Company Overview

Henry Schein, Inc. is a global provider of healthcare solutions primarily serving dental and medical professionals. The company operates in the healthcare distribution and services industry, supplying consumable products, equipment, technology, and value-added services that support clinical care and practice management. Its core customers include dentists, dental laboratories, physicians, medical offices, and alternate care sites, with a strong emphasis on small- and mid-sized practices.

The company generates revenue mainly through the distribution of branded and private-label consumables, dental and medical equipment, and practice management software, complemented by financial, logistics, and advisory services.
