Scottish dental imaging company Calcivis has announced that is has received pre-market approval (PMA) from the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for its Calcivis Imaging System. The Calcivis Imaging System applies a patented photoprotein that creates a low-level light flash using releasing calcium ions from the decay on the tooth surface. An intraoral sensor inside the Imaging System detects the light flash, and visualizes the decay for the clinician. With its PMA, the Calcivis Imaging System now has the ability to expand into the United States.
