RadBox sterilizes in minutes.

The problem we are solving

The step patients never see.

  1. 01

    Time

    The problem todayHours

    for a fully loaded steam cycle, with drying and cooling, while patients and staff wait.

    We achieve<10 min

    per sterilization cycle.13

  2. 02

    Reach

    The problem today75%

    of low-speed handpiece samples tested carried oral bacteria.9

    We achieve>121 °C

    reached inside sealed handpiece channels.13

  3. 03

    Safety

    The problem todayCarcinogen

    The main alternative, ethylene oxide gas, causes cancer.18

    We achieveZero

    toxic gas or chemicals.

  4. 04

    Cost

    The problem todayExtra inventory

    of costly instruments kept just to cover the wait.

    We achieve5× faster

    turnaround, so fewer spare instrument sets.

Why it matters

When sterilization fails, patients pay the price.

1 in 38 hospital patients catches an infection during their care.3

  • $20,785

    added cost of a single surgical site infection.4

  • 78%

    of CDC dental outbreak investigations traced back to lapses in instrument reprocessing.14

  • 20,000+

    dental patients told they may have been exposed in those outbreaks.14

Between two patients

One tray. Two very different workflows.

Steam autoclaveHoursuntil instruments are back in use
  1. Ultrasonic clean and rinseRemoves debris. Required for any sterilizer.
  2. DryInstruments must be fully dry before packing.
  3. Package each instrument separatelyOne plastic pouch per instrument. Single-use packaging waste.
  4. Steam sterilizeHours for a full load, with heat-up.
  5. Dry and coolPouches must dry before they can be handled.
  6. Unpack and storeBack in use.
RadBoxMinutesuntil instruments are back in use
  1. Ultrasonic clean and rinseThe same first step. No sterilizer works on a dirty instrument.
  2. Back in the trayInstruments go straight back in the tray. No pouches, no plastic waste.
  3. SterilizeGermicidal light and heat together, in under 10 minutes.
  4. CoolUnder 10 minutes. No drying.
  5. Back in useThe tray goes straight back to the chair.
