BOSTON-- Overjet, a leader in dental artificial intelligence solutions for providers and payers, today announced a partnership with Seattle Study Club (SSC), a recognized leader in continuing dental education with the largest network of dental professionals. Since 1994, Seattle Study Club has equipped its members with industry-leading resources and knowledge to thrive in the rapidly changing dental market and to deliver the best patient care possible.

The partnership comes at a key moment when dentistry is in the midst of a foundational transformation. Innovations in advanced technologies such as AI are reshaping many aspects of dental practice, from clinical decision-making to doctor-patient communication.
"There are times in our practice life when it appears a sea change is going to occur and the advancements in artificial intelligence appear to be one of these changes," said Dr. Parag Kachalia, DDS, Director of Educational Development and Industry Relations for Seattle Study Club. "Artificial intelligence should not be viewed as a threat; rather AI is going to be a virtual colleague that helps our diagnostic ability. Seattle Study Club has always focused on proper diagnosis and Overjet's innovations greatly aid in this arena. In addition, a key reason Seattle Study Club has decided to partner with Overjet is because the company is creating solutions that allow proper diagnosis in conjunction with appropriate reimbursement for the care clinicians provide."
Guided by patient-centric AI, Overjet's FDA-cleared technology integrates with major practice management and imaging systems to guide clinicians to arrive at precise and accurate diagnostic decisions.
