In the opinion of Milestone, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring entries) necessary to present fairly Milestone’s financial position as of September 30, 2005 and the results of its operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004.
 
 
 
The results reported for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations which may be expected for a full year.
 
 
Note 2 – Private Placements
 
 
 
On April 4, 2005 Milestone completed a $2,999,996 private placement of 101,044 Units to accredited investors. Each Unit consisted of 10 shares of Common Stock and two Warrants.  Each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase a share of Common Stock at $4.89 per share through the close of business on February 16, 2009.  I-Bankers Securities, Inc. acted as placement agent for Milestone in this transaction and received a fee of $209,978 and 101,044 Warrants identical in terms to those issued to the investors. Total proceeds to Milestone after commissions and other expenses were $2,730,234.
 
 
 
On June 30, 2005 Milestone completed an $847,960 private placement of 34,000 Units to accredited investors. Each Unit consists of 10 shares of Common Stock and two Warrants.  Each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase a share of Common Stock at $4.89 per share through the close of business on February 16, 2009.  Dynamic Decisions acted as investment adviser to Milestone in this transaction and received a fee of $50,878 and 600 Units, which are substantially the same form as those issued to the investors.  Total proceeds from this private placement, after commissions and other expenses, were $797,054.
 
 
Note 3  - Royalty Receivable:
 
 
 
Royalty receivable represents the royalty due from United Systems, Inc, the licensee of Milestone’s proprietary consumer dental whitening product, which is sold under Milestone’s distributor’s trademark, Ionic White™.  The royalty receivable of $252,842 was collected on November 7, 2005.
 
 
Note 4 - Inventories:
 
 
 
Inventories principally consist of finished goods and component parts stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market.

Note 5 - Basic and diluted net loss per common share:
 
 
 
Milestone presents basic earnings (loss) per common share and, if applicable, diluted earnings per common share pursuant to the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, “Earnings per Share” (“SFAS 128”).  Basic earnings (loss) per common shares is calculated by dividing net income or loss applicable to common stock by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. The calculation of diluted earnings per common share is similar to that of basic earnings per common share, except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if all potentially dilutive common shares, such as those issuable upon the exercise of stock options, warrants, and the conversion of notes payable were issued during the period. Milestone has not included the common shares issuable upon conversion of the outstanding 25,365 preferred shares in the weighted average number of shares outstanding in the computation of basic loss per share because their effect would have been anti-dilutive. This treatment is in accordance with the “two class” method of computing earnings (loss) per share set forth in SFAS 128.
 
 
 
Since Milestone had net losses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, the assumed effects of the exercise of 3,517,809 and 3,249,692 outstanding stock options and warrants, and the conversion of preferred stock into common stock at September 30, 2005 and 2004, were not included as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.
 
 
Note 6 – Significant Customer:
 
 
 
Milestone had one foreign customer who accounted for approximately 12% and 14% of its net sales (excluding royalty income) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, respectively and approximately 24% and 22% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004, respectively.  At September 30, 2005, receivables from this customer were approximately 64% of Milestone’s total accounts receivable.
 
 
Note 7 – Employee Stock Option Plan
 
 
 
As of September 30, 2005, there were 261,167 outstanding options granted under the Milestone 1997 Stock Option Plan and no option grants had been made under the Milestone 2004 Stock Option Plan. Milestone accounts for these plans under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related Interpretations.  No stock-based employee compensation cost is reflected in net loss, as all options granted under these plans had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the dates of grant.  The following table illustrates net loss and net loss per share if Milestone had applied the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to stock-based employee compensation.

The fair value of each option granted is estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions used for the grants in the quarters ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively: dividend yield of 0%; expected volatility of 149.29% and 90%; risk free interest rate of 4.02% and 2.5%; and expected lives of 8 years and 3 years.
 
 
 
During the nine months ended September 30, 2005, Milestone issued 80,000 stock options to employees at an exercise price of $3.27.
 
 
Note 8 – Agreements to Issue Common Stock and Stock Option
 
 
 
          On May 18, 2005, Milestone issued to Ionic White, Inc., its marketing partner for a consumer tooth whitening product, 3-year options to purchase 100,000 shares of Milestone common stock at $4.89 per share.  The options are not exercisable unless the marketing partner purchases at least 2,000,000 starter kits for the registrant’s consumer tooth whitening system during the twelve month period beginning July 1, 2005.  If 2,000,000 starter kits are purchased during that period, options to purchase 10,000 shares become exercisable.  If 2,500,000 starter kits are purchased during that period, options to purchase an aggregate of 50,000 shares become exercisable.  If 3,000,000 starter kits are purchased during that period, options to purchase all 100,000 shares become exercisable.
 
