Founded in 1994, the company has established itself as one of the leading trade publishers in the German-speaking D-A-CH region (Germany, Austria, Switzerland). Its print portfolio comprises around 30 dental trade titles aimed at specialists, general practitioners, students, dentists in the practice-founding phase and the wider practice team. Flagship publications include the ZWP Zahnarzt Wirtschaft Praxis, published twelve times a year since 1995, and the Dentalzeitung, the official trade organ of the Bundesverband Dentalhandel e.V., published four times a year since 1999.

History

Oemus Media AG was founded in Leipzig in 1994 and has since grown into one of the leading specialist publishers for dentistry, orthodontics and dental technology in the German-speaking D-A-CH region. From its base in Leipzig, the company built a print portfolio that today comprises around 30 dental trade titles. Among the earliest and most enduring publications is the ZWP Zahnarzt Wirtschaft Praxis, a business magazine for dentists that has been published twelve times a year since 1995. In 1999 the company added the Dentalzeitung, the official trade organ of the Bundesverband Dentalhandel e.V., published four times a year. Other long-running titles include dentalfresh, aimed at young dental professionals and students since 2005, and the bilingual today newspaper produced for events and trade fairs such as the Internationale Dental-Schau (IDS). Over the years the portfolio expanded to cover specialised fields of dentistry. The Implantologie Journal (eight issues per year), Prophylaxe Journal (six issues per year), Aligner Journal, Oralchirurgie Journal and Endodontie Journal (each four times a year) address specific clinical disciplines. Internationally, the publisher is represented by English-language magazines such as implants and ceramic implants, as well as Dental Tribune editions. Parallel to its publishing activities, Oemus Media became one of the largest congress and seminar organisers in the German dental sector, staging up to 60 seminars, congresses and symposia annually with roughly 5,000 participants. These continuing-education events cover quality management, dental hygiene, laser dentistry, oral surgery, aesthetic dentistry, periodontology, implantology and digital dental technologies, and include dental congresses and annual meetings of professional societies. A major strategic step came in 2008 with the launch of ZWP online (www.zwp-online.info), a news and information portal for the German-speaking dental market. The publisher was one of the first in the sector to bridge print and online media. In 2021 Oemus Media founded the ZWP Study Club, an independent e-learning platform that has grown to more than 34,000 registered members. The company now operates across five areas: print, online, event, study and corporate. In 2025 Oemus Media celebrated three decades in the dental market and 20 years of DTI, launching a dedicated anniversary page. In 2026, after more than 30 years, the Leipzig media house introduced a new brand identity. The company remains privately held and continues to be headquartered in Leipzig.
