Sonendo Releases Software Update for its GentleWave G4 System

Sonendo Inc. has launched a software update that enables endodontists to clean complex anatomy with increased procedural efficiency.

ProControl allows endodontists to adjust procedure fluid concentration levels when using the CleanFlow procedure instrument, thereby tailoring treatments to each patient’s unique needs. This advancement expands the GentleWave G4 System’s clinical flexibility as well as enabling optimal clinical outcomes and an improved patient experience through personalized treatment.

“ProControl for the GentleWave G4 represents our commitment to continued product innovation,” Sonendo President/CEO Bjarne Bergheim said. “The GentleWave G4 Console was designed with the future in mind, and this upgrade will allow our G4 users the opportunity to reduce procedure time and further facilitate the transition towards non-instrumentation endodontics. No other endodontic system can automatically and precisely adjust fluid concentrations during treatment. Sonendo remains dedicated to meeting the evolving needs of endodontists and their patients by advancing dental care through technology. With the launch of ProControl, we are thrilled to be providing our customers the ability to fine-tune patient care.”

“We are excited to introduce ProControl as part of our ongoing commitment to evolving endodontic innovation to provide more personalized care for patients,” Sonendo R&D Vice President Kevin Yein added. “Our G4 technology underscores our dedication to providing endodontists with the tools to help them transform root canal treatment within their practices and provide better care to their patients.”

Sonendo is a commercial-stage medtech company that developed and manufactures the GentleWave System, a technology platform that treats tooth decay by cleaning and disinfecting the microscopic spaces within teeth without the need to remove tooth structure. The system uses a proprietary action mechanism that combines procedure fluid optimization, broad-spectrum acoustic energy, and advanced fluid dynamics to debride and disinfect deep regions within the root canal system in a less invasive procedure to preserve tooth structure. The GentleWave System’s clinical benefits when compared to conventional methods of root canal therapy include improved clinical outcomes, such as superior cleaning that is independent of root canal complexity and tooth anatomy, high and rapid rates of healing, and minimal to no post-operative pain. In addition, the GentleWave System can improve dental practices’ workflow and economics, and offer patients an effective, less invasive, less painful alternative to traditional root canal therapy.
