About Zyris

We’re a family business that was envisioned during a holiday dinner by a dentist, an industrial designer, and an accountant. The dentist complained of physical strain and visibility challenges. After much brainstorming and experimenting, a new way of practicing dentistry was born in 2001 with the launch of our Zyris Isolite dental isolation system. As a result, over 100 million dental procedures at over 15,000 locations have had better clinical outcomes with ease and efficiency.

Our company culture embodies an entrepreneurial spirit by encouraging employees to speak up and pursue new ideas, with an eye on long-term customer success. We live our core values, while supporting each other and the greater dental community.
