WID Vienna International Dental Exhibition Vienna

The WID Vienna International Dental Exhibition Vienna is a trade event for dentistry, dental technology and the dental industry. Dentists, dental technicians, dental hygienists, dealers and manufacturers meet in Vienna to find out about new products, materials and digital processes. The exhibition is considered the central platform of the Austrian dental market and combines a product show with professional exchange. Vienna offers a strong medical and university infrastructure as a location. These conditions are conducive to an event that brings together innovation and scientific findings. The WID Vienna International Dental Exhibition is clearly aimed at a specialist audience and covers the entire spectrum of modern dentistry.

Digital dentistry and CAD/CAM

One focus of the WID Vienna International Dental Exhibition is on digitalisation. Intraoral scanners, CAD/CAM systems and 3D printing processes are fundamentally changing work processes in practices and laboratories. Manufacturers present solutions that accelerate treatment processes and make them more precise. Typical topics include:

  • Intraoral scanners and digital impressions
  • CAD/CAM milling units
  • 3D printing in dental technology
  • Digital X-ray technology
  • Practice software and data management
The integration of digital processes presents practices with organisational and financial challenges. Investments in new systems must be economically viable. At the same time, digital workflows open up new possibilities in diagnostics and prosthetics.

Materials and prosthetics

In addition to digital solutions, traditional materials remain a key focus. Ceramics, zirconium oxide, composites and modern alloys are undergoing continuous development. The WID Vienna International Dental Exhibition offers an overview of the latest material innovations and processing techniques. Prosthetic restoration, implantology and aesthetic dentistry are key areas of application. Manufacturers showcase implant systems, abutments and surgical instruments. Minimally invasive procedures and new fixation techniques are also presented. The topics covered include:

  • Implant systems and surgical planning
  • Aesthetic restoration materials
  • Adhesive technology and fixation systems
  • Hygiene concepts and sterilisation
Hygiene and infection control have become increasingly important in recent years. Dental practices are obliged to adhere to high standards. There is correspondingly high interest in validated reprocessing and documentation systems.

Further training and professional exchange

The WID Vienna International Dental Exhibition is complemented by an accompanying professional programme. Lectures, workshops and seminars address current topics from science and practice. The event thus serves not only for product information, but also for further training. The exchange between industry and users is a central element. Dentists can test new equipment, dental technicians can compare materials and dealers can analyse market trends. This direct encounter promotes the transfer of knowledge.

Vienna as a health location

Vienna is an important location for medicine and research. Universities, clinics and research institutions characterise the environment. Its location in the centre of Europe makes it easy for international exhibitors and visitors to attend. The WID Vienna International Dental Exhibition benefits from this position. Trade visitors from Austria and neighbouring countries use the exhibition to find out about innovations and cultivate business relationships.

Market position and prospects

The dental market is characterised by technological dynamism. Digitalisation, materials research and new treatment methods are changing the way practices and laboratories work. At the same time, healthcare markets are subject to regulatory requirements and economic pressure. WID Vienna International Dental Exhibition Vienna stands for a format that combines innovation, expertise and market transparency. In Vienna, an overview of products and developments that significantly influence dentistry and dental technology in Austria is created.
