Welcome to Product Bites, a weekly podcast from Dental Products Report, providing you with a rundown of recently launched and updated dental technologies, materials, instruments and everything else you might use with patients or while running your practice.

I'm your host for this week, DPR editorial director Noah Levine, and on this week's podcast, we've got a trio of new products as we'll be covering the new launches from Premier Dental, Denti.AI, and ClearCorrect. So let's get to it and learn about these newly launched dental products.

First up, Premier Dental recently announced the availability of Two Striper Perforated Diamond Finishing Strips. These finishing strips are designed to assist in debris removal during interproximal reduction, shaping and contouring. They come in two versions, one with an uncoated safe center for easy access through the contact point, and another with a serrated center to facilitate access in tight spaces between teeth. These handheld autoclavable stainless steel finishing instruments are available in various widths and grits to suit different clinical needs.

Denti.AI recently received FDA 510(k) for Denti.AI detect, an artificial intelligence-powered imaging solution that can analyze both intraoral and extraoral radiographs, including the industry's first clearance for AI analysis of panoramic images. The software is designed to identify common dental diseases, such as caries, periapical lesions and bone loss. Clinical Studies featuring the participation of more than two dozen dentists showed a 26% increase in treatment opportunities based on using Denti.AI detect. This new solution also integrates seamlessly with the company's Auto-Chart platform to simplify disease charting and treatment plan coding.

Finally, clear aligner solutions provider ClearCorrect has unveiled a series of innovations to expand orthodontic treatment options. These updates include enhancements to the Premier Aligner, Digital Workflow and practice growth offerings. Among the new clinical features are posterior bite ramps for cross bit cases, and an updated engager template featuring a thinner and more flexible material and a low flat trim line for more efficient and precise engager placement. ClearPilot 7.0 provides clinicians with more control over their treatment plans and includes features designed to make a more efficient treatment planning experience. It uses visualization tools like bite jump simulation, advanced editing tools for arch adjustment, additional ClearControl clinical feature controls, and user interface improvements to simplify building and evaluating treatment plans. Additionally, ClearCorrect is now offering a Practice Growth Package, which includes marketing, education, and business resources for clinicians looking to grow their practice and confidently treat a wider range of orthodontic patients.
