CJ Medtech, a company specializing in the research and manufacturing of orthopedic implants, is acquiring All Abutment, a company focused on patient-specific custom abutments.

According to CJ Medtech on May 26, All Abutment specializes in the precise processing and production of custom abutments tailored to the patient’s oral structure. The company has produced products with high consistency and precision based on high-precision CNC (computer numerical control) machining technology. In particular, it has strengths in digital manufacturing processes based on intra-oral scanner data and is actively supplying its products to leading dental hospitals, clinics, and dental laboratories in Korea. An abutment is an intermediate component that connects the implant fixture and the final prosthesis, serving as a support structure.

This acquisition is part of CJ Medtech’s strategy to establish integrated capabilities across the entire digital dentistry value chain. In March, CJ Medtech completed the internalization of R&D-centered technology by merging with its subsidiary GDS, which possesses digital implant technology. Now, by acquiring All Abutment, the company has secured an additional production base that covers the design, manufacturing, and supply of custom prosthetics. Through this, CJ Medtech has established a system that enables integrated operation of digital prosthetic solutions across the entire cycle, from design and manufacturing to regulatory approval, quality control, and supply.

Digital dentistry is a field that enhances the precision and efficiency of dental care by utilizing digital technologies such as 3D scanners, CAD·CAM (computer-aided design and manufacturing), and 3D printing. In the abutment market, demand for patient-specific custom products has been steadily increasing. As technologies for manufacturing custom artificial teeth using titanium and zirconia materials advance, companies equipped with precision machining capabilities and digital data-based production processes are expanding their competitiveness.

The signing ceremony was attended by Yoo Hyunseung, CEO of CJ Medtech, and key executives and employees of All Abutment. Both parties shared their expectations for future technological and operational synergy, and announced plans to sequentially introduce a new dimension of dental solutions based on custom prosthetic technology and digital production capabilities.

Yoo Hyunseung, CEO of CJ Medtech, stated, "Digital dentistry is a rapidly evolving field in the global market, dramatically enhancing the precision and efficiency of dental treatment through digital technologies such as intra-oral scanners, CAD·CAM, and 3D printing. With this acquisition of All Abutment, CJ Medtech is building a more complete competitive edge across the entire digital prosthetic process, from planning and design to precision machining, quality control, and distribution. By combining All Abutment’s field-oriented technology with our global quality system, we aim to set a new standard in the patient-specific prosthetic market."
