Dentsply Sirona has signed a definitive agreement to acquire OraMetrix, which provides 3-D solutions designed to improve the quality and efficiency of orthodontic care. OraMetrix offers a CAD platform developed for dental professionals to deliver consistently predictable orthodontic outcomes. In combination with GAC’s bracket expertise and Dentsply Sirona’s digital technologies, the acquisition will enable Dentsply Sirona to provide a comprehensive orthodontic offering that will include a full-arch clear aligner solution, the companies report.
“This acquisition brings an advanced digital diagnostic and treatment planning system that will provide clinicians the flexibility, speed, and control they need to treat their patients with multiple modalities on a single platform,” said Brad Clatt, group vice president of Dentsply Sirona Orthodontics. “We believe this solution positions us very well for the future as an end-to-end total orthodontic solution provider.”
Among its products and services, OraMetrix offers a software platform that integrates multiple diagnostic media including CBCT, cephalometric, panoramic, optical, and facial data. Following the acquisition, Dentsply Sirona will be able to provide an end-to-end digital workflow with a comprehensive range of devices to enable dental professionals to match their patients’ growing demands for aesthetics and speed of treatment, the company says.
