HuFriedyGroup recently announced a significant addition to its leadership team. Chris Wright, an accomplished executive with a wealth of dental and healthcare industry experience, joins as the company’s new senior vice president, North America sales.

Wright brings over 20 years of proven success in driving growth, building high-performing teams, and executing strategic initiatives. His prior roles include vice president of sales and vice president of commercial operations at Dentsply Sirona and, most recently, chief growth officer at iCreditWorks. Throughout his career, Chris has consistently demonstrated his ability to lead organizations through transformative growth and foster strong relationships with partners, clients, and internal teams.

“I am honored to join HuFriedyGroup, a company with a rich legacy of excellence and innovation.

In his new role, Wright will be responsible for managing and driving North America sales growth, customer experience initiatives, and the reputation of HuFriedyGroup through exceptional service to end-users, dental schools, DSOs, and corporate-owned dentistry practices. Chris assumed his new responsibilities in November.

“We are thrilled to welcome Chris to HuFriedyGroup,” said Andrew Xilas, HuFriedyGroup president. “Chris’s extensive expertise in commercial strategy, team development, and market expansion is exactly what we need as we continue to grow and innovate. His vision and leadership will be invaluable as we strengthen our position as a global leader in dental solutions.”
