Carestream Dental

Carestream Dental is a dental technology company headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, that provides imaging systems, software, and practice management solutions for general and specialist dental and oral health practices. Its product portfolio includes intraoral and extraoral imaging equipment, CAD/CAM solutions, advanced imaging analysis software, and integrated practice management systems. The company's technology captures approximately two billion images annually, supporting more precise diagnoses, optimized workflows, and improved patient care outcomes.

The company is privately held, classified in Medical Equipment Manufacturing, with a size in the 1,001–5,000 employee range. Its specialties span digital dentistry, intraoral and extraoral imaging, imaging software, intraoral cameras, cloud hosting, SaaS, implant planning, practice management software, and digital dentures. Notable product lines include CS 3D Imaging, CS Imaging, and orthodontic imaging software, with optional add-on clinical modules.

Carestream Dental began as the dental digital business of Carestream Health (the former Eastman Kodak Health Group). It became a freestanding dental technology company focused solely on digital solutions on September 1, 2017, when it was acquired by Clayton, Dubilier & Rice (CD&R) and CareCapital Advisors Limited. The dental X-ray film and anesthetics business were not part of the transaction and remained with Carestream Health, a separate medical-imaging company based in Rochester, New York.

As a company whose offerings center on digital imaging, CAD/CAM, cloud/SaaS, and practice management software, innovations in dental imaging, diagnostics, and workflow technology are directly relevant to its core business and competitive positioning.
