Company overview

VistaApex Solutions brings together dental brands including VistaApex, PerioProtect and PerioSciences. The group offers endodontic and restorative products, periodontal-care systems and small equipment, with clinician involvement informing product development.

The selected device scope includes PinkWave curing technology, Vista BC Putty and endodontic sealer solvent. FDA decisions for the latter products name Inter-Med, Inc. as applicant; those records are retained with their original legal identity rather than generalized to every group brand.

CEO Eric Shirley leads the Racine-based business. Its commercial model combines product development, clinician education and dealer channels. A manufacturer-published directory documents North American dealer relationships, while older Vista Dental irrigant recalls remain separately identified as historical events.
