IRVINE, Calif., May 16, 2023 (Newswire.com) - Glidewell, the nation's largest dental lab, announced a partnership today with Overjet to improve dental diagnoses for patients by enabling easier access to AI-powered radiograph analysis and clinical insights.

Through this collaboration, Glidewell's customers can tap Overjet's innovative artificial intelligence technology to help dentists identify areas of concern, such as cavities, gum disease, and other dental issues. Overjet's solution complements the glidewell.io^™ In-Office Solution, which offers dentists everything they need to scan, design, mill and deliver same-day restorations.

"In the laboratory setting, AI has transformed how dentistry operates by making restoration production more accurate and predictable," said Glidewell CEO Stephenie Goddard. "Overjet has emerged as a powerful tool for dentists, and we are excited to partner together to provide our customers with the most advanced technology to identify restorative treatment needs, enhance the patient experience, and strengthen the patient-clinician relationship."

This collaboration will enable Glidewell's network of dentists to harness the power of AI to further advance patient care, opening the door to new opportunities and practice growth."
