ASTORIA, NY--(Marketwire - August 13, 2009) -
United Treatment Centers, Inc. (PINKSHEETS:
UTRM) announced today the signing of a definitive
joint venture agreement with Pump & Brush Finland Oy, which was a
prerequisite to the market launch of an innovative
and proprietary waterless toothbrush.
The Research and Development department of United Treatment Centers has
completed testing and refining Pump &
Brush Finland Oy's pump system to enhance functionality and reliability.
Under the provisions of the contract,
UTRM will enjoy exclusive rights of Pump & Brush Finland Oy's U.S. Pat. No.
5,918,995 and its foreign counterparts
to manufacture and sell UTRM's manual waterless toothbrush. This license
secures UTRM's global position to be the
sole provider of a product that will revolutionize dental hygiene.
Significantly, UTRM has a patent pending,
which will strengthen the company's growing market footprint in the
multibillion dollar oral Healthcare industry.
Globally, there are over two (2) billion people without access to sanitary
water, and the market for a
toothbrush that does not require potable water is huge. Dental hygiene has
suffered because of this
lack of access, despite the global charities' best efforts. Three (3)
million people annually are victims of
waterborne diseases. In developed countries, the water free toothbrush
markets include the military,
business and leisure travellers and outdoor sport enthusiasts.
Frank Ottaviani, President of United Treatment Centers, said, "The
possibilities and potentials born from the
coupling of Pump & Brush's proven technology, and a 15 year track record
of over $100,000,000 in sales, and United Treatment Centers
Innovative technology is staggering. The toothbrush industry has not seen
many improvements for years. We are
confident that the changes we are bringing to market will be explosive and
that Aquafree will soon be a familiar
household name."
Mr. JP Puurunen of Pump & Brush added, "Both our companies are excited
about this joint venture and are looking forward to presenting
the Aquafree toothbrush to market in the very near future."

UTRM is a Wyoming-based company, with business operations that promote a
revolutionary, patent pending oral care product which will change the way
people perform their daily dental hygiene task -- brushing teeth. UTRM will
oversee out-sourced production of a patent pending consumer product focused
on the $4 billion United States oral care market segment comprised of
toothbrushes and toothpaste. The Waterless Tooth Brush is unique with
significant advantages over existing and traditional toothbrushes: it
cleans and prevents cavities 35% better than traditional toothpaste because
it uses liquid dentifrice, so toothpaste is no longer required to brush,
allowing the user to brush virtually anywhere at any time with no water
needed.
