Pioneering “No-Drill” Treatment for Early Cavities

vVardis Holding AG was founded in 2020 in Zug, Switzerland, by Dr. Haley Abivardi and Dr. Goly Abivardi, two internationally renowned dentists and serial entrepreneurs who are also sisters. They will still control the company after the IPO.

vVardis pioneered the Curodont peptide platform that treats early-stage cavities without drilling, according to the prospectus. The treatment is applied to a patient’s teeth in five minutes or less during a visit to the dental office, the prospectus said.

Curodont Repair Fluoride Plus is sold as an OTC drug only through Henry Schein in the United States – and it generates most of the company’s revenue, the prospectus said. This product line was launched in the U.S. in January 2024. Curodont products have treated over 3.5 million teeth as of June 30, 2025, and they have been sold to over 20,000 of the approximately 110,000 general dental practices in the U.S.

Curodont Repair, a fluoride-free version, is sold as a medical device in the UK and some countries in Europe.

In the prospectus, vVardis Holding said it had an accumulated deficit of $256.3 million as of June 30, 2026.

vVardis is not profitable: It reported a net loss of $52.2 million on revenue of $49.68 million for the 12 months that ended on June 30, 2026, according to the prospectus.
