Sirona had undergone a two stage scientific analysis process and can call itself a "Top Innovator" for the third time.

Today, the company is a global market and technology leader as a supplier of dental equipment, such as CAD/CAM equipment, Xray systems, treatment centres, instruments and hygiene devices. It holds almost 200 international and national patents and, in Bensheim, Germany, has one of the world's largest development and production site of this industry with more than 1,500 employees, including 200 engineers and scientists employed there. "The expertise of our staff and the innovation culture in the company are crucial competitive factors for us," says Executive Vice President and Managing Director Rainer Berthan. "This is why we continually invest in our innovation management and are so happy about this important confirmation of our commitment."