 
 
          Under a previous agreement, Ionic White, Inc., agreed to purchase 500,000 shares of Milestone common stock in quarterly installments of 125,000 shares within 10 days after the end of each of the four fiscal quarters commencing July 1, 2005.  Milestone is not required to sell these shares unless Ionic White has purchased at least 625,000 starter kits in the first quarter, at least 1,250,000 starter kits in the first two quarters and at least 1,875,000 starter kits in the first three quarters.  Further, at Milestone’s option, all shares previously purchased must be returned to Milestone and all monies paid to Milestone returned to Ionic White if it has not purchased an aggregate of at least 3,000,000 starter kits for the twelve-month period ending June 30, 2006. 
 
 
 
          On September 30, 2005 this agreement was amended to defer for an additional quarter the commencement date for Ionic White’s commitment to purchase stock. 
 
 
 
          On August 12, 2005 Milestone engaged a special marketing and sales consultant to aid in the international sale and distribution of CoolBlue™ Wand dental enhancement system, particularly in its applications for professional tooth whitening.  As part of the compensation for a two-year consulting service, Milestone issued 40,000 shares of common stock valued at $100,000 to the consultant. 
 
12

 
 
          In addition, if as a result of the consultant’s efforts, Milestone is able to establish distribution relationships, on terms and conditions satisfactory to Milestone, with one of the four top world-wide distributors of dental products, or other major distributors as are acceptable to Milestone, and Milestone sells such distributors $3,000,000 of product within 18 months commencing August 12, 2005, Milestone will pay the consultant a $20,000 bonus, in shares of Milestone common stock, valued based on the then current market value.  Furthermore, at Milestone’s option, all shares of common stock issued to the consultant must be returned to Milestone if the consultant has not arranged a meeting with a major distributor within a specified period.

ITEM 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation.
 
OVERVIEW
 
          You should read the following discussions of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes to those statements included elsewhere in this Form 10-QSB. This discussion may contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, such as those set forth in our Form 10K-SB for the year ended December 31, 2004.
 
          Milestone has succeeded in improving its liquidity by acquiring the capital necessary to grow our business and seize the market opportunity that our proprietary products have created. During 2004 and continuing through the first three quarters of 2005, we have grown our revenue base both with our existing product line and the introduction of new products. 
 
          Most of our revenues continue to be generated through sales of our CompuDent system and The Wand disposable handpiece used with that system. Revenues have been earned domestically and internationally through sales in more than 25 countries.  While worldwide revenues are growing, domestic CompuDent and handpiece sales have provided an increasingly large portion of our revenues. This is an important metric as it validates the investment made in our domestic sales distribution organization. Additionally, we enjoy significantly higher margins on domestic sales compared to the lower per unit and handpiece margins we receive from our wholesale based international distribution network. We anticipate that this growing base of new customers will generate increased future sales of our disposable handpiece products. We also believe that our ownership of the SafetyWand technology in light of OSHA regulations issued pursuant to recent federal and state government legislation mandating needle stick safety standards positions us to become a leading provider for dentists and other health care professionals in the administration of local anesthesia, thereby providing further revenue growth opportunities.
 
          In late March we launched, through widely broadcast infomercials, our consumer tooth whitening product sold under our distributor’s trademark, Ionic White™.  Our consumer tooth whitening product and the CoolBlue™ Professional Tooth Whitening System, complement our existing product line.  The tooth whitening market is a fast growing dental segment and we believe that it will provide significant additional revenue opportunities. Revenues for the second and third quarters reflect sales of Ionic White™. During the second quarter a competitor launched a confusingly similar tooth whitening product through infomercials and retail distribution.  In April 2004, Milestone commenced an infringement of trade dress action and the defendant has counterclaimed against Milestone for a declaratory judgment of non-infringement.  The introduction of this competitive product has caused our distributor to focus its near-term marketing efforts on retail sales.  Subsequent to the end of the quarter, the defendant brought an action against us and our distributor to enjoin alleged false advertising claims.  On October 31, 2005, we entered into a non-monetary Stipulation and Order which: a) dismissed with prejudice our infringement of trade dress claims, and b) dismissed with prejudice the false advertising claims filed by the competitor against us and others involving the Ionic White tooth-whitening product, and the distributor of the Ionic White product agreed to remove certain claims from the packaging of the product.
 
