Pearl Brings Dental AI Natively into Dentrix Ascend

Integration delivers Pearl’s best-in-class diagnostic AI directly inside Henry Schein One’s cloud-based dental technology platform, eliminating workflow friction and workarounds

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Pearl, the global leader in dental AI solutions, today announced a native integration with Dentrix Ascend, the cloud-based dental technology platform from Henry Schein One. Pearl surfaces real-time pathology findings as x-rays are captured, without clinicians ever leaving the Dentrix Ascend platform.

Dental AI at the point of care has long been held back by fragmented workflows. Switching between platforms, importing images manually, and reconciling findings across systems adds friction that slows clinical teams and dilutes the value of AI. Native integration entirely eliminates that friction.

“The best AI in dentistry should take work off the clinician - not add to it,” said Ophir Tanz, Founder and CEO of Pearl. “This integration puts Pearl directly into the workflows practices already rely on, working in real time to reduce friction, eliminate guesswork, and free dentists to focus on patient care.”

For clinical teams, the experience is seamless. As radiographs are captured in Dentrix Ascend, Pearl identifies and displays findings including decay, bone loss, root absences, calculus, and other pathologies within the Dentrix Ascend interface. No separate login. No parallel window. No manual export. The integration puts AI at the point of care, surfacing findings that support clinician judgment.

“This integration reflects a shift toward an open dental technology ecosystem where clinicians can choose the tools that serve them best, and where workflows ensure streamlined dental AI access at the point of care,” noted Erica Zerante, VP of Partnerships at Pearl.

Pearl has deployed AI across radiographic analysis, clinical documentation, and revenue cycle workflows, giving practices integrated AI infrastructure that connects diagnosis to downstream operations. The Dentrix Ascend integration extends that infrastructure to one of dentistry’s most popular cloud dental technology platforms, making high-performance AI accessible to a significant new segment of the market.

The integration will be available for all Dentrix Ascend users in the coming weeks. Practices can learn more and activate Pearl’s integration through their Dentrix Ascend account or by visiting hellopearl.com/demo.
