Pearl and Patterson Dental Forge Partnership to Revolutionize Dental Care with Artificial Intelligence Integration

In a strategic move to redefine dental care, leader in dental artificial intelligence (AI) solutions, Pearl, has announced an exclusive partnership with Patterson Dental. The collaboration aims to distribute Pearl's cutting-edge Second Opinion® and Practice Intelligence® software solutions and integrate the AI pathology detection feature set of Second Opinion® within Patterson’s Eaglesoft dental practice management software, according to a press release from the company.

Tim Rogan, President of Patterson Dental, expressed the company's commitment to being the most trusted partner within the dental industry. He stated, "With a mission to be the most trusted partner within the dental industry, we are committed to bringing our customers new products that streamline operations, optimize efficiency, and maximize profitability. With Pearl as our new AI provider, we are doubling down on our efforts to offer new solutions that transform practice performance by equipping our users with dentistry’s most powerful AI-backed technology."

Last year, Pearl's Second Opinion® made history as the first dental AI software authorized by the United States Food and Drug Administration to assist dentists in detecting various conditions commonly diagnosed in x-rays of adult teeth in patients aged 12 and older. The software offers numerous benefits to dentists, including a 37% more accurate detection of pathology in patient x-rays, a 24% higher case acceptance for restorative, endodontic, and periodontic treatments, and a significant 71% increase in patient trust in diagnoses, per the press release.

Pearl's Practice Intelligence® platform extends these benefits beyond the dental chair by synthesizing AI clinical findings with patient treatment data automatically synced from practice management systems. This integration delivers actionable insights that drive operational efficiency, clinical excellence, and practice growth.

In collaboration with Patterson Dental, Pearl's advanced AI capabilities will be seamlessly integrated within the Eaglesoft practice management software. This integration will provide Patterson Dental customers across the United States with dentistry’s most advanced clinical AI capabilities.

Patterson Dental also plans to extend this integration to their Fuse cloud-based practice management software and Dolphin practice management software in the future, with details of these integrations to be announced at a later date.

Ophir Tanz, Founder and CEO of Pearl, highlighted the transformative potential of their breakthrough AI technology in enhancing the quality, accuracy, and consistency of care. "Together with Patterson, we will dramatically accelerate the rate of that transformation – and, as an integrated offering within some of dentistry’s most widely used and trusted practice management systems, enable the most efficient AI-powered clinical workflow for thousands of dental practices across the US," Tanz stated.

Current Eaglesoft users can gain access to Pearl’s AI capabilities by contacting their Patterson sales representative, ushering in a new era of advanced, technology-driven dental care.
