Our 10,000 dental instruments and product solutions are sold in over 100 countries, and we have over 900 employees representing and growing our brand around the world. Headquartered in Chicago, we have offices and distribution centers in Italy, Germany, China, and Japan, and a sales force spread over 30 different countries.
Hu-Friedy’s mission is the same today as it has always been – to help dental professionals perform at their best. In order to do that, we have to be at our best, too, because better dentistry starts with us - and we take that responsibility very seriously.
Picture the most recent clinical procedure you performed. Are you leaning over the patient or is your back erect? Are you craning your head to get a better view or is your neck relatively straight? Are your hands twisted around or are your wrists level?
Dental professionals deal with emotion every day, like the all-too-familiar patient that is anxious or fearful about their visit. But, as with any tight-knit team, dental professionals must also empathize with the emotions of their colleagues in times of personal triumph or tragedy. When focusing on the daily minutiae of the practice, it's easy to forget that colleagues, like all humans, are a product of their life experiences and backstories.
An artist, performer or player of consummate skill, that is the definition of a “master” according to Merriam-Webster. That might suffice for some, but here at Hu-Friedy our Masters are redefining the term.
Can you believe we’re now closer to the end of 2018 than the beginning? If you set goals for your dental practice back when there was still snow on the ground, ideally, you should be well on your way to hitting your numbers as you power through the second half of the year.

The worldwide pop culture phenomenon is back, and it’s taking another bite out of your calendar this week. That’s right, SHARK WEEK is making its annual appearance. You probably already know this if you’ve been seeing sharks all over your televisions. In 2016, we were inspired by Shark Week and discovered a unique dental connection to this tradition. What does a shark and dentistry have in common, you ask?
What would you do with five extra minutes per procedure in your dental practice?
Instruments must be properly taken care of if they are to function as they were intended, for as long as they were intended. A safe and efficient cleaning process will protect the investment you’ve made in high-quality dental instruments.
