What is the company background of Bioconcept Australia?

Bioconcept Australia was established by Dr Nick Hocking who has operated a referral-based practice for over 20 years in Macquarie Street, Sydney. He saw that Bioconcept was replicating the high-quality implant that Straumann has been producing for 25 years for a fraction of the price. The manufacturing process is identical to that of Straumann, starting with the same raw material sourced from the same German company, through to the use of Japanese CNC milling machines, followed by the use of exacting cleaning and sterilisation processes identical to Straumann.
