As a specialist dental recruiter, I've had the privilege of witnessing firsthand the dynamic landscape of the global industry. It's transforming rapidly with constant innovation, consumer-driven care & tech advancements. To provide a clearer picture, here’s a look at the top 20 by revenue, their leadership and the forces shaping their growth... At the top, Colgate-Palmolive ($19.5B) led by Noel Wallace, dominate the market with its eco-friendly oral care solutions and sustainable initiatives Henry Schein ($12.3B), under CEO Stanley Bergman, continue to lead dental distribution, expanding into emerging markets & consistently investing in digital health tools Haleon ($11.3B) recently spun off from GSK & led by Brian McNamara, is strengthening its position in oral care with well-known brands. Meanwhile, Solventum ($8.2B) is a fast-growing player after their spin off from 3M, focusing on healthcare solutions & led by the hugely experienced Bryan Hanson Align Technology ($3.9B), under Joe Hogan, remain the leader in the clear aligner market, driven by digital treatment innovations. Despite rising competition from Dentsply Sirona ($3.9B), led by CEO Simon Campion, Align’s focus on virtual care has kept it ahead but recent launches from DS are aimed at expanding their digital dentistry portfolio Straumann Group ($2.8B), under Guillaume Daniellot, are the clear leader in premium dental implants & continue to boost their portfolio with shrewd business decisions (see previous). A focus on holistic digital solutions sees Straumann well positioned for continued growth Envista Holdings Corporation ($2.6B) now led by Paul Keel have made significant strides in AI-driven workflows across their diverse portfolio inc. Nobel Biocare, Ormco, Orascoptic, DEXIS, Kerr Corporation & more Oral B ($2.7B) of Procter & Gamble under Jon Moeller continue to innovate with its powered toothbrushes. Carestream Dental ($1.9B) led by Lisa Ashby push forward in digital imaging while Planmeca ($1.2B) under Heikki Kyöstilä are investing in AI-powered 3D imaging to compete globally Ivoclar ($1B) under new leadership with Markus Heinz dominate esthetic restorations with well-respected product. GC Corporation ($958M), under CEO Kiyotaka Nakao focus on high-quality materials. Osstem ($900M) led by Tae-Kwan Eom are a household brand, particularly in Asia, despite facing financial challenges KaVo Dental ($750M) now of Planmeca and steered by Martin Rickert is refocusing on high-end equipment.
