Vatech has introduced its new dental imaging platform, Vatech® Clever One, in the United States following FDA clearance of its AI-driven lesion detection feature. The platform brings together various diagnostic tools into a single system, designed to support dental professionals across the full clinical workflow, from imaging to patient communication.
Clever One enables the integration of multiple types of scan data, including panoramic, cone-beam CT (CBCT), intraoral, facial, and STL files, within a unified viewer. The software aims to reduce reliance on multiple systems by providing a single interface for various diagnostic and planning tasks.
According to Vatech, some of the platform's capabilities include:
- AI lesion detection: Identifies possible lesions on panoramic images to aid in faster screening
- 3D segmentation: Offers automated separation of teeth and bone structures for visualization in implant and endodontic procedures
- Root canal analysis tools: Measures root canal length and diameter to assist with endodontic planning
- Image alignment: Allows for simple drag-and-drop alignment of CBCT, intraoral, and facial scans
- Implant and endodontic simulations: Supports preoperative planning
- Dual scan comparison: Enables before-and-after treatment visualization
- Scenario-based interface: Organizes tools based on clinical tasks such as diagnosis, comparison, and consultation
- Cloud integration: Provides syncing and sharing capabilities through EzCloud
The development of Clever One’s AI features involved collaboration with companies in the dental software and artificial intelligence sectors, including Pearl. These partnerships contributed to capabilities such as real-time lesion detection and segmentation.
In terms of usability, the platform includes features that allow for customization of toolbars, layout adjustments, and compatibility with different types of clinical setups. The interface adapts to various screen sizes and hardware environments, including both chairside and desktop systems.
With the release of Clever One, the company seeks to support ongoing efforts toward greater integration and efficiency in digital dentistry.
