Dentsply Sirona.

Dentsply Sirona's history page says DENTSPLY International began as the Dentists' Supply Company in 1899 in New York City, and that the company which became Sirona was founded in 1877 in Erlangen, Germany. The companies completed a merger of equals on 29 February 2016. A company release that day, issued from York, Pennsylvania, and Salzburg, said the combination joined a consumables business with an equipment and technology business. The history page says the merged company then had about 16,000 employees, operations in more than 40 countries, and sales in over 150 countries. A 2024 company portrait later says about 15,000 employees, operations in more than 40 countries, and sales in more than 120 countries, with headquarters in Charlotte, North Carolina, and shares on Nasdaq under XRAY.

On 23 May 2019 the board announced that principal executive offices would move from York, Pennsylvania, to Ballantyne Corporate Place in Charlotte, and that the move built on a plan to centralize sales and service and to use the Charlotte Academy. The history page says Siemens Reiniger Werke established a plant in Bensheim, Germany, which remains a production site and the home of a center of innovation. A 2018 note on that page says instrument production for the Midwest brand moved to Bensheim. CEREC is named in the history page's account of the merger year and in the 2024 portrait as a CAD/CAM restoration system, alongside inLab.

The 2024 portrait lists general supplies, CAD/CAM, restoratives, intraoral, panoramic, and 3D imaging, treatment centers, handpieces, hygiene systems, and specialty products in orthodontics, endodontics, and implants. It also says the company employs more than 650 engineers and scientists. Those counts are the portrait's. A treatment center, a CEREC mill, a sensor, and a composite are four purchases. The portrait's phrase about being the largest manufacturer is the company's wording, not a ranking this page repeats as its own finding.

Implant systems sit in the specialty list. They are not the same SKU as a Primescan or a Primemill, which are equipment names dentists associate with the Sirona digital line. Order the connection and the scan body from the implant IFU, and order the mill from the CAD/CAM IFU. The 1899 tooth company and the 1877 Erlangen equipment company explain why one invoice can contain both a denture tooth and an X-ray unit.

Dentsply Sirona suits a practice buying consumables, a treatment center, imaging, or chairside CAD/CAM from the merged company. Chairs and units are on the chair guide. Mills are on the milling machine guide.

Imaging comparisons are the CBCT guide, the panoramic guide, and the sensor guide.

DENTSPLY's 1899 root is supplies. Sirona's root is equipment. The 2016 merger put them on one Nasdaq ticker. A box of composite and a CBCT still have different warranties.

Endodontic motors and handpieces are on the endodontic motor guide and the handpiece guide. Composites are on the universal composite guide.

Use Charlotte as the headquarters announced in May 2019. Older documents say York. Bensheim remains the German production site described on the history page. Ask which site services the serial number.

The portrait reports 2023 revenue of 3.96 billion US dollars. That is a company figure, not a price for a single unit.
