KALAMAZOO, Michigan — Device company Axenic Dental is raising $1 million, according to a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Axenic’s focuses on disposable dental devices and its products include the Axenic DHP, a high-speed disposable drill the company says cuts the costs of cleanup and sterilization while giving patients the piece of mind of knowing their drill was only used on them. The 4-year-old company had received FDA approval for the device in early 2008.
VentureWire reports the company is raising a total of $3 million to bring the drill to market.
