Dentsply Sirona is one of the world's largest manufacturers of dental equipment and supplies. It is a result of a merger of equals in 2016 between Dentsply International (dental consumables and lab products) and Sirona Dental Systems (technologically advanced dental equipment). The firm's wide portfolio consists of dental consumables, lab products, CAD/CAM and imaging technology, medical devices, and specialty products in orthodontics, endodontics, and implantation. It distributes two-thirds of its dental consumables, technology, and equipment through third-party distributors. The remaining portfolio is either sold to labs and offices through the firm's salesforce or directly to consumers (such as the Byte clear aligner).
