About Patterson

Patterson strengthens the dental and animal health markets in North America and the United Kingdom. From small, private practices to large group networks and production operations, we guide our customers with bold solutions and a personal touch. We are much more than a distributor – we are an indispensable partner.

Patterson Dental has strengthened the dental industry since our company’s founding in 1877.

Today, Patterson Dental continues to partner with dental practices of all sizes to provide expertise, products, technologies and services needed to grow productive, modern practices, and keep them running smoothly.

No other company supports the animal health market like Patterson.

We entered the animal health industry in 2001 with our acquisition of Webster Veterinary and expanded with our 2015 acquisition of Animal Health International, Inc. We provide all the technology, products, expertise and solutions needed to deliver exceptional animal care and drive profitability across the companion, production and equine markets.

We source a complete range of everyday essentials and specialty products that dental and animal health customers need to run successful businesses.

Our extensive list of leading manufacturers grows daily, and we work with strategic partners to develop proprietary products and solutions for our customers. We take supply chain integrity seriously and are guided by our Supplier Code of Conduct to deliver high-quality products.

Patterson has more than 75 fulfillment centers strategically located across North America. We store our products in a controlled environment and every order is packed with precision and care by professionals to ensure orders are accurate and on time.

We are focused on exceeding environmental standards. We carefully select packaging materials to minimize environmental impact and create partnerships with environmentally responsible suppliers and vendors.
