Vitrix Health, Inc. is a company that designs, develops, and manufactures innovative screening tools for the healthcare industry, specifically focusing on early-stage detection of oral diseases and cancers. Founded in 2018 and headquartered in Champaign, Illinois, Vitrix Health utilizes a combination of optics and machine learning on a mobile platform to enhance the effectiveness of oral health screenings conducted by primary care providers. This technology addresses the significant number of Americans who do not visit dentists regularly, thereby improving overall health outcomes and reducing costs. The company's oral cancer screening device is currently undergoing pilot testing in various prestigious institutions, including Mt. Sinai Hospital and the University of Chicago Medical School, in addition to international clinical trials in Bolivia and India. By empowering primary care providers to detect oral diseases, Vitrix Health aims to bridge disparities in oral health and ensure timely referrals for dental care.
