SmileFy’s New Dental Visualization Software Teams With Sony Electronics' Spatial Reality Display

Described as a solution to enable dental professionals to plan and visualize for patients' esthetic or restorative procedures with more accuracy prior to beginning treatment, SmileFy Inc has introduced a collaborative piece of software designed to be used exclusively in conjunction with Sony's award-winning 3D product, the Spatial Reality Display (SR Display).

Use of the SmileFy App on Sony's SR Display will allow clinicians to easily display a highly realistic 3D model of their patient's head by combining views from digital patient files, such as CBCTs, digital impressions and 3D facial scans, to visualize the design and expected outcome of procedures in an immersive 3D environment—without special glasses or a headset.

"In the cosmetic dental industry, we know visualization is key for both clinicians and their patients," says Nick Colsey, VP of Business Development at Sony Electronics Inc. "We are excited to work with SmileFy to create a solution that creates a seamless and highly effective process for realistic procedure and outcome visualization."

Viewing the three-dimensional digital mockup and model on the SR Display is expected to reduce patient "chair time" and allow clinicians to lead to more efficient "try-in" appointments with patients, with minimal adjustments.

"This collaboration with Sony is so special because we've been able to leverage the technology in the SR Display to offer a unique experience for both dental clinicians and their patients," says Ralph Georg, founder and CEO of SmileFy. "Sony's SR Display really brings the 'digital patient' to life, just as we once envisioned it. It's powerful to be able to present and actually show treatments to patients in real-time while using the digital patient to educate them in the process."

SmileFy's Gold Plan subscription option will include the software needed to display the patient's digital doppelgänger and treatment on the Spatial Reality Display.

SmileFy Inc develops technologies for dental professionals to improve treatment planning and deliver final restorations in a predictable and cost-efficient way. The company is driving digitalization in dentistry to improve patient care and experience.
