What Medentika does

Straumann, operating under the legal entity Institut Straumann AG, is a Swiss-headquartered dental implant manufacturer founded in 1954 and publicly traded on the SIX Swiss Exchange (ticker: STMN). It is the flagship brand of what it describes as the world's largest dental implant manufacturer group, with products available in more than 100 countries and supported by more than 100 offices globally. The company sells directly to dental professionals (general dentists, periodontists, oral surgeons, and prosthodontists) and to dental laboratories, with end patients as a downstream beneficiary segment. Its core product portfolio centers on the Straumann iEXCEL Performance System, which unifies four implant designs (BLX, BLC, TLX, TLC) under a single TorcFit prosthetic connection, alongside ceramic implants, regenerative biomaterials, prosthetic components, and a comprehensive digital ecosystem.

The underlying technology is anchored by proprietary materials and surface science, including the Roxolid® titanium-zirconium alloy and the SLActive® hydrophilic surface, both exclusive to Straumann and clinically supported by peer-reviewed evidence. The Dynamic Bone Management implant design, the VeloDrill™ single drill set across all iEXCEL implants, and modular surgical cassettes reduce treatment complexity and enable immediate protocols even in compromised cases. Digital offerings include the SIRIOS X3 intraoral scanner (computer vision), coDiagnostiX planning software, Falcon dynamic navigation, 3D printing solutions, the AXS platform, the AI-powered Smilecloud smile design tool, and services such as UN!Q custom prosthetics and Smile in a Box. The ITI partnership spanning over four decades provides scientific community access to more than 20,000 implantologists worldwide.

Revenue is generated through direct B2B sales of implants, prosthetics, and digital equipment, complemented by local field sales partners, regional distributor networks, and the Straumann eShop storefront; pricing is not publicly disclosed. Multiple wholly-owned subsidiaries extend the platform into adjacent digital categories: Dental Wings (digital dentistry), CareStack (cloud practice management), and Straumann Signature Midas by SprintRay (3D printing). Certifications include ISO 13485, ISO 14001, and EU MDR compliance, supporting regulatory positioning across mature and emerging markets.
