Introducing Pearl AI: The Future of Dental Radiography
At Nebraska Dental Center, we’re committed to delivering the best possible patient experience and the highest standards of oral healthcare. That’s why we’re constantly evaluating and embracing new technologies that can improve our diagnosis, treatment, and prevention. One of the most exciting innovations making waves in dentistry is Pearl AI, a dental artificial intelligence platform with FDA clearance for real-time, patient-facing analysis of both 2D and 3D X-rays.
What It Is
Pearl AI is an advanced dental AI system that collaborates with dentists to improve the accuracy, speed, and consistency of X-ray analysis. Unlike traditional X-ray interpretation, which can sometimes be limited by human error, image quality, or subtle abnormalities, Pearl AI leverages machine learning models trained on the world’s most extensive collection of expertly annotated dental X-rays.
How It Works
Pearl AI uses state-of-the-art computer vision technology to:
- Detect and segment anatomical structures, tooth parts, and areas of decay.
- Provide precise measurements of dental structures and the extent of detected conditions.
- Enhance image quality by correcting under- or overexposed X-rays and removing digital artifacts.
- Work even on degraded images, ensuring reliable results in virtually every scenario.
Pearl AI provides dentists with additional insights, enabling them to see not only what’s there, but also precisely where and how much. With AI-powered support, dentists can make more informed treatment decisions, reduce diagnostic uncertainty, and clearly explain findings to patients.
What Can You Expect
After your X-rays are taken, Pearl AI analyzes the images in real time. On the screen, you’ll see your X-rays displayed alongside clear visual overlays highlighting areas of concern, such as early signs of cavities, existing restorations, or bone changes.
This visual aid helps your dentist walk you through your oral health step by step. Instead of just being told about a potential problem, you can see it for yourself in real time, making it easier to understand your treatment options and why they may be necessary. The experience is interactive, transparent, and designed to give you more confidence in your dental care.
A Future of Dentistry
Nebraska Dental Center offers more than just routine dental care. We use technology and tools that are shaping the future of dentistry. Pearl AI is just one of the many ways we use tech to provide a more transparent, collaborative, and trustworthy dental experience.
