via Business Wire

P4D sees 35% increase in newly identified dentistry, 44% boost in newly diagnosed procedures, and nearly $30M in previously untreated patient needs following Pearl integration

Pearl, the global leader in dental AI solutions, and Partnerships for Dentists (“P4D”), a leading dental support organization serving practices across the United States, today announced some of the results of the years-long partnership that brings Pearl’s powerful dental AI technology to P4D’s multi-state network of dental practices. The integration is live across three different imaging systems in use by P4D, demonstrating the seamless compatibility of Pearl’s platform with leading imaging technologies on the market.

“Partnering with Pearl has been transformational for our providers and the patients they serve,” said Dr. Greg Kerbel, Chief Clinical Officer at Partnerships for Dentists. “By integrating Second Opinion® across our imaging systems, we’ve equipped our dentists with state-of-the-art AI that sharpens diagnostic accuracy, boosts efficiency, and elevates confidence. In just months, we’ve seen a 35% increase in newly identified dentistry and uncovered nearly $30 million in previously untreated patient needs. This partnership strengthens our commitment to providing exceptional, modern care at every practice in our network.”

Pearl’s Second Opinion® software is the first-and-only AI radiologic aid cleared for use in over 120 countries. Purpose-built for the realities of modern dental practice—whether in small family-run offices or expansive DSOs—Pearl’s platform integrates seamlessly with existing imaging software to deliver real-time AI findings that support accurate diagnosis, drive case acceptance, and enhance patient communication. With tools like visual tooth-part mapping and vibrant pathology indicators, Second Opinion® is designed to make oral health more understandable for patients and more actionable for providers.

“P4D empowers practices to grow independently by giving dentists access to tools they can rely on,” said McKenzie Fagan, Vice President of DSO Sales at Pearl. “We’re proud to partner with P4D to deliver real-time AI insights without disrupting their imaging workflows, and to help their providers do what they do best: deliver great patient care with confidence and consistency.”

P4D’s integration of Pearl’s AI platform has already delivered measurable results. Practices using Pearl saw a 35% increase in newly identified dentistry and a 44% boost in newly diagnosed procedures. Through Pearl’s Practice Intelligence®, automated chart audits surfaced nearly $30 million in previously untreated patient needs that have since been acted on, unlocking growth for P4D practices and better health outcomes for patients.
