PROJECT

A high-fidelity software concept prototype developed in Figma using a structured Design Thinking process. It digitalizes the dental examination workflow by integrating modern digital solutions into the dentist's routine. The result is a more efficient examination process and increased patient trust through greater visual transparency.

CHALLENGE

Developing a concept that integrates seamlessly into the existing dental workflow without requiring major restructuring or reliance on cumbersome input methods such as voice control. Based on user interviews and in-depth target group analysis, it was additionally researched how to strengthen patient trust and ensure that new technology enhances rather than disrupts the examination experience.

SOLUTION

A user-centered, modern UI designed to fit naturally into the dentist's routine. The interface integrates an AI-supported intraoral scanner that detects abnormalities invisible to the human eye, flagging them for the dentist's review — keeping the doctor in full control while the AI serves purely as a supporting tool. A near-photorealistic 3D scan of the oral cavity allows dentist and patient to review findings together intuitively, fostering transparency and trust.
