The company designs, develops, manufactures, and distributes a portfolio of dental materials organized into three product lines: Dentistry (Dentística) — including sectional matrix systems (Unimatrix R and Unimatrix S), wedges (anatomic, elastic, reflexive), instruments (Microcut, Contact + Gold, Mandril Versaplus), and finishing and polishing products (Praxis, Optimize, Superfix, Polimax, Diamond Gloss, Fiberglass); Prosthodontics — covering acrylic resins (Resinlay Pattern Photo gel and paste, Resinlay Speed, Resinlay Speed Pattern), reliners (Soft Provisional, Soft Rebase, Cold Liner Rebase), and other prosthetic consumables; and Pediatric Dentistry — including specialized pediatric matrix systems, crowns, and small-sized instruments. TDV also sells combination kits for clinicians (Matrix Kit, Foto Kit, Pediatric Kit) and academic kits for dental schools, and in 2025 launched the SeptoAcessories sub-brand, a 10-product line of finishing and polishing accessories.
The company sells through a multi-tier go-to-market model: directly to dental professionals and via a network of country-specific regional distributors across Latin America (e.g., Muntal in Argentina, Gedesa in Bolivia, MayorDent in Chile, IDU in Colombia, Zeyco in Mexico), with broader international distribution bringing its products to more than 70 countries. Commercial activities are supported by an educational content platform (OdontoWiki), multilingual digital presence (Portuguese, English, Spanish), and participation in major industry events such as IDS in Germany and CIOSP in Brazil. The company holds ISO 13485:2016, ANVISA BPF, and CE Mark certifications, positioning it to serve regulated dental markets across all five continents.
