Sonendo announced a cooperation agreement with BEST for Dentistry, a dental services company focused on leveling the playing field for independent dental practices. The goal of this strategic alliance is to expand access to the GentleWave procedure, which offers a less invasive and less painful alternative to traditional root canal treatment, by making it available to more dental practices across the country.
BEST for Dentistry is committed to empowering clinicians to take their practices to the next level by improving efficiency, increasing profitability and providing better patient care. This is in line with Sonendo’s mission to leverage innovative technology to simplify and improve the root canal procedure for doctors, their staff and their patients.
“BEST is excited to partner with Sonendo to bring the GentleWave system to our members’ practices,” said BEST Partner and COO Walt Gramley. “Sonendo supports BEST’s mission to offer high-quality, high-value products to independent dentists to support their clinical independence and superior patient care.”
With easy access to the GentleWave system, BEST for Dentistry members can now significantly increase their root canal treatment offerings and further diversify their practices.
“We know that leading group purchasing organizations (GPOs) like BEST for Dentistry are at the forefront of the intersection between technology and dentistry,” said Bjarne Bergheim, president and CEO of Sonendo. “We look forward to seeing more clinicians implement and adopt the GentleWave system to streamline their workflows and improve the patient experience with reduced post-operative pain and faster healing.”
Demonstrating Sonendo’s commitment to expanding access to the GentleWave Procedure, this news comes shortly after the Company announced strategic partnership agreements with two endodontic dental service organizations (DSOs) in October 2023.

About Sonendo
Sonendo is a commercial-stage medical technology company focused on protecting teeth from tooth decay, the world’s most prevalent chronic disease. Sonendo develops and manufactures the GentleWave System, an innovative technology platform designed to treat tooth decay by cleaning and disinfecting the microscopic spaces within teeth without the need to remove tooth structure. The system uses a proprietary mechanism of action, which combines process fluid optimization, broad-spectrum acoustic energy, and advanced fluid dynamics, to clean and disinfect deep areas of the complex root canal system in a less invasive procedure that preserves tooth structure. The clinical benefits of the GentleWave® system compared to conventional root canal treatment methods include improved clinical outcomes such as superior cleaning independent of root canal complexity and tooth anatomy, high and rapid healing rates, and little to no postoperative pain. . In addition, the GentleWave system can improve the workflow and finances of dental practices.
Sonendo is also the parent company of TDO Software, the developer of widely used endodontic practice management software solutions designed to simplify practice workflow. TDO software integrates practice management, imaging, referral reporting and cone beam CT imaging and offers integrated communication with the GentleWave system.
