Founded in 1998, Ortek Therapeutics develops oral-health technologies and makes BasicBites, sugar-free soft chews designed to support enamel and the oral microbiome. The company’s work grew from a long-running collaboration with the Research Foundation for the State University of New York and Stony Brook University School of Dental Medicine, where its arginine bicarbonate and calcium carbonate technology was developed and clinically tested. Ortek also created the FDA-cleared Ortek-ECD device for early detection of occlusal cavities, while BasicBites brings its microbiome research into a daily consumer product manufactured in the United States at an FDA-registered, CGMP facility.
