Pearl, a leading global provider of artificial intelligence solutions for dentistry, today announced a partnership with vVARDIS, a leader in innovative dental care products, to educate dental professionals on how to detect and treat early caries. The global partnership brings vVARDIS and Pearl together.
vVARDIS’s Curodont, a bionic, drill-free early caries treatment, provides a breakthrough solution for dental professionals, while Pearl’s AI-powered real-time radiology detection aid, Second Opinion, provides an advanced, non-invasive tool for treating early caries.
Pearl’s AI solutions enable dental providers to accurately detect oral diseases such as caries or cavities early, ensuring proactive oral health measures. In addition to early disease detection, Pearl builds patient trust by enhancing their understanding of dental imaging, leading to better patient acceptance and more informed treatment decisions.
vVARDIS’ Curodont offers a no-drill, brush-on solution that helps promote hydroxyapatite formation during the early stages of caries, helping patients preserve natural tooth tissue and avoid costly, invasive fillings.
Up to 80% of patients develop caries at an early stage¹. Curodont allows dental professionals to treat these patients with a simple and quick topical application during the same visit as caries is detected, eliminating the need for a repeat appointment.
“At Pearl, we are committed to enhancing and standardizing dental diagnostics by leveraging AI to simplify x-ray interpretation and improve patient communication,” said Ophir Tanz, CEO and Founder of Pearl. “Our collaboration with vVARDIS will enable us to deliver a comprehensive, internationally scalable approach to early caries intervention, giving patients more options to effectively and proactively improve their oral health.”
“Partnering with Pearl is a natural extension of our mission to deliver innovative solutions for early caries,” said Jeremy Thomas, President of North America at vVARDIS. “This collaboration will provide dental professionals around the world with modern tools to detect the condition earlier and a proven, non-invasive solution to help restore enamel health.”
“As dentists and entrepreneurs, we are very excited to finally own and deliver a breakthrough approach to treating early caries,” said Dr. Haley Abivardi, DDS, and Dr. Goly Abivardi, DDS, Founders and Co-CEOs of vVARDIS. “34 million school days are lost each year in the U.S. due to emergency dental care², and untreated oral disease costs $45 billion in lost productivity³⁴.
Dental professionals have waited decades for a drill-free treatment that can address subclinical signs of caries in a single visit. With seamless integration into existing workflows, we believe Curodont™ has the potential to quickly become the new standard for early caries treatment – broadening the range of services offered and enabling dentists and dental hygienists to take a leading role in early caries management, ultimately enhancing patient care.”
