W&H renews partnership with ADS as a 2025 Super Sponsor

This sponsorship is a perfect fit for W&H, as it has long championed the importance of effective infection prevention with its innovative and award-winning line of Lexa sterilizers and its newly released Lexa Mini Class B rapid sterilizer to add to a robust sterilizer portfolio. The new Lexa Mini adds a new level of versatility and convenience, providing a wide range of applications as a complimentary device for the sterilization of handpieces or as a back-up for tabletop sterilizers.
