Dental artificial intelligence (AI) platform VideaHealth has achieved a groundbreaking milestone with the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granting 510(k) clearance for their latest product, Videa Dental Assist. The clearance includes more than 30 AI algorithms, expanding AI detections to cover all of the most common dental diseases, according to a press release from VideaHealth. These new clearance applications include periapical radiolucencies, calculus, pediatric caries detection for ages 3 years and older, among many other AI models. These models are said to allow for detections across all ages, improving workflow and time-savings for dental professionals. Notably, some of these detections mark the first of their kind to be issued by a regulatory agency anywhere in the world, including the first pediatric radiology AI clearance in dentistry. Already embraced by thousands of clinicians, VideaAI has become the dental AI tool of choice for many, used daily to provide the best possible care for millions of patients. With this recent FDA clearance, VideaHealth aims to solidify its position as the first dental AI company to offer insights for virtually every disease state.
Dental claims and payment solution company DentalXChange has announced the launch of its new artificial intelligence (AI)–powered platform EligibilityAI. EligibilityAI was created to automate pre-appointment eligibility and benefits verification processes to streamline front office operations, according to a press release from the company. By harnessing the power of AI, EligibilityAI synchronizes with the dental practice’s pre-existing schedule to ensure verification is completed before the patient’s appointment. The user interface then displays the patient’s eligibility information in easy-to-read datapoints that are standardized across all patients and practices. This beneficial technology is said to eliminate the hassle of reaching out to insurance companies, making front office workflows smoother and more efficient. Eligibility AI aims to get rid of these antiquated methods as well as any errors that can accompany manual claims checking. This also ensures that patients receive the care that they need and are covered for, adding to peace of mind for the practitioner.
