                   Re: Milestone Scientific Inc. ("Milestone")
                    Registration No. 333-127728 on Form S-3/A


Gentlemen:

         Milestone hereby requests that the above Registration Statement become
effective at 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time, on February 14, 2006, or as soon thereafter
as practicable.

         Milestone Scientific acknowledges that:

                o    Should the Commission or the staff, acting pursuant to
                     delegated authority, declare the filing effective, it does
                     not foreclose the Commission from taking any action with
                     respect to the filing;

                o    The action of the Commission or the staff, acting pursuant
                     to delegated authority, in declaring the filing effective,
                     does not relieve the company from its full responsibility
                     for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in the
                     filing; and

                o    The company may not assert staff comments and the
                     declaration of effectiveness as defense in any proceeding
                     initiated by the Commission or any person under the federal
                     securities laws of the United States.

         Milestone also represents that its financial statements for the year
ended December 31, 2005 have not yet been prepared or been subjected to
financial review and audit by its independent auditors and accountants, but
represents that it expects that results for the Fourth Quarter will not be
materially different from results for the nine months ended September 30, 2005.


                                     Milestone Scientific Inc.
