CRDENTIA ANNOUNCES PROMOTIONS OF KEY EXECUTIVES

DALLAS – January 12, 2006 – Crdentia Corp. (OTCBB: CRDE), a leading U.S. provider of healthcare staffing services, today announced the promotions of several of the Company’s executives to Senior Vice President, reporting directly to Crdentia’s Chairman and CEO, James D. Durham. Receiving promotions and new assignments effective immediately are the following:

• Matt Cahillane and Mike Emery will share operating responsibility for Crdentia’s operations in Southeast Michigan; Charlotte, North Carolina; and Birmingham, Alabama.

• Dan Ross will be responsible for Crdentia’s operations in California, Arizona (including Phoenix and Tucson) and Texas (including Houston, Temple, McKinney, Lubbock, Odessa, and the newly restructured Dallas operations).

• Randall Turnbull will be responsible for all special projects and national contracts.

In making the announcement, Mr. Durham said, “In a little over two years since the founding of Crdentia, much has been accomplished. With thirteen offices nationwide and an excellent cadre of employees, we believe we are poised to take advantage of the burgeoning growth opportunities as a consolidator in the highly fragmented healthcare staffing industry. In fact, each of the executives promoted today have come to the Crdentia family from acquisitions—so in addition to businesses, we have also acquired a group of talented managers to help the Company navigate the next phase of its growth.”

In addition, the Company also announced the departure of its former President, Pam Atherton, who has left Crdentia to pursue other interests.

Concluding his remarks, Mr. Durham said, “I also want to thank Pam Atherton for her service to Crdentia. It has been a pleasure working with Pam since the early days of the Company and I wish her well in her future personal and professional endeavors.”

About Crdentia Corp.

Crdentia Corp. is one of the nation’s leading providers of healthcare staffing services. Crdentia seeks to capitalize on an opportunity that currently exists in the healthcare industry by targeting the critical nursing shortage issue. There are many small, private companies that are addressing the rapidly expanding needs of the healthcare industry. Unfortunately, due to their relatively small capitalization, they are unable to maximize their potential, obtain outside capital or expand. By consolidating well-run small private companies into a larger public entity, Crdentia intends to facilitate access to capital, the acquisition of technology, and expanded distribution that, in turn, drive internal growth.
