Dental covers equipment, implants, consumables and intraoral imaging sold to clinics and laboratories rather than hospitals. Dental dealers are a separate channel from hospital distributors, with their own wholesalers and trade shows. The segment usually has many establishments with small registration counts each.

Who holds the registration in Australia
In Australia the ARTG entry is held by an Australian sponsor, which is usually the importer or distributor or a local subsidiary. If the distributor is the sponsor, the market entry belongs to it until a transfer is agreed.
This is the general rule, not legal advice. The registration clause in the first distributor contract decides who controls the market later. The Next 10 Markets report covers who holds the registration in each of your ten markets.
