AuraDent
Dental chart reconciliation and evidence traceability
Every dental chart change should show its evidence.
Dental records can draw from prior charts, current findings, transferred data, and AI-assisted tools. AuraDent is being designed to turn those sources into a focused change set that a qualified clinician can review before anything reaches the official record.
Concept-stage. No patient data is collected through this website.
Sources
Review queue
Approved
AuraDent is not currently a cleared or clinically available diagnostic product. Intended use and regulatory status remain under review.
Why this workflow matters now
Dental AI can generate more findings. The record still needs governed review.
FDA-cleared dental radiographic AI products exist, and current vendors increasingly combine detection, charting, voice documentation, and patient education. That progress makes a new question more important: how does a source or suggestion become an approved chart change with visible accountability?
More sources
Prior records, images, notes, migrations, and AI-assisted findings can influence the chart.
More workflow automation
Automation can reduce repetitive work, but it can also make provenance and review less visible.
More need for trust
Clinical teams need to separate source evidence, system proposals, clinician decisions, and final exports.
AuraDent's proposed focus
Third-party product references are based on public materials and do not imply partnership.
A fragmented change process
The final chart may not reveal the path that produced it.
A reviewer may need to compare an existing odontogram, transferred records, current approved findings, and other documentation before deciding what should change. The work can be difficult to standardize, especially during new-patient baselines, practice migrations, and multi-site quality review.
Chart Record
Before and after AuraDent's proposed reconciliation
Before — scattered evidence
Disconnected sources
After — evidence-linked changes
Source-linked, reviewed
Evidence note
ADA guidance emphasizes complete, accurate, consistent documentation and appropriate chart auditing.
The frequency and economic cost of this problem in the target segment are still being validated.
A focused initial wedge
Begin with trigger events where reconciliation is visible and owned.
AuraDent is not attempting to redesign every dental visit. Initial beta research is focused on bounded workflows with a clear owner and measurable baseline.
New-patient baseline
Align prior chart data with current clinician-approved findings.
Practice migration or acquisition
Review transformed or transferred chart data before it becomes the new operational baseline.
Multi-site quality review
Create a consistent review process across locations.
Dental-school clinic
Make supervision, source evidence, and review decisions more visible.
The beta program will select one use case, not all four.
The proposed approach
Turn fragmented evidence into a clinician-reviewed change set.
AuraDent would normalize existing chart data and approved findings, identify meaningful differences, and show the source behind every proposed change. A qualified reviewer would accept, edit, reject, or defer each item before an export is created.
Import and normalize
Bring one approved chart export and one structured finding source into a consistent schema while preserving origin.
Compare and focus
Surface additions, conflicts, missing mappings, and unresolved items.
Review with evidence
Keep source references visible beside each proposed change.
Preserve accountability
Record reviewer, status, rationale, and timestamp.
Export approved changes
Create an audit-ready PDF or CSV before any future production integration.
Explain approved information
Create patient-friendly language from clinician-approved entries only.
These capabilities are proposed. No diagnostic analysis or PMS write-back is available through this website.
Illustrative product concept
Review the change-not the entire record from scratch.
Tooth 30 - existing crown
Current chart: No restoration recorded
Tooth 19 - surface mapping conflict
Current chart: MOD filling
The interface concept keeps the current value, proposed value, source, and reviewer action in one place. It is not a diagnostic result and does not represent a real patient.
Human control by design
Source, suggestion, decision, and final output stay separate.
The first design principle is not "one-click automation." It is visible responsibility. AuraDent is intended to preserve the difference between what a source says, what the system proposes, what a clinician decides, and what is ultimately exported.
Source
Original evidence and findings
Proposed change
System-identified difference
Clinician decision
Human review and action
Approved output
Verified export or summary
No silent chart update.
No patient-facing statement from unapproved data.
Source visible behind material changes.
Uncertainty remains visible.
Qualified reviewer remains responsible.
Audit history records decisions.
Data collection is limited to the agreed purpose.
Human review does not automatically determine regulatory classification. Intended use must be assessed with qualified counsel.
A controlled first test
Eight weeks to test the workflow-not to deploy autonomous diagnosis.
The proposed beta uses approved historical cases and one defined chart-reconciliation workflow. It is designed to determine whether AuraDent reduces review burden or improves discrepancy resolution enough to justify a larger clinical and regulatory program.
Beta includes
- Current-state workflow mapping.
- One approved data format.
- 50-150 retrospective cases, subject to governance.
- Source-linked discrepancy review prototype.
- PDF and CSV reconciliation export.
- Baseline-versus-beta analysis.
- Final go / no-go recommendation.
Beta excludes
- Autonomous diagnosis.
- Public image uploads.
- Automatic production write-back.
- Treatment recommendations.
- Consumer access.
The website does not collect patient data. Beta requires separate agreements, security review, and approved data handling.
A narrower position
Not another detector. Not a PMS replacement.
Current dental AI vendors already offer detection, automated charting, voice documentation, patient communication, and workflow features. AuraDent's proposed focus is the governed handoff across sources: a reviewable change set with provenance before the official record is updated.
Dental AI detector
Typical scope
Generates or highlights specified findings.
AuraDent's focus
Reconcile approved findings with existing chart data.
Practice-management system
Typical scope
Stores the official record and supports practice operations.
AuraDent's focus
Provide a controlled review process before export.
Manual checklist
Typical scope
Flexible and familiar.
AuraDent's focus
Make discrepancies and sources structured and traceable.
Patient education tool
Typical scope
Explains findings.
AuraDent's focus
Derive explanations only from clinician-approved entries.
Product capabilities and competitor details can change. Third-party names do not imply partnership.
