October 30, 2024. Royal Philips (NYSE: PHG, AEX: PHIA), a leading name in health technology, has announced a strategic multi-year partnership with Aspen Dental, the largest network of branded dental practices in the United States. This collaboration aims to introduce Philips Sonicare products, the globally recognized sonic toothbrush brand favored by dental professionals, to Aspen Dental’s extensive network of over 1,100 locations.
Through this partnership, Aspen Dental clinicians will have the opportunity to provide patients with access to Philips Sonicare solutions, including the advanced Philips Sonicare ExpertClean toothbrush. This innovative device features smart sensors that assist patients in optimizing their brushing technique. Additionally, the collaboration will promote Philips Sonicare’s Cordless Power Flosser and Teeth Whitening Kits, enhancing patients’ at-home oral care routines by offering cutting-edge interdental cleaning and whitening options.
Philips and Aspen Dental are united by a common goal: to empower dental professionals to provide enhanced care to a broader audience. The Philips Sonicare range, known for its clinically validated efficacy, presents reliable tools for patients seeking to maintain optimal oral health between dental appointments. “Our mission is to improve people’s health and well-being through meaningful innovation,” stated Matina Vidalis, Senior Marketing Director for Consumer & Professional Oral Healthcare at Philips North America. “Aspen Dental represents an ideal partner in realizing this vision, and we are dedicated to collaborating with their network of dental professionals to introduce our evidence-based solutions to their patients. Together, we can expand access to quality dental care both inside and outside the clinic.”
Education during patient visits will be a focal point of this partnership. Philips plans to introduce its new Path to Health Toolset across all Aspen Dental offices. Developed in collaboration with behavioral scientists and dental experts, this toolset is designed to integrate smoothly into dental workflows. It will help practitioners quickly assess patients’ health objectives, enhance case acceptance through effective patient education, and guide both dental professionals and patients toward improved overall health.
“Ensuring that all Americans have access to quality dental care is a core priority for Aspen Dental, extending well beyond individual office visits,” said Cameron Jones, RDH, BSDH, Vice President of Hygiene Operations at Aspen Dental. “We are excited to offer Philips Oral Healthcare’s innovative solutions to our patients nationwide and to complement them with the exceptional care our practitioners provide every day.”
