Pentron

Pentron is a dental consumables and restorative materials company focused on products used by dentists for impression taking, bonding, cements, composites, post-and-core procedures, and temporary restorations. The company traces its roots to 1967 and markets a portfolio that includes brands such as FibreKleer, FibreKor, Build-It, Correct Plus, Simile, Bond-1, Breeze, and TempSpan. Pentron operates as a healthcare company within restorative dentistry rather than a therapeutics developer, so it does not have a biotech-style clinical pipeline. Pentron was acquired by Kerr in 2010 and today functions as part of Kerr Dental, which is an operating company within Envista. Its business is centered on commercially available dental materials, manufacturing, technical support, and distribution through dealer networks.
