Forward Science recently introduced OralID, which uses fluorescent technology to identify cancerous and pre-cancerous lesions at

early stages. OralID's low cost and lack of per-patient disposables positions the product as a more affordable screening light option. OralID emits visible light that enhances a dental professional's ability to identify tissue abnormalities. Abnormal tissue appears dark due to a lack of fluorescence.

Dr.Collins, Inc. recently launched the Dr.Collins Dental Work Specialty Floss for consumers who find flossing difficult around implants, bridges, and braces. The dentist-developed, sponge-like floss with a built-in threader eliminates the need for two separate flossing devices. The threader slides through hard-to-reach areas, allowing the thick sponge-like floss to follow through and deeply clean between large interdental spaces, under bridgework, and around implants and braces. Dr.Collins Dental Work is available on a spool, giving the patient the ability to choose the length of floss desired.
