What Versah does
Versah is a dental medical device company founded in 2014 by Dr. Salah Huwais in Jackson, Michigan, that designs, manufactures, and sells the Densah® Bur System, the originator and patented technology behind the Osseodensification bone preparation technique. Unlike conventional dental drilling that excavates bone tissue, Densah® Burs use a proprietary non-excavating flute design that, when rotated counterclockwise at 1000 rpm with irrigation, simultaneously compacts and autografts bone in an outwardly expanding direction to create a consistently cylindrical and densified osteotomy for dental implant placement. The company has developed an extended product line including Universal Densah® Bur Kits (priced $1,720–$3,540), a Densah® Sinus Lift Kit ($1,649), ZGO™ extended-length burs for zygomatic implants ($149–$205 per bur), and a Guided Surgery System ($2,909–$5,145) compatible with C-Guide® sleeves. Densah® Burs are designed for universal compatibility with over 100 dental implant systems from manufacturers including Straumann, Zimmer Biomet, Nobel Biocare, Southern Implants, and Sweden & Martina.
The company sells primarily direct to dental implantologists and periodontists through its e-commerce storefronts (versah.com and versahinternational.com), supported by live client representatives, in-office Densah® consultations, and clinical education delivered through the Osseodensification Academy, which has trained more than 15,000 implantologists worldwide across 9 languages. Revenue is generated through one-time unit sales of kits, individual burs, pilot drills, and accessories rather than recurring subscriptions. The clinical technique is supported by over 60 peer-reviewed scientific publications covering biomechanical, histological, and clinical research categories. In Q1 2026, Versah was acquired by Envista Holdings Corporation (NYSE:NVST), a Fortune 500 dental products company, and continues to operate as a wholly-owned subsidiary under the Versah brand with an installed base of more than 20,000 clinicians globally. Versah holds 11–50 employees and is headquartered at 2000 Spring Arbor Rd., Suite D, Jackson, Michigan.
