World's largest dental-implant maker, also selling clear aligners (ClearCorrect) and dental imaging/CAD-CAM equipment.
World's largest dental-implant maker, also selling clear aligners (ClearCorrect) and dental imaging/CAD-CAM equipment.
Sells implants and the abutments and crowns that go with them to dentists, who tend to stay with the system they were trained on, so a clinic's choice repeats with each patient; premium implants carry the margin, while Neodent in Brazil and Anthogyr in France serve value segments. Clear aligners came with ClearCorrect, bought in 2017.
In one line: The implant+aligner leader, like a combined Align Technology and Dentsply implants unit.
Moat: narrow (brand, switching costs, distribution). Implant systems need dentist training/certification, creating switching costs once a clinic standardizes.
