VideaHealth, the leader in AI-powered dental solutions, has launched OrthoAI and ImplantAI—new additions to its VideaAI platform that offer aligner and implant recommendations. These tools help dental service organisations (DSOs) and independent practices identify untapped treatment opportunities and optimise resource use by analysing routine radiographs to pinpoint patients who are likely to benefit from aligners or implants. This enables clinicians to focus scanning efforts on high-probability cases.
“Aligners and implants represent enormous clinical and financial opportunities for DSOs and dental groups, but many organisations struggle to identify eligible patients at scale and train their staff to check for these procedures continuously,” said Florian Hillen, chief executive officer of VideaHealth. “With these new AI-powered recommendations, we’re addressing one of the most persistent frustrations DSOs face: knowing which patients to analyse with more detailed imaging, and how to maximise treatment conversion. VideaAI enables providers to focus time and resources on high-probability candidates, minimising wasted effort and unlocking millions of dollars in previously untapped revenue.”
Pilots with leading DSOs have already demonstrated rapid impact. Within 30 days of deployment, aligner treatment planning increased by 14%, generating an estimated USD 125,000 in additional revenue per location. Top-performing practices nearly tripled their treatment planning volumes, translating to approximately USD 1.5 million in potential incremental aligner revenue annually per practice.
Despite investments in intraoral and 3D scanners, and extensive staff training, many DSOs still face inconsistent scanner usage and missed opportunities for diagnosing high-value treatments. OrthoAI addresses this challenge. Within weeks of activation, practices recorded a twelve-fold increase in 3D scans for patients with a high likelihood of aligner conversion—driven by clinical insights and prior treatment history. These AI-powered prompts improve case acceptance and simplify onboarding and training.
By flagging strong candidates directly within VideaAI, OrthoAI and ImplantAI remove guesswork and streamline operations. There is no need for added workflows or retraining—just clear, visual cues that help practices:
- increase aligner and implant case volume through more targeted scanning
- maximise scanner use while reducing the training burden on staff
- standardise care across providers with consistent, evidence-based recommendations
Beyond financial impact, improved identification of aligner and implant candidates also supports long-term patient health. Proper orthodontic and implant treatment can reduce systemic risks linked to heart disease, diabetes, and sleep apnoea, while improving nutrition and quality of life.
“VideaAI already powers the largest share of AI adoption across the largest ten DSOs in North America,” Hillen added. “With this launch, we’re not just helping DSOs grow smarter and faster; we’re also supporting healthier, longer lives for patients everywhere.”
OrthoAI and ImplantAI are available as part of VideaHealth’s WorkflowAI package to customers using both the Huddle and Viewer modules.
