Dental device distributors in Australia: 19 licensed establishments
The Bastion Hale Distributor Index lists 19 establishments in Australia whose registry records include dental: 4 with a channel role (importer, distributor, wholesaler or authorised representative), 4 registration holders without a channel role, and 11 registered as manufacturer or exporter only, out of 202 medical device establishments in Australia overall. The records come from US FDA (openFDA) and Health Canada, last seen on 22 October 2026.
Dental covers equipment, implants, consumables and intraoral imaging sold to clinics and laboratories rather than hospitals. Dental dealers are a separate channel from hospital distributors, with their own wholesalers and trade shows. The segment usually has many establishments with small registration counts each.

| Manufacturer | 16 | 84% | Registered as a manufacturer with an address in this market, including foreign registrations. |
| Exporter | 7 | 37% | Registered with the US FDA as an exporter of devices made for export. |

Who holds the registration in Australia
In Australia the ARTG entry is held by an Australian sponsor, which is usually the importer or distributor or a local subsidiary. If the distributor is the sponsor, the market entry belongs to it until a transfer is agreed.
