Planmeca designs, builds and assembles all products using the latest technology and the best materials – and all this takes place at the same location in Helsinki, Finland, ensuring unmatched quality and attention to detail. Planmeca products are hand-made and can be tailored to match the specific needs of each user.

5. Design matters

The sleek Scandinavian design of Planmeca equipment certainly pleases the eye, but there is more to the story than aesthetics. From safety and ergonomics to usability and comfort, everything has been taken into consideration. The practical, durable and beautiful Planmeca products have won many awards over the years, and they have been designed to comfortably accommodate patients of all sizes.

6. Sustainable, future-proof investment

Planmeca solutions have been designed to scale to the needs of a dental professional and grow with their practice. Clinicians can start with what they need and easily add more products, features and functions later. The great thing about Planmeca is that new features are also made available for older equipment when they are introduced. Once the products do come to the end of their life cycle, most of their components can be recycled.
