Biolase and EdgeEndo announced on April 21 at the American Association of Endodontists annual meeting that they will develop a laser-assisted microfluidic irrigation device.
EdgePro is intended as a device that can handle substances, such as sodium hypochlorite, ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, chlorhexidine, or two-in-one or three-in-one irrigation solutions.
Biolase expects to submit a premarket notification 510(k) clearance for the device to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in the second quarter of 2021, so that it can be sold in the U.S.
