Do you view your product as a way to get people back in a dentist chair who've been avoiding it? I'm concerned about people using your product and receiving good feedback and then not going to their cleaning / checkups.
Leila Samadi
@scotty_mcq Thank you for your question. In case of the AI finds signs of a cavity or gum inflammation or one of the other conditions we always recommend the users seek advice from a dental professional after they receive their report and if they don't have an appointment planned we advise them to make one in the near future. In case they receive a report with good feedback, we advise them to maintain their regular dental check-ups! ๐Ÿฆท Don't hesitate with any follow-up questions! :)
Volhan Salai
Ah man now I will get judged by my phone too ๐Ÿ˜ Looks great!
Richard Bundsgaard
@volhansalai Hopefully no judgement, "just" friendly help and nudges to keep those dental routines great and help you detect small things before they grow into big things :) Thanks for the feedback! ๐Ÿ™Œ

You wonโ€™t believe it - I chipped a tooth today bitting a stupid MacBook Air charger that had got stuck F#%*ing hate old devices ..! Anyways, so there was a reason for me to get this app. Coz I guess a crack on the top front tooth isnโ€™t enough to go my brother-in-law dentist Iโ€™ll just Adent it
Leila Samadi
@jacobvahr Sorry to hear about your chipped tooth! And you are absolutely right - you can just "Adent it" and get a personal feedback on your teeth and gums๐Ÿฆท. You are also welcome to book an free virtual appointment via this link https://www.adent-health.com/exc..., and we'll be in touch within a few days ๐Ÿ‘

This is so cool.

Nice product, in the end, shall it be coupled with regular visits to your dentist? Or is it more of a product that should enable you to decide when is the right time to go?
Leila Samadi
@rubenwolff Thank you for the question! We recommend it to be coupled with regular visits to your dentist ๐Ÿฆท๐Ÿฆท A regular dental examination of your teeth, gums, and bite is necessary to maintain good oral hygiene and prevent dental issues such as gum diseases, cavities, bad breath, and other issues. Adent Health is a tool you should use to track your overall oral health at home in between the regular visits. It also gives you a greater personal insight into your oral health and what YOU can do at home to maintain good hygiene and prevent teeth and gum diseases. Prevention is key! :) Please don't hesitate with any follow up questions! :-)

Great solution, just upvoted! I'm trying to grow my solution as well it's called Social Rebel
Richard Bundsgaard
@trey_cannon Thanks a lot for the support! ๐Ÿ™Œ thanks for sharing your solution too!
Trey Cannon
@richard_b no problem best of luck to you. Let me know if you need anything or have ways to further promote each other's solutions!
Michael Bang
Looks awesome! ?makers It seems like a very difficult task for the image analyzer to analyze images without more context than the image itself -- do you do something to provide more context and help the analyzer?
Leila Samadi
@micvbang That is a great question! I assume you might be a data scientist? (it's the same type of questions my Computer Vision colleagues ask me all the time :)) Feel free check out the last part of the demo video โ€“ but: Definitely yes! We combine the images with questions. Context is definitely important, but one thing to realize is that there is actually a lot of context inside our mouths themselves. For example when the algorithms determine inflammation of the gums, the algorithm also includes plaque, tartar, staining, tooth wear into consideration which are all indicators or "proxies" of the lifestyle, age, and/or dental habits :)

I guess many people will found this app useful ๐Ÿฆท congratulations on the launch!

