Overjet, a leading dental technology company, has unveiled IRIS, marking a significant advancement in dental imaging technology. This pioneering software integrates artificial intelligence with cloud-based imaging capabilities, representing the first of its kind in the dental industry.
Enhanced Diagnostic Capabilities
The FDA-cleared system transforms conventional X-rays into detailed, full-colour images, offering unprecedented precision in identifying oral diseases and anatomical structures. The technology’s ability to highlight dental conditions with millimeter-level accuracy represents a substantial leap forward in diagnostic capabilities.
Revolutionary Workflow Integration
Wardah Inam, Overjet’s CEO, emphasised the transformative nature of the technology, stating: “IRIS doesn’t just capture images. It understands them.” She further explained that by “bringing AI directly into the imaging software, IRIS will make this technology a fundamental part of every single dentist’s workflow.”
Key Technical Features
The software, which underwent an 18-month development period, offers several innovative features designed to enhance dental practice operations. These include seamless offline accessibility and unlimited cloud storage, with practices maintaining access to patient images spanning the previous seven years.
Clinical Applications
A notable feature of IRIS is its ability to enhance suboptimal X-rays by reducing noise while preserving crucial clinical information. The system’s AI technology automatically identifies and outlines various oral health conditions, including cavities and plaque buildup, directly on the X-ray images.
Impact on Patient Care
The software particularly excels in patient education, enabling practitioners to present clearer, more comprehensible visualisations of oral health issues. This advancement supports more informed discussions between dentists and patients about treatment options and oral health status.
