Class Action Lawsuit Against Dentsply Sirona Inc.
Levi & Korsinsky, LLP has reached out to inform investors of Dentsply Sirona Inc. (NASDAQ: XRAY) regarding a significant class action securities lawsuit. This case is primarily relevant to those who faced financial losses potentially due to alleged fraudulent practices by the company during the period from December 1, 2022, to November 6, 2024.
Overview of the Allegations
The central claim of the lawsuit revolves around allegations of securities fraud, where the company purportedly misled investors about the operational integrity and patient care policies associated with its product Byte, a direct-to-consumer (DTC) aligner solution. The complaint articulates several critical points that highlight serious issues faced by the company:
1.
Targeting Vulnerable Populations: Dentsply was accused of focusing its sales efforts on low-income individuals lacking access to adequate oral hygiene and not informing them about the appropriateness of the product for their conditions.
2.
Aggressive Sales Tactics: Sales commissions pushed employees to sell to patients who weren’t suitable candidates, leading to potential injuries.
3.
Inadequate Patient Onboarding: Concerns were raised about the onboarding process not being stringent enough to prevent contraindicated patients from entering treatment.
4.
Failure to Address Complaints: Reports of severe injuries from Byte aligners surged, yet Dentsply seemingly ignored these, failing to report them to the FDA within the required time frame.
5.
Misrepresentation of Goodwill: The lawsuit asserts that the goodwill value attributed to the Byte product was significantly overstated, based on both the questionable sales practices and the injuries reported.
