MISSION
AS A LEADER IN ENDODONTICS AND TRUSTED PARTNER IN DENTAL SURGERY, WE SHAPE
THE FUTURE BY DELIVERING INNOVATIVE SOLUTIONS AND EDUCATION PROGRAMS THAT
ARE BEST IN CLASS. WE PROVIDE PRACTITIONERS WITH MORE EFFECTIVE AND SIMPLER
CLINICAL PROCEDURES THAT OFFER THE SAFEST TREATMENT OPTION FOR PATIENTS
WORLDWIDE. Dentsply Maillefer – Strongly Rooted in Dentistry Dentsply Maillefer is considered
today as the global leader in the treatment of root canals and surgical drills for dental implantology
with experience in dentistry that ranges back for more than 100 years. We design and manufacture
our own, tailor-made equipment that enables us to produce close to one million products a day at
our three production sites in Ballaigues, Switzerland. Since 1995, we have been a part of the global
group Dentsply International Inc., the world leader in dental solutions in more than 120 countries.
At Dentsply Maillefer, we provide access to therapy for dental professionals worldwide with
state-of-the-art endodontic solutions that are advanced, specialized and trusted. Through first-hand
experience in the field of dentistry, as well as the assurance of quality as a result of in-house
production, we are able to offer dental professionals unique solutions that they can count on. This
expertise would not have been possible if it weren’t for the work of the early pioneer, Auguste
Maillefer. It was in 1889 that Auguste Maillefer, dentist and former watchmaker, began
manufacturing his own instruments to better suit his needs and the needs of his colleagues, which
marked the starting point to set a higher standard of care for patients. He was inspired due to a
rather quick realization that the instruments that were being used at the time were not being
created with an actual understanding of dentistry. By combining his technical expertise and clinical
experience, he was able to be one step ahead of other producers by designing highly innovative and
technologically advanced instruments, for both himself and his colleagues. Today at Dentsply
Maillefer, we continue to incorporate Auguste Maillefer’s expertise in everything we do. Since the
first canal exploration in 1889, Auguste Maillefer has molded our knowledge and continues to
inspire how we think about endodontic solutions.
We know endodontics
If there is one thing we know, it’s endodontics. By focusing all of our resources on improving
endodontic treatment, we are able to further specialize in this domain and therefore attest our
competence of excellence in what we do. From science, to engineering to the actual product,
Dentsply Maillefer is with you, every step of the way. The term endodontics originates from the
Greek word, Endo “inside” and odons “tooth”. The area of the tooth concerned is the pulp and the
tissues surrounding the root. Endodontic treatment becomes necessary when the pulp of the tooth
becomes inflamed or infected. This can occur as a result of deep decay, repeated dental procedures,
crack or chip, or an injury/accident. If pulp inflammation or infection is left untreated, it can cause
pain and/or lead to an abscess.
VALUES
QUALITY AND PRECISION ARE NOT OUR ONLY VALUES. SINCE 1975, WE HAVE BEEN USING
RECYCLED HEAT TO FILTER OIL IN AN EFFORT TO FOSTER MORE SUSTAINABLE PRODUCTION.
Beyond the manufacturing process – a dedication to quality Throughout the years, we have made it
our priority to design state-of-the-art instruments to perform endodontic solutions. Our team is
composed of approximately 900 employees working across a wide spectrum of 120 different fields of
expertise, ranging from engineering to global sales and marketing, to ensure that the utmost
standard of quality is achieved and commercialized worldwide. Each step of the manufacturing
process is carefully monitored and improved on a daily basis to continuously achieve better
outcomes. Quality and precision are not our only values. Since 1975, we have been using recycled

heat to filter oil in an effort to foster a more sustainable production. This exemplifies not only our
commitment to adopting durable and sustainable systems, but also our concern to preserve the
environment. Each manufacturing stage that creates a PROTAPER NEXT® file utilizes a different
skill set. This means that, for every operation, there are approximately 10 different fields of
expertise working together to create the best possible product. Each year we launch 2-3 products,
which are entirely conceived on site, from the original design to the final product. In order to keep
the production process of dental instruments on site, Dentsply Maillefer has its own engineering
team that develops customized machines. The team is composed of 40 employees, which includes
highly experienced engineers that build sophisticated production systems with in-line quality control.
These machines are significantly more advanced than the others that are available on the market,
due to the fact that they are designed specifically for the production of dental instruments. With its
own machine production, the manufacturing process know-how stays in house. The result? A
competitive advantage for Dentsply Maillefer’s customers.
Trust
Any successful business relationship is based on trust. We trust you to help us make better, more
informed choices to improve our products to optimize your treatments. Conversely, you trust us to
deliver high quality instruments, with the qualified training and advanced education that goes with it.
Together, through a partnership based on trust, we can deliver unique treatments for endodontic
solutions. Why should you trust us? Dentsply Maillefer has an exclusive network of key opinion
leaders and universities, who together support, share and exchange the most relevant information to
continuously discover better ways to enhance endodontic treatments. However, our success is not
based solely on the support of our network. We believe that clinical education plays an essential role
in therapy development, and are therefore dedicated to advancing endodontic care through training
and educative practices. Our training center, situated in Ballaigues, has helped form some of the
most prominent dentists in the profession. Whether you are a student, just graduated from your
studies, or are interested in finding out about new technologies and optimized operational methods,
Dentsply Maillefer has a solution for you to further professional goals.

