The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has issued 510(k) clearance for Perio Assist, VideaHealth's tool for assessing periodontal disease.
The tool is powered by artificial intelligence and measures interproximal radiographic bone levels to assess the presence of gum disease. Perio Assist, which can be used in patients age 12 and older, supports clinicians' periodontal probing findings to aid in the early identification of some systemic diseases.
