Aspen Dental® and vVARDIS Announce Partnership to Fight Tooth Decay

Curodont™ Repair Fluoride Plus and Curodont™ Protect will now be available at Aspen Dental Practices

CHICAGO, Feb. 4, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Aspen Dental^® is proud to announce a new partnership with vVARDIS, a leading biomimetic dental science organization, to provide enhanced care to patients using Curodont™ Repair Fluoride Plus and Curodont™ Protect. These innovative products will help reduce patient discomfort while helping Aspen Dental clinicians treat early-stage decay in the dental office with Curodont Repair Fluoride Plus and help prevent cavities with Curodont Protect.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), about 25 percent of adults present with dental caries, or "watch areas". The traditional treatment approach of early caries consists of a dental professional observing the watch area and waiting to see if a cavity develops. With Curodont Repair Fluoride Plus, caries can be intercepted at an early stage. Curodont offers a novel, non-invasive, targeted solution for watch areas that requires only five minutes during a regularly scheduled hygiene appointment. Curodont Repair Fluoride Plus is an in-office treatment of early caries that fights early tooth decay painlessly to help prevent cavities. Curodont Protect, a complementary treatment to Curodont Repair Fluoride Plus, strengthens and remineralizes enamel, helping prevent cavities from forming, while building protection against tooth sensitivity.

"Aspen Dental practice owners are committed to providing their patients access to the most advanced oral health treatments," said Cameron Jones, RDH, BSDH, Vice President of Hygiene Operations at Aspen Dental Management, Inc. "Pairing our supported clinicians' expertise with the protection provided by Curodont will enable their patients to leave their appointments with peace of mind."

"Curodont represents a groundbreaking shift in oral care, enabling dental professionals to remineralize early tooth decay with a non-staining and pain-free application and without the need for invasive treatments," said Haley Abivardi, co-CEO of vVARDIS. "Its innovative approach natural minerals found in saliva to remineralize enamel, ensuring healthy smiles and greater confidence for patients"

Curodont Repair Fluoride Plus is a chairside product, its proprietary tasteless formulation diffuses throughout the enamel to provide targeted remineralization and help preserve the natural tooth structure. Curodont Protect is a remineralizing dental gel for in-office and at home use, that helps prevent early caries and builds protection on sensitive areas of the teeth.

"Curodont reflects our mission at vVARDIS to innovate oral health care," said Goly Abivardi, co-CEO of vVARDIS. "Curodont offers a non-invasive, quick and easy solution that enhances patient care and outcomes, enabling early intervention for "watch areas" that were previously left untreated."

"As a dental hygienist, it has been very exciting to help implement a product that is effective and easy to apply. Now, instead of just watching demineralized areas, we can partner with dentists to treat early decay by applying Curodont," said Rachel Mullins, RDH, a dental hygienist with Aspen Dental in Alcoa, Tennessee. "I love giving patients a fast and affordable treatment option. With Curodont, we can watch teeth remineralize instead of waiting for decay."
