Dentsply Sirona Inc. is an American dental equipment manufacturer and dental consumables producer that markets its products in over 120 countries. It has factories in 21 countries.[4] The present company is largely the result of a merger in 1993 in which Gendex Corporation acquired Dentsply International Inc. for $590 million.[5]

As an equipment maker, it designs and manufactures laboratory and specialty products relating to dental supplies. With regards to consumable products, it specializes in anesthetics, plaque and gum disease prevention (prophylaxis) and tooth polishers. It also designs and constructs artificial teeth.[6] It has also been cited as a key player in the future-intra oral flat panel sensor market.[7] Because of the income disparity between wealthy and developing nations, the variety of products in demand differs from region to region (and thus subsidiary to subsidiary since many of them are regional).[8]

On August 28, 2022, Dentsply Sirona announced the appointment of Simon D. Campion, formerly Executive Vice President and President of the Interventional segment for BD, as President and Chief Executive Officer and a member of the board.[9] In 2018 a Netherlands-based certification company awarded Dentsply the “Top Employer” certification.[10]

In 2019 the company joined forces with the American Association for Dental Research (AADR) to co-sponsor the Student Competition for Advancing Dental Research and its Application (SCADA). The SCADA aims to bolster students research.[11]

The company was ranked #56 by Forbes as America's Best Midsize Employers 2019.[12]
