Class Action Lawsuit Against Dentsply Sirona Inc.
The Gross Law Firm has issued a crucial notice for investors of Dentsply Sirona Inc. (NASDAQ: XRAY), highlighting the initiation of a class action lawsuit with an imminent deadline for shareholders. This announcement raises significant concerns amongst those who bought shares during the specified class period.
Background of the Lawsuit
The class action lawsuit is centered around several serious allegations against Dentsply Sirona relating to its Byte teeth aligner product line. According to the complaint, the company is accused of issuing materially inaccurate statements and failing to disclose critical information regarding its marketing practices. The allegations posit that Dentsply targeted low-income individuals who lacked proper oral hygiene education, thus enrolling patients in Byte’s direct-to-consumer aligner program without ensuring they were suitable candidates for the treatment.
Additionally, the claim suggests that existing dental issues were overlooked due to aggressive sales tactics, which inadvertently led to contraindicated patients entering into treatment without appropriate evaluations. Reports of Byte patients sustaining injuries have purportedly been rising, and the lawsuit contends that Dentsply was aware of these incidents but neglected due diligence measures to address the underlying causes. Not only did the company allegedly fail to investigate the injuries, but it also did not notify the FDA appropriately as required.
As the complaint unfolds, it becomes evident that Dentsply's assertions about its operations and future prospects were misleading. This situation has raised alarms among shareholders, many of whom may have oversold themselves on the company's goodwill value, influenced by optimistic statements that lacked sufficient backing.
