Smilo.ai is an AI-powered oral health platform that transforms smartphones into screening tools for early detection, remote monitoring, and digital consultations, connecting patients with dentists for accessible, preventive oral care.
Smilo.ai is an AI-driven digital health platform that enables automated oral health screening and remote monitoring using smartphone technology. By leveraging deep convolutional neural networks, the system analyzes standardized digital oral photographs submitted by users to detect and classify common oral conditions, such as dental decay, gingivitis, plaque, calculus, tooth wear, discoloration, and crowding. The platform functions through a smartphone app for users and a web interface for dental professionals, aiming to provide accessible, early-stage risk assessment and facilitate virtual consultations between patients and dentists.
The technology is designed to bridge gaps in oral healthcare by reducing barriers related to workforce shortages, travel, and dental anxiety. It serves as a pre-screening tool that provides personalized health reports and recommendations, helping users engage with preventive care while optimizing patient flow for dental practices. Smilo.ai has participated in nationally funded research initiatives, including programs focused on improving oral health for older adults in aged care and individuals living with diabetes, and continues to undergo analytical validation studies to refine its diagnostic performance and clinical utility.