          Selling, general and administrative expenses for the third quarter increased from last year, reflecting our continuing enhancement of our domestic dental sales capability and increased marketing and promotional efforts, including trade show appearances, for our dental products. In August, we launched a consumer focused marketing campaign through radio advertising in a test market. The increase also reflects our continuing efforts to complete development of, and find marketing partners for, medical devices using our advanced technology, particularly our CompuFlo™ syringe pump technology.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
 
 
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.  On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to accounts receivable, inventories, stock based compensation and contingencies.  We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.  Actual results may differ from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
 
 
Inventory
 
 
 
Inventories principally consist of finished goods and component parts stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market.
 
 
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
 
 
 
We review long-lived assets for impairment whenever circumstances and situations change such that there is an indication that the carrying amounts may not be recovered.
 
 
Revenue Recognition
 
 
 
Revenue is recognized when title passes at the time of shipment and collectibility based on a sales arrangement and the agreed upon price is reasonably assured.
 
Results of Operations
 
              The consolidated results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 reflect growth of our user base and the initial additional expenditures necessary to further expand our customer base both domestically and abroad.
 
The following table sets forth, for the periods presented, statement of operations data as a percentage of revenues.  The trends suggested by this table may not be indicative of future operating results.

Three Months ended September 30, 2005 compared to three months ended September 30, 2004
 
          Total revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004 were $1,820,224 (product sales of $1,567,382 and royalty income of $252,842) and $1,110,043, respectively. The amount of $252,842 or 14% of total revenues is royalty income from granting United Systems Inc. a license to manufacture, market, and sublicense the Ionic White™ to the consumer market.  The $457,339 or 41% increase in net product sales is primarily related to a 134% or $209,347 increase in domestic CompuDent® sales and the increase in handpiece sales of $319,136, offset by a decrease of $101,926 or 51% in international units sales. This increase shows the effect of our investment in our domestic sales force and marketing initiatives while maintaining a strong presence internationally. Domestic handpiece sales increased $161,960 or 28%, while international handpiece sales increased by $157,176 or 135%. This is the result of innovative domestic sales programs where handpieces are bundled with CompuDent® units at the point of sale as well as the success of the bonded handpiece in international markets.  We believe that this will ultimately result in a growing monthly order for handpieces as the initial supply runs out.
 
          For the three months ended September 30, 2005, Milestone generated a gross profit of $1,146,457 or 63% as compared to a gross profit of $546,313 or 49% for the three months ended September 30, 2004. Excluding the net royalty income of $222,501, improvement in gross profit was due to higher domestic sales in this period, which has higher profit margins than international sales.
 
          Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004 were $1,738,286 and $1,608,176, respectively.  The $130,110 or 8% increase is attributable primarily to Milestone’s continued execution of its strategy to develop our domestic sales force and distribution capacity.  Sales headcount increased from 4 managers, 4 inside sales representatives, 9 sales support representatives, and 8 independent contractors at September 30, 2004 to 2 sales managers, 20 inside sales representatives, 3 sales support representatives, and 7 independent contractors at September 30, 2005.  Accordingly, hiring and related employee expenses including sales commissions increased by $102,074 or 16%.  Selling, marketing and advertising expenses including related travel and tradeshows increased by $96,234 or 77%.  This reflects our aggressive marketing strategy to expand the domestic markets.  Legal fees increased by $89,514 or 67% primarily because of the litigation expenses related to the action against the competitor to the Ionic White™ .  Consulting expense increased by $48,013 or 200% due to the engagement of several consultants for market development services.
 
17

 
          Research and development expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004 were $53,678 and $41,679, respectively. These costs are associated with the continued development of our CoolBlue™ Tooth Whitening Systems and CompuFlo™ products, and our consumer tooth whitening product sold under our distributor’s Ionic White™ trademark.
 
          Interest income of $33,132 was earned in the three months ended September 30, 2005 compared to $23,942 earned for the same period of the prior year due to increased average cash balances.
 
          There was no interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2005 compared to interest expense of $3,576 for the three months ended September 30, 2004. The difference is attributable to the completion of the amortization of debt discount and deferred financing costs in 2004.
 
          Net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004 was $612,375 and $1,083,176, respectively.  The decrease of $470,801 or 43% is primarily because of the increase in total revenue, which is moderately offset by the increase in operating expenses.

          Total revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004 were $4,954,068 and $3,392,288, respectively.  The 2005 total revenues include product sales of $4,482,016 and royalty income of $472,052.  Total revenues increased by $1,561,780 or 46%.  Contributing to this increase was a $638,358 or 148% increase in domestic sales of CompuDent® units.
 
          Gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004 was $3,000,686 or 61% and $1,512,874 or 45%, respectively.  The $1,487,812 or 98% increase in gross profit was due principally to an increase in sales of domestic CompuDent® units which has higher profit margins than international sales, as well as the net royalty income generated by sales of Ionic White™ consumer whitening products and the effect of a $101,608 inventory valuation write down in 2004 which did not recur in the 2005 period.
 
          Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004 were $5,194,541 and $3,804,961, respectively. The increase of $1,389,580 or 37% in these expenses was anticipated and is consistent with management’s stated strategy of investing in revenue generating areas of the business. Contributing to the increase was hiring and employee related expenses related to the development of Milestone’s national sales force which will benefit Milestone with additional revenues. Legal fees increased by $170,328 or 46% primarily because of the litigation expenses related to the action against the competitor to the Ionic White™ .  The increase of $52,582 or 21% in accounting fees was essentially a result of requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Professional fees related to consulting services and investor relations increased by $181,936 or 78% primarily related to the vested portion of stock options granted to outside consultants and the engagement of several outside consultants for marketing services.   Selling, marketing and advertising expenses including related travel and tradeshows increased by $235,991 or 90%.  This reflects our aggressive marketing strategy to expand the domestic markets. 
 
          Research and development expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004 were $155,067 and $135,300, respectively.  These costs are associated with the continued development of our CoolBlue™ Tooth Whitening Systems and CompuFlo™ products and our consumer tooth whitening product sold under our distributor’s Ionic White™ trademark.
 
          Interest income of $67,814 was earned for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 compared to $64,952 interest income for the same period of the prior year.  This difference was due to the increased average cash balances.
 
          There was no interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 compared to interest expense of $67,213 for the nine months ended September 30, 2004. The difference is attributable to the extinguishment of debt related to the February 2004 equity placement.
 
          For the reasons explained above, net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 decreased by $148,540 or 6% from the net loss for the nine month period ended September 30, 2004.  The difference is primarily a result of the increase in total revenue which is partially offset by the increase in operating expenses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
          Milestone incurred net losses of approximately $2,281,000 and $2,430,000 and negative cash flows from operating activities of approximately $2,645,000 and $3,196,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively.  Milestone improved its liquidity position with the private placement of Units completed in April, and June, 2005, as discussed below.  We have maintained our net worth at $6,000,000 for the three consecutive quarters ended September 30, 2005.  On August 23, 2005, we announced that we had received notice from the American Stock Exchange that we had regained compliance with all continued listing requirements.   The American Stock Exchange has removed the special symbol indicating that we were below continued listing standards, although it will continue to monitor our compliance with continued listing standards.  We will continue to seek new sources of equity funding. 
 
Private Placements
 
          On April 4, 2005 Milestone completed a $2,999,996 private placement of 101,044 Units to accredited investors. Each Unit consisted of 10 shares of Common Stock and two Warrants.  Each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase a share of Common Stock at $4.89 per share through the close of business on February 16, 2009. I-Bankers Securities, Inc. acted as Placement Agent for Milestone in this transaction and received a fee of $209,978 and 101,044 Warrants identical in terms to those issued to the investors.  The Units, which are restricted securities and bear a restrictive legend, are subject to stop transfer restrictions.  Total proceeds to Milestone after commissions and other expenses were $2,730,234.
 
          On June 30, 2005 Milestone completed an $847,960 private placement of 34,000 Units. Each Unit consists of 10 shares of Common Stock and two Warrants.  Each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase a share of Common Stock at $4.89 per share through the close of business on February 16, 2009.  Dynamic Decisions acted as Placement Agent for Milestone in this transaction and received a fee of $50,878 and 600 Units, which are substantially the same form as those issued to the investors.  Total proceeds from this private placement, after commissions and other expenses, were $797,054.
 
Cash flow results
 
          As of September 30, 2005, Milestone had cash and cash equivalents of $3,651,943 and working capital of $5,463,805.
 
          For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, Milestone’s net cash used in operating activities was $2,644,883. This was attributable to a net loss of $2,281,108 adjusted for noncash items totaling $523,175 and an increase in operating assets net of operating liabilities of $886,950.
 
          For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, Milestone used $272,517 in investing activities. This was primarily attributable to the purchase of patent rights for $145,000and $99,602 of legal fees related to new patent applications.  Capital expenditures of $21,552 were primarily for the purchase of molds and tooling for new products.
 
          For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, Milestone generated $3,528,037 from financing activities relating to the private placements discussed above and an employee option exercise.
 
          Management believes that it has sufficient resources to meet its obligations over the next twelve months.
