METUCHEN, N.J., Sept. 17, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Dentistry.One has introduced SmileScan, an innovative AI-powered service that enables individuals to assess their dental health using their smartphone.

SmileScan: A free AI-powered dental wellness check-in available at Dentistry.One

Overview of SmileScan
Dentistry.One's SmileScan leverages advanced AI technology developed by Toothlens, Inc. to analyze photos of a person's mouth, generating a comprehensive report with valuable insights into several aspects of their dental health. The process is quick and requires only a smartphone and mirror.

How SmileScan Works:

Image Capture: Users are guided through the process of taking five photos of their teeth using their smartphone's front or rear camera. It's also easy for a user to use a mirror or have a friend or family member take the photos.
AI Analysis: SmileScan's AI technology evaluates key aspects of dental health, such as tartar buildup, gum recession, inflammation, teeth gaps, and alignment issues.
Report Generation: SmileScan generates a detailed report highlighting any areas of concern. The report includes a score, which is calculated based on five key areas of dental health.
After Care Support: Users can schedule a virtual consultation with a Dentistry.One dentist directly from their SmileScan report for personalized guidance and advice.

Benefits of SmileScan
SmileScan is offered at no cost, allowing individuals to monitor their dental health in between their regular in-office visits. Regular use can help detect early signs of dental problems, potentially reducing future treatment costs. Additionally, individuals can seamlessly connect with a Dentistry.One dentist if they have any questions or concerns about their results.

"SmileScan is a breakthrough in empowering individuals to take control of their oral health," said Sharity Ludwig, Senior Director of Clinical Operations at Dentistry.One. "Using SmileScan, users can get instant, easy-to-understand insights about their dental health, so they can check-in on their oral health without having to wait until their next dental appointment."
