HUNT / AI-Dentify, a new AI technology is being developed to revolutionize dentistry. A major investment is now being made to create an AI tool that should be able to improve diagnostics and treatment in dentistry. It is the Research Council of Norway and «Innovation Project in Business» that invest in the project “AI-Dentify.” The research project has a value of more than SEK 21 million. Boneprox has brought heavy partners into the project such as SINTEF and the Center for Oral Health Services and Research to use A.I in the analysis of X-ray images to identify oral diseases. The data to be used is from HUNT4 (The Health Survey in Trøndelag) and the project will last for approx. 4 years. The project collaborates with leading dentists and radiologists to ensure that the tool is useful in clinical practice.
The new AI tool will reduce time consumption and increase precision in diagnostics and treatment, while contributing to more efficient and sustainable dental care.
“This is an exciting development in the dental sector and we look forward to making progress and seeing results in the time to come” says Shreya Desai, Head of AI på Boneprox.
Furthermore, says Theodor Remman, co-founder of Boneprox “There is no reason why we should not be at the forefront of the world in A.I analysis and dental health. We are therefore proud and very grateful that the Research Council of Norway shares our vision. Boneprox wants to connect the health sectors so that oral health in the future appears as part of the body.”
