Visionnaire professionals developed a system that generates dental treatment forecasts using AI

Client
Dent.AI

Area
Dentistry

Summarized Problem
Dent.AI needed analysis, refinement, specification, and development of an advanced system that uses Artificial Intelligence to generate forecasts of clinical and aesthetic treatment results.

Summarized Solution
Visionnaire, through Outsourcing of specialized professionals, developed a solution that uses AI to generate treatment forecasts in seconds, benefiting both professionals and patients.

Results
One of the benefits provided by Outsourcing is the ability for contracting companies to focus on their core activities while specialized tasks like IT, software development, or technical support, are outsourced to experts.

Thus, with the team assembled by Visionnaire, Dent.AI was able to rely on specialized professionals who managed the work of system analysis, refinement, and specification, followed by system development after specifications were defined.

In summary, Visionnaire provided Dent.AI with increased productivity while reducing costs through a highly specialized software development team focused on delivery with agile processes and cloud-based operations, using Scrum and weekly Sprints.

The result is an advanced solution that uses modern Artificial Intelligence technologies and provides results in seconds, benefiting professionals, patients, and clients alike.

Technologies
Visionnaire has always worked with innovative technologies and follows the main technological trends of Silicon Valley. This project was particularly challenging, as it required the use of recent technologies, evolutionary improvements, and the development/maintenance of systems. Before this project, we had already worked with technologies like those used in Dent.AI in other Artificial Intelligence projects.

Projects involving AI, although simple to develop, are quite complex. From a technical software development perspective, such projects require professionals with great expertise in AI, combining advanced programming skills with deep knowledge of statistics and mathematics, especially in a scenario where these specialists are highly sought after.

For this specific project, the Diffusers package was used to manipulate the models to generate new images. StableDiffusion, a deep learning model for text-to-image transformation, was also used. The Kohya SS User Interface (UI) was used to train the models based on a dataset of images. We also used the LoRa technique to efficiently adjust large language models for new tasks. The mask generation was handled by the YOLOv8 technology, while the OpenCV library was used to adjust the teeth colors, based on the Vita scale.

Detailed Problem
Dent.AI is a Brazilian company that creates and develops innovations and technological solutions for dentistry. For professionals in the field, Dent.AI offers AI tools that simplify sales, optimize time, and increase profitability; for patients and clients, the company aims to enhance their experiences with realistic forecasts.

Dent.AI turned to Visionnaire for system analysis, refinement, and specification work, followed by system development after the specifications were set. It is a solution that “transforms” smiles in seconds, generating forecasts of clinical and aesthetic treatment results. As it was a solution using Artificial Intelligence, it was necessary to rely on highly specialized professionals in modern technologies, many of them still emerging.

Detailed Solution
Outsourcing is the practice of hiring external companies to perform activities or processes that would traditionally be done internally. This allows companies to focus on their core activities while specialized tasks like IT, software development, or technical support, are outsourced to specialists. Visionnaire conducted the project for Dent.AI using the outsourcing model, i.e., we assembled a team of highly specialized professionals for the specific needs of Dent.AI.

In this specific case, the team assembled by Visionnaire took on the work of system analysis, refinement, and specification, followed by system development after the specifications were set.

During the first phase, system analysis, refinement, and specification addressed important aspects such as identifying, documenting, and validating the needs and expectations regarding the system under development. Thus, all relevant requirements were addressed and understood by everyone involved before the development phase began.

The subsequent development phase resulted in a solution that generates treatment forecasts in seconds, benefiting professionals, who gained an excellent sales tool, and patients, who gain more confidence from a realistic treatment forecast.
