Vivos Therapeutics (NASDAQ: VVOS), a medical device and technology company that delivers training and a full line of highly effective proprietary oral appliances for the treatment of breathing related sleep disorders, today announced its acquisition of certain U.S. and international patents, product rights and other miscellaneous intellectual property from Advanced Facialdontics LLC (“AFD”), which holds propriety technology on certain FDA 510(k) cleared dental and medical devices. “This acquisition adds important technology and products that immediately open up new markets to us with significant revenue potential,” said Kirk Huntsman, Vivos’ chairman and chief executive officer. “We can now offer dentists and patients a complete line of lower cost products with higher margins alongside our existing Vivos Method treatments to meet whatever clinical needs and financial price points they may require. In this transaction, we have also acquired several U.S. and international patents, some of which were granted in just the past few months that will allow us to preserve and protect our first mover advantages in the U.S. and Canada as well as other international markets. TMD and bruxism are very common, but often difficult to treat. We believe this highly effective technology from AFD is a real breakthrough, with significant applications across many different kinds of existing oral appliances, such as clear aligners, palatal expanders and traditional mandibular advancement devices, as well as our own CARE devices that are part of The Vivos Method.”

About Vivos Therapeutics Inc.
Vivos Therapeutics is a medical technology company focused on developing and commercializing innovative diagnostic and treatment methods for patients suffering from breathing related sleep issues arising from certain dentofacial abnormalities such as mild-to-moderate obstructive sleep apnea (“OSA”) and snoring in adults. The Vivos Method represents the first clinically effective nonsurgical, noninvasive, nonpharmaceutical and cost-effective solution for treating mild to moderate OSA. It has proven effective in approximately 31,000 patients treated worldwide by more than 1,650 trained dentists. The Vivos Method includes the Vivos Complete Airway Repositioning and/or Expansion (“CARE”) appliance therapy and associated protocols that alter the size, shape and position of the soft tissues that comprise a patient’s upper airway and/or palate. The Vivos Method opens airway space and may significantly reduce symptoms and conditions associated with mild-to-moderate OSA, such as lowering Apnea Hypopnea Index scores. Vivos also markets and distributes SleepImage diagnostic technology under its VivoScore program for home sleep testing in adults and children, as well as the Preventive Oral Device(R), known as the POD(R), and the Night Block(TM), each of which are FDA approved treatments for temporomandibular joint dysfunction (“TMD”) and/or bruxism. The Vivos Integrated Practice (“VIP”) program offers dentists training and other value-added services in connection with using The Vivos Method.
