Dental products maker, 25% U.S. Read October 19, 2026 from the annual report for the period ending December 31, 2025, filed February 12, 2026. Ranked 75 of the 95 Healthcare companies read so far, by the share within reach now.

Envista states approximately 12,000 employees at December 31, 2025, 3,000 in the U.S. and 9,000 outside, including a commercial organization of over 3,000, in one dental products business, so one pattern takes the whole workforce by description (c).

The figures on this page come from the company's own annual report and from BLS staffing patterns for its industries, never from a roster. They are estimates with a stated method. Nothing here says what the company will do: within reach is not a forecast of jobs lost or of savings.

What follows from the reading

Share of working time within reach of AI, on the long-run pace at four in five: 19% now, 31% at the end of 2027, 36% at the end of 2028, 38% at the end of 2030. By the patterns, the work is about 38% desk work, 16% people work and 46% body work. These are the site's industry estimates weighted by the shares below: estimates with a stated method and range, not a forecast of what the company will do. By the same patterns, at the end of 2028 about 57% of the working time stays with people (conversation, in-person and hands-on work), 35% becomes checking a model's work and 6% could be handed over with lighter checks, from the industries' own figures, not the company's roles.
