What diplomat dental s.r.o. does

DIPLOMAT DENTAL s.r.o., founded in 1964 and headquartered in Piešťany, Slovakia, manufactures configurable dental units and chairs for dental practices and clinics, including orthodontic use cases. Its two principal lines are Model PRO, a tablet-controlled smart unit operated through the Diplomat Connect iOS application, and Model ONE, offered in carried or lifted configurations. The company also sells accessories and complementary equipment, including handpieces, Chair Pro, instrument carts, stools, Densim Optics microscopes, compressors, and dental lamps; its stated product philosophy emphasizes open platforms and modular, intelligent workflow solutions, while its manufacturing uses high-precision NC and CNC machining, lasers, and robotic welding.

Revenue is generated primarily through hardware sales: units are built to order and individually configured, while exact pricing is quote-based through local dealers rather than publicly disclosed. Diplomat Dental serves business customers through an exclusive B2B country-dealer network spanning Europe, Africa, Asia, the Middle East, Australia, and New Zealand. Dealers handle quotation, installation, service, and maintenance, with local teams trained and certified; the company reports installing thousands of units annually and provides customer training, support, and product servicing.
