A clear field for the whole treatment. And for scan, photo, video.
One size · Steplessly adjustable · Designed by Dentists in Germany
You know the drill. You have two hands. One of them spends the day pulling back the cheek with the mirror, just so you can see. And right where you pull, the tissue distorts and the window gets even smaller. The same goes for your assistant. Two people pulling at the corners of the mouth, just to see. And still seeing badly. Every day. Every patient. Accepting this as normal costs more than you think. In time. In precision. In ergonomics.
You invest in scanners, CAD/CAM systems, premium materials. But the most fundamental problem stays unsolved. Unobstructed access to the treatment field gets ignored. Every one of these investments assumes you can see. RING solves exactly that problem.
Dentist or hygienist: more and more of you work solo at the chair. Whoever works without an assistant needs instruments that pull their weight, not instruments that demand a second person. RING holds the field open so both your hands stay free.
A wide, open field for the eye, the scanner and the camera. The anatomical shape opens more buccal space, a full view of the whole arch. You treat with a clear field, and the scanner and camera have the same open field. Mono-material in smooth, transparent polypropylene, the scanner glides, nothing catches. Holds even during the bite scan, both hands free, no assistant.
Steplessly adjustable for adolescents and adults, narrow and wide faces alike, set to the retraction you need in the moment. Soft for dental hygiene, standard for orthodontic checks, wide-open for scan, photo and video. One stock position for all of it, no switching mid-treatment.
Comfort comes from shape, not from soft material. RING isn't flat and round, the shape follows the anatomy of the mouth. It adjusts steplessly to face, size and indication. The geometry guides the material away from the pressure-sensitive zones in the anterior region. Comfortable for the patient across the whole treatment.
Steplessly adjustable for narrow and wide adult faces alike. And steplessly adjusted to the retraction you need in the moment. Soft for dental hygiene. Standard for orthodontic checks. Wide-open for scan, photo and video. One stock position, every clinical situation. No switching mid-treatment.
You know the moment. Full focus, mid-treatment in a complex case. You’re making good progress. And then the retractor slips out. The whole flow is gone. The patient rinses. Clean the retractor, reinsert, refocus, restart. Tedious. RING is built so this doesn’t happen. Retention comes from two design choices. The anatomical shape grips the soft tissue. The stepless adjustment creates a personal fit for every patient. Even when the patient closes their mouth or bites down.
The workhorse in every treatment. RING goes in within seconds and holds without holding. No assistant retracting lips and cheeks, no hand pinned to the mirror. Once placed, off your mind. Comfortable for the patient across the whole treatment, both hands free for you. Every day, on every patient.
Comfort doesn’t come from soft material. Comfort comes from shape. The geometry guides the material onto the lip, away from the pressure-sensitive zones in the anterior region. Stepless adjustment delivers individual fit. No standard size that truly fits no one. When the shape is right, the patient forgets the ring.
Over 20 years ago, Dr. Domonkos Horvath invented the original. The world’s first latex-free lip and cheek retractor, today used in more than 130 countries with over 100 million clinical applications.
His son Dr. Sebastian Horvath is a dentist, board-certified specialist in prosthodontics (DGPro), and Adjunct Assistant Professor of Restorative Dentistry at the University of Pennsylvania. Both practice daily. Both know the dental chair from both sides.
Innovation doesn’t happen in a high-rise. It happens in the dental practice.
Together, they asked themselves one question. What if we could start fresh, with the knowledge from over 100 million applications and the demands of today’s dentistry? No corporate structures. No compromises from the past.
RING is the answer. Simpler for the dentist. More comfortable for the patient. Simplicity on both sides of the chair.
Over 40 years of experience. Family-owned in the second generation, no outside investors. One of Germany’s most digitized practices. And that is exactly why we know what productivity at the chair really means. This is where Sebastian and Domonkos work with RING every day. This is where the product’s requirements are defined by daily clinical reality.