UN PEU D'HISTOIRE
C’est en 1889 qu’Auguste Maillefer, horloger puis médecin-dentiste fonde la société qui portera son
nom et qui produira les premiers instruments dentaires que lui-même utilisera dans sa pratique
quotidienne et fera connaître à ses amis dentistes. Grâce à la qualité et au caractère innovant de ses
produits – par exemple l’instrumentation endocanalaire en nickel titane – mais aussi en devenant un
fournisseur de solutions globales pour le traitement endodontique, la société Maillefer est passée du
statut de pionnier à celui de leader mondial de son marché. Cette évolution a été favorisée par la
reprise de son capital en 1995 par le groupe Dentsply, qui, notamment par la taille de son réseau de
distribution a permis aux dentistes du monde entier d’avoir accès aux produits Maillefer.
QUELQUES CHIFFRES
Aujourd’hui, Dentsply Maillefer c’est: • 750 collaborateurs • Un chiffre d’affaires de 216 millions
CHF • Une croissance annuelle supérieure à 10% • 95% des ventes à l’exportation, 50% de ventes
hors Europe • Plus de 500 000 instruments par jour • Au moins 6 nouveaux produits par an • Une
bourse à la formation des futurs dentistes à l’endodontie dans 18 pays à ce jour • Plusieurs
symposiums internationaux (Asie, Amérique Latine et Europe) annuels faisant le point sur les
solutions et techniques les plus récentes en endodontie • Un département médical (fabrication
d’instruments de type forets principalement utilisés en chirurgie orthopédique et en neurochirurgie
ainsi qu’en implantologie dentaire)
L'AVENIR
C’est d’abord relever le défi des soins dentaires de notre nouveau millénaire: • Dans les pays
développés le besoin croissant d’une population toujours plus âgée, encouragée à préserver ses
dents naturelles • Dans les pays émergents, le besoin d’accéder à des soins dentaires de qualité
dans un contexte socio-économique contraignant En dehors des produits per se, l’innovation,
représentée par les nouvelles techniques, les nouveaux matériaux et l’établissement de nouvelles
relations avec les professionnels dentaires nous permettra de mettre à la disposition des dentistes
non plus seulement des instruments, mais surtout des modes opératoires performants, optimisés,
standardisés et donc reproductibles.

UNTERNEHMENSGESCHICHTE
Im Jahr 1889 gründete der Zahnarzt und vormalige Uhrmacher Auguste Maillefer die Firma, die bis
heute seinen Namen trägt, und begann mit der Herstellung zahnärztlicher Instrumente, die er und
seine Kollegen dann in ihrer täglichen Praxis verwendeten. Als Anbieter von hochwertigen und
technisch innovativen Produkten, z.B. endodontischen Instrumenten aus Nickel-Titan, sowie von
Komplettlösungen für Wurzelkanalbehandlungen hat sich Maillefer mittlerweile vom Pionier zum
weltweiten Marktführer in seiner Branche entwickelt. Ein weiteres Kapitel in dieser
Erfolgsgeschichte war die Übernahme durch die Dentsply Gruppe im Jahr 1995. Dank des
umfangreichen Vertriebsnetzes von Dentsply sind die Produkte von Maillefer nun Zahnärzten in
allen Teilen der Welt zugänglich.

STORIA DELL'AZIENDA
Nel 1889, Auguste Maillefer, produttore di orologi e poi dentista, fondò l’Azienda che porta il suo
nome e iniziò la produzione dei primi strumenti odontoiatrici che lui e i suoi amici dentisti
utilizzavano nella loro professione. Grazie alla qualità e all’innovazione tecnica dei suoi prodotti, per
esempio gli strumenti in nichel titanio, e diventando un fornitore di soluzioni globali per il
trattamento endodontico, l’azienda Maillefer è passata dallo stato di pioniere a quello di leader
mondiale nel proprio settore. Questa evoluzione fece un’ulteriore passo avanti quando l’azienda
venne rilevata nel 1995 dal gruppo Dentsply che, data la dimensione della sua rete di distribuzione,
ha permesso a tutti i dentisti di tutto il mondo di avere accesso ai prodotti Maillefer.
MAILLEFER IN CIFRE
Attualmente, Dentsply Maillefer ha: • 750 partner • Un fatturato di 216 milioni di CHF • Una
crescita annuale maggiore del 10% • 95% di vendite per esportazione, 50% delle vendite fuori
dall’Europa • Almeno 6 nuovi prodotti all’anno • Più di 500’000 strumenti prodotti al giorno • Un
programma di formazione per futuri dentisti finora in 18 paesi • Diversi simposi internazionali
all’anno (Asia, America Latina e Europa) che mettono in evidenza le tecniche e le soluzioni più
recenti in endodonzia • Un reparto medicale (produzione di strumenti di fresatura usati
principalmente in chirurgia ortopedica e neurochirurgia, nonché per gli impianti dentali)
IL FUTURO
Le tendenze del variare delle necessità della salute orale nel nuovo millennio: • Nei paesi sviluppati
– la crescente crescita della popolazione anziana, incoraggiati a salvaguardare i propri denti naturali
• Nei paesi in via di sviluppo – la necessità di avere accesso diretto alla cura dentale di qualità in
una condizione socioeconomica restrittiva Insieme ai nostri prodotti eccezionali, la nostra forza di
innovazione, rappresentata da nuove tecniche, nuovi materiali e l’instaurarsi di nuove collaborazioni
con professionisti del settore dentale, ci permetteranno non solo di fornire ai clinici strumenti, ma –
cosa ancora più importante – mettere a loro disposizione metodi operativi ad elevate prestazioni, che
sono ottimizzati e che possono essere riprodotti ogni volta con lo stesso livello qualitativo.
