September 30, 1997. Capital expenditures for property, plant
and equipment were $920,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 in line
with the Company's estimates for the year. Consistent with the Company's
historical capital expenditures, future capital expenditures are expected to
include injection molding equipment, computer numeric controlled equipment and
upgrades to production machinery and to the Company's information systems.

    On August 29, 1998, two former employees of Young Dental and a corporation
formed by them (the "Adverse Parties") entered into a Settlement Agreement
("Agreement") with Young Dental resolving all issues raised in the litigation
filed by the Adverse Parties in the Circuit Court for the City of St. Louis,
Missouri described in prior reports filed by the Company with the Securities and
Exchange Commission. The litigation has been dismissed with no material effect
on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

    In September, 1998 the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") recalculated the
federal income tax deficiencies related to the federal income tax returns of
Lorvic Holdings, Inc. ("Lorvic") for the years ended March 31, 1992 through 1995
based upon the United States Tax Court's ("Court") findings and opinion filed in
August, 1998. In accordance with the stock purchase agreement pursuant to which
the Company acquired Lorvic in May 1995, the previous stockholders of Lorvic
were responsible for the settlement of this matter to the extent of amounts held
in an escrow fund. The escrowed amounts were sufficient to satisfy these
deficiencies in full for all affected years; the deficiencies will have no
adverse effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.



RECENT FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS BOARD STATEMENT

In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS 133"), which requires that all derivatives be
recognized as either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial
position at fair value. The adoption of SFAS 133 is not expected to have a
material effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.



YEAR 2000 ISSUE

Many computer systems are currently based on storing two digits to identify the
year of a transaction (for example, "98" for 1998), rather than a full four
digits, and are not programmed to consider the start of a new century.
Significant processing inaccuracies and even inoperability could result in the
year 2000 and thereafter. In addition, systems not typically regarded as
computer systems but used in manufacturing or administrative functions may
contain embedded technology so that these systems would be unable to interpret
the calendar year 2000 appropriately.





                                       10


<PAGE>   11


With the objective of minimizing the risk of Year 2000 issues, the Company set 
up a program to identify the operating systems software, applications software 
and hardware on its information technology ("IT") computer network; identify 
the software and equipment of its non-IT systems; and address compliance of its 
key business partners. The identification of the IT and non-IT systems is 
complete and the assessment for compliance and any remediation of 
non-compliance were and are being conducted simultaneously.

With respect to the IT systems, the mainframe operating system and the 
accompanying business critical applications have been patched and letter 
certified as Year 2000 compliant by the Company's hardware and software 
vendors. The personal computers ("PC's"), workstations, servers and PC business 
applications have been patched and tested per the vendors' instructions and are 
Year 2000 compliant.  Software assessed as not Year 2000 compliant was 
developed for the Company as part of a customer data base system. The Company 
is currently working with a vendor to remediate this non-compliance and 
anticipates that reprogramming or replacement will result in Year 2000 
compliance by the second quarter of 1999. With respect to the non-IT systems, 
the Company has obtained written certification of Year 2000 compliance from its 
various administrative and manufacturing equipment vendors.

In most cases, existing IT and non-IT software was already Year 2000 compliant 
or was patched with upgraded versions supplied by the vendors. In a few 
instances, software was replaced with more current, compliant systems. Due to 
the nature of the Year 2000 problem, work in the IT and non-IT areas may 
continue until the Year 2000 if the Company's vendors continue to upgrade their 
systems with software patches to be installed and tested by the Company.

With respect to key business partners, the Company is in the process of 
compiling a compliance list based on the receipt of surveys the Company sent to 
its business partners. The Company is continuing to survey its partners and 
anticipates completion of this process by the end of the second quarter of
1999. 

There has not been a material adverse impact on the Company's operations or 
financial condition as a result of IT and non-IT projects caused by the Year 
2000 issue. The Company has annual maintenance contracts with most of its IT 
and non-IT vendors, and external costs in the form of vendor software upgrades, 
patches and testing programs were covered under these contracts. Current year 
costs have been expensed as those costs have been incurred. The remaining 
internal and external costs are not expected to materially exceed normal 
operating expenses, and the Company has not deferred any significant capital 
expenditures due to its Year 2000 efforts.

The Company has not had an independent review of its Year 2000 risk. The 
majority of its IT and non-IT systems have already been certified in writing as 
Year 2000 compliant. The remediation efforts relative to the customer data base 
software remain on schedule. A reasonably possible worst case scenario would be 
non-compliance of this software and ultimate replacement that would not have a 
material adverse impact on the Company's operations or financial condition. 
With respect to its key business partners, there can be no assurance of their 
compliance by the end of 1999. A reasonably possible worst case scenario might 
include these partners being non-compliant which could result in a material 
disruption of the Company's operations.

The Company has not developed a formal contingency plan for non-compliance of 
its customer data base software and of its business partners. The Company will 
continue to closely monitor and assess the progress towards compliance in these 
areas and will develop a contingency plan by the end of the second quarter of 
1999 in the event any areas remain non-compliant.
