TRADITION AND INNOVATION:
UNITED BY VALUES

When Hans Ostner founded ULTRADENT in Munich in 1924, he pursued values that we still are still bound by today: combining tradition and experience with dynamic inventive genius to continually raise technological achievements to new heights. We are still committed to this fundamental principle. But it doesn’t stop there. Continuity, stability and a high focus on value are factors that we pay particular attention to at all levels of the company.

That is why ULTRADENT still develops and manufactures its products in Munich. And our wholehearted convictions are also the reason we have chosen to remain a midsize family company dedicated to the advantages of company-controlled manufacture. With Ludwig Ostner, the founder’s nephew, and his son Ludwig Johann Ostner, ULTRADENT is today headed by business managers from two generations, who unite the best of what craftsmanship has to offer with cutting-edge technology.

Today, the brand stands for comfortable treatment units that are used by dentists, orthodontists, maxillary surgeons and providers of prophylactic care.
