Our History
Since 1971, Candent has been operating in Canada, but the roots of the company go back to family owned business in India, which has been supplying natural bone for medical studies around the world for generations. With contacts and expertise in this field Candent was established as one of the largest suppliers of natural bone in North America. In 1985 when international regulations severely restricted the trade of in natural bone, Candent filled the void with medical models from the best manufacturers in the world.
Our Products
Candent supplies medical and dental teaching models and posters. We pride ourselves on anatomical accuracy and we have searched the world for manufacturers that can meet our rigorous standards. Over 500 medical models are available through our catalogue.
We also manufacture our own models. The XRP-1 Dental Radiographic Manikin, for example, is a carefully hand crafted model with natural bone teeth and sinuses. Natural bone is Candent's specialty.
