About Us

Our History began in 1962 when founders Louis E. Brooks, Jack Alpert and George Kauer set out to advance the dental industry with first-rate products. Together they pioneered the concept of dry air with the introduction of Dento-Dri, a high capacity compressed air dryer for the dental system. This was the first time dentistry’s need for dry, low humidity, compressed air was successfully addressed. Soon after Dento-Dri took the market by storm, Air Techniques quickly became an industry leader bringing many first time advances in utility and digital products to dental professionals.

Air Techniques is the US manufacturer of choice of products for the dental professional to be “equipped for life”. We leverage our market leadership position in core practice equipment to become a leading producer of digital diagnostic systems, hygiene solutions, and other relevant product categories. We apply our technologies to create innovative solutions for select non-dental markets.
