Pearl, a developer of dental artificial intelligence solutions based in Los Angeles, California, and Vatech, a provider of advanced dental imaging technology based in Hwaseong, South Korea, have announced a global partnership designed to expand AI capabilities in dental diagnostics. Through this collaboration, Pearl’s Second Opinion® platform, a real-time AI tool that automatically detects a range of dental conditions in x-rays, will be integrated into Vatech’s imaging systems, enhancing diagnostic precision and workflow for dental professionals.
“By integrating Second Opinion® into Vatech’s software platforms, clinicians around the world will have access to the most advanced AI-powered diagnostic tools available today,” said Ophir Tanz, founder and CEO of Pearl. “Together, we are making it easier for clinicians worldwide to improve diagnostic workflows and deliver better care to patients.”
According to the company, Second Opinion® is the first AI software with global regulatory clearances to assist in detecting common dental conditions in bitewing, periapical, and panoramic x-rays. Now embedded within Vatech’s imaging solutions, the platform offers real-time detection, providing clinicians with enhanced radiologic precision and aiding in more effective patient communication. This integration aims to streamline clinical workflows and foster a more efficient AI-powered experience for dental professionals.
“Integrating Pearl’s technology into our imaging platform transforms how providers detect pathology, making the process not just more efficient, but better for patients as well,” said Brian Hwang, CEO of Vatech. “At Vatech, our mission is to provide dental professionals with the most reliable and technologically advanced imaging solutions. With the addition of Second Opinion®, we are making value-generating technology more accessible than ever.”
The collaboration aligns with both companies’ missions to improve the dental care experience through advanced technology, with a focus on enhancing diagnostic accuracy and increasing patient trust in dental practices.
