German manufacturer of orthodontic implants and skeletal anchorage systems

PSM Medical — About PSM

PSM Medical Solutions (operating as PSM Medical GmbH) is a German medical device manufacturer specializing in orthodontic implants and related instruments. Established in 1993, the company originally focused on implants and instruments for the bony neurosurgical area, before strategically broadening its product range around January 2010 to focus heavily on orthodontics. The name "PSM" stands for Precision Screw Manufacturer, reflecting its origins. It is a family-run business led by Edwin Schmid, with the second generation (Marcel Schmid) now in a managerial role.

The company is based in Gunningen, Germany (Gewerbestrasse 10, 78594 Gunningen), within the broader Tuttlingen region — a renowned global cluster for the medical-device and surgical-instrument industry. Some directories list the headquarters as "Tuttlingen," referring to this surrounding MedTech cluster region.

PSM is a leading manufacturer of skeletal/palatal anchorage solutions for orthodontics. Its flagship is the BENEfit® implant system (launched in 2007), positioned as an industry standard for palatal and skeletal anchorage and for mesialization/distalization. Other offerings include the quattro Temporary Anchorage Device (TAD) systems, the Mentoplate bone-plate system, Hyrax-type expansion appliances, digital solutions, and a range of screws, drills, laboratory components, and instruments. PSM also retains heritage product lines for neurosurgery and serves adjacent fields such as orthopedics.

PSM markets itself as one of the world's most important manufacturers of orthodontic implants, distributing worldwide through a network of regional dealers. Its products appear frequently in peer-reviewed orthodontic research, underscoring an emphasis on combining clinical practice, science, material quality, and engineering.
