vVARDIS AG and Henry Schein will award the first “Curodontist of the Year” during the Chicago Midwinter Meeting, held February 19-21. According to the company, one dentist and one hygienist will be honored at an exclusive, invitation-only event recognizing leadership, clinical excellence, and commitment to non-invasive, early caries treatment within their practice and community.
“The Curodontist of the Year distinction honors clinicians who are not only early adopters, but true ambassadors for non-invasive dentistry,” said Dr. Goly Abivardi, co-founder and co-CEO of vVARDIS. “Their continued commitment is helping accelerate a global shift toward earlier intervention in caries management and better long-term oral health outcomes: saving teeth helps also to save lives.”
According to the company, the “Curodontist Movement” is a community of dental professionals committed to identifying and treating early carious lesions without drilling and without delay, helping to preserve natural tooth structure using Curodont’s biomimetic science. Curodontists™ support the company’s mission to advance non-invasive dentistry and promote oral health.
Over the past year, the initiative has expanded in the United States and Europe through its Curodontist Certification Program, e-learning platform, and online provider locator. According to the company, these resources are designed to help clinicians integrate Curodont’s non-invasive early caries treatment into daily practice and enable patients to locate providers offering the solution.
“The Curodontist Movement represents a fundamental shift in how the profession approaches caries management and early intervention,” said Dr. Haley Abivardi, co-founder and co-CEO of vVARDIS. “In just one year, we have seen extraordinary engagement from clinicians around the world committed to establishing a new standard of care in the management of early caries.”
Attendees of the Chicago Midwinter Meeting are invited to visit booth #5024 to join the Curodontist Movement and participate in the Curodont Subscription Program promotion. According to the company, clinicians who sign up for a 12-month subscription will receive a three-month trial of VideaAI.
