BIOLASE and EdgeEndo announce clearance of their irrigation and disinfecting EdgePRO system.
BIOLASE and EdgeEndo have announced the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) clearance of its EdgePRO Laser-Assisted Microfluidic Irrigation device. This device is designed for endodontic procedures for cleaning and disinfection, according to a press release from BIOLASE. It utilizes BIOLASE’s Er,Cr:YSGG 2780 nm wavelength technology. This laser technology can be used for debridement, cleaning, and disinfection for root canal procedures. It uses laser light-sound technology paired with irrigation to do this.
BIOLASE will helm the manufacturing of this system along with procedure tips and accessories for EdgeEndo. EdgeEndo will helm sales of the EdgePRO system. EdgeEndo founder and CEO Charles Goodis, DDS, said that this partnership would offer solutions to endodontists to improve outcomes.