Hi Product Hunters! ๐Ÿ‘‹ I am Richard, co-founder of Adent Health. We are a medtech-startup based out of Copenhagen, Denmark, and we are all about giving people access to dental care. Amazing to have @kevin hunting us <3 ๐ŸŒฑ How it all started When I was in my early 20โ€™s I was diagnosed with periodontitis, a severe and irreversible gum disease. I only found out years later that it was a wrong diagnosis. Now, in my mid-30โ€™s, I have been able to rebuild my dental health through effective routines and strict monitoring by dentists. Adent Health is technology designed to give you back control of your smile. The key to battling most dental problems is prevention through routines and taking action as soon as trouble is emerging. ๐Ÿฆท๐Ÿ“ฑ Dental home scans & personalized dental care Adent uses AI computer vision to scan photos of your mouth, taken from home with your smartphone. For free, and on the mission to give everyone personal recommendations on how to keep their mouth healthy. No mouth is the same, and oral care is individual. Our aim is to tailor recommendations specifically for each mouth. All recommendations are curated by our dentists. Adent is a certified medical device and 40.000 dental professional hours have been invested in building the algorithms and testing the clinical outcomes. ๐Ÿ”ฎ Whatโ€™s next In the future, we are planning to scan for more conditions, better personalization of recommendations, and create routines to help people maintain their dental health over time. ๐Ÿ’› Let us know what you think Weโ€™ll be hanging out in the comments section, and would love to hear what you think. We are always really excited about feedback - and believe it is the only way to build a great product :) โœจ๐Ÿ˜บ Exclusive on Product Hunt Do a scan, and exclusively get a free video consult ๐Ÿฆท๐Ÿ“น๐Ÿง‘โ€โš•๏ธ with one of our dental professionals (value: $65).

@kevin @richard_b Wow - great idea! I'm loving this. Maybe it can help me floss more. I find that the hardest challenge
Richard Bundsgaard
@kevin @stewup Love the support! Highly appreciated! :D
Nikolaj Kornelius Sรธrensen
@kevin @richard_b @stewup Thanks a ton for the support! I can confirm that it will ๐Ÿฆท๐Ÿคฃ

@kevin @richard_b Hey You guys Check out my solution if possible it's called Social Rebel! I'd like to get more comments and reviews to help others.

@kevin @trey_cannon thanks for sharing!
Mikkel Wessel
Interesting use of computer vision. Is it only certain things you can detect in the mouth?
Leila Samadi
@mikkel_wessel Thanks for reaching out! There is a lot to look for in the mouth, and of course the algorithms perform better at some things. Our strengths are in surface caries, inflammation in the gums, dental plaque and tartar/calculus, gum recession (appears when you have brushed too hard with the toothbrush) and teeth misalignment such as crowding, spacing, overbite, crossbite, and etc. ๐Ÿฆท As of this date the algorithms have been trained on millions of teeth images โ€“ and more than 40,000 dentist hours have been spent annotating data and developing the application. Give it a try, and we will happily receive your feedback :)
Nikolaj Kromann Jรธrgensen
Great product. Have used multiple times. Very clear value prop. Easy to use (however still require the right technique), and accuracy is high. PS: Very nice user interface!
Richard Bundsgaard
@nikolaj_kromann_jorgensen Great to hear you like it! Really appreciate the feedback ๐Ÿ™Œ

Congratulations โฃ Best of Luck Adent Health ๐Ÿ‘
Richard Bundsgaard
@sheikhanon thank you very much! ๐Ÿ‘
Jesper Bergmann
Great idea and delightful to use! There is so much potential in preventing issues instead of treating them later when it becomes much more painful to your teeth and your finances. I've had the pleasure of working with the co-founders before and they are brilliant and smart people with big hearts.
Richard Bundsgaard
@jesperbergmann Thanks so much for the feedback! And thanks for the kind words -- the pleasure is definitely mutual! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ™Œ
Morten Just
This is an impressive first step - what is your grand vision for this, 5, 10 years out?
Richard Bundsgaard
@mortenjust Thanks for the feedback! Our mission is to eradicate dental problems before they arrive โ€“ but we acknowledge that will probably take a while ๐Ÿ˜Š Dental care is a lot about establishing great routines and intervening before it is โ€œtoo lateโ€. We want to cover more conditions, better personalization of recommendations, and create routines to help people maintain their dental health over time ๐Ÿฆท
