The round was led by Meritech Capital Partners with participation from new investor SEB Private Equity, Fjord Ventures, OrbiMed Advisors, LLC, and NeoMed Management. In conjunction with the funding, Paul Madera, Co-founder and Managing Director of Meritech Capital Partners, joined Sonendo’s Board of Directors.
The company intends to use the funds to further technology development, fund clinical studies, and commercialize its GentleWaveā¢ System for root canal therapy.
