An AI-Assisted Approach to Building Your Conflict Skills: Dina Lynch Eisenberg, Founder of Talkola

Regular listeners to Filling You In with A-Squared have heard many of our guests discuss the increasing presence of artificial intelligence in dentistry, but the focus has mainly been on its use for improving patient flow and operational efficiency.  Today, we want to look at AI’s role in patient care, including the development and approval of treatment plans. For that, we turn to Dr. Wardah Inam, the Co-Founder and CEO of Overjet, a leading provider of AI technology for the dental industry, which in just a few years has already had an impact on making dentistry more clinically precise and patient-focused. As Dr. Inam tells hosts Dr. Anushka Gaglani and Dr. Abhishek Nagaraj of Areo Dental Group, AI-enhanced images produced by Overjet can increase patient comprehension. “People don't understand how to read x-rays, so having a tool that can put colors and annotations and markups on it and bring that x-ray more to life can communicate the diagnosis more effectively with patients.”This engaging conversation with Dr. Inam – who has been ranked among the 32 most influential people in dentistry and listed by Inc. Magazine as a Top 100 Female Founder – also covers:<ul><li>Overjet’s role in smoothing out interactions with insurance plans</li><li>How dental schools are using Overjet’s technology</li><li>Varying acceptance of AI technology among dentists</li></ul>Mentioned in this episode: <a href="https://www.overjet.com/">Overjet AI</a><a href="http://www.areodental.com/">Areo Dental Group</a>
