Lura Health, SCO Group team up on Oral Health Monitoring

Lura Health has teamed up with SCO Group. Lura Health, a U.S. health tech innovator, partners with SCO Group, a top player in Japan’s dental technology market. This partnership plans to use Lura Health’s advanced intraoral sensor technology in clinics throughout Asia. It also aims to broaden its use worldwide.

They gather real-time biometric data, like salivary pH levels and metabolites. The company is creating a new healthcare model. It focuses on tracking overall health by looking at biomarkers in the mouth.
