AI dental simulation software is becoming one of the most important tools in modern cosmetic dentistry.
But not all dental AI simulation software is built the same.
Many existing cosmetic simulation tools are:
Let’s break down the leading options and how they compare.
Best for: Real-time chairside smile simulation and high adoption
SmileViz is AI-powered dental simulation software built specifically for chairside case acceptance.
Unlike traditional lab-style cosmetic tools, SmileViz:
Why It Stands Out
Most tools are built like design software.
SmileViz is built like a conversion tool.
Instead of:
Take photo → Send to lab → Wait → Follow up later
You get:
Take photo → Generate simulation → Show patient instantly → Present treatment
That speed dramatically increases case acceptance.
And because it is simple and intuitive, adoption across the team is high.
Workflow: Delayed simulation
PreVu works by:
The problem?
The patient is no longer in the chair.
Momentum is lost.
Case acceptance drops significantly when visualization happens after the consult.
PreVu may be useful for follow-up discussions, but it is not optimized for real-time chairside conversion.
Speed matters in dentistry.
Status: Pre-revenue, early stage
Clara AI is an upcoming dental AI simulation tool.
Current challenges reported:
When accuracy is questionable, dentist trust drops.
And if it cannot integrate seamlessly into daily workflow, adoption suffers.
AI tools must be practical, not theoretical.
Launched recently
Bitebot entered the market recently and claims AI-based simulation.
Current concerns:
User experience matters.
If a tool feels clunky or slow, your team will not use it consistently.
And inconsistent usage means inconsistent case acceptance impact.
Adoption is everything.
Built-in scanner simulations
Some scanners like iTero and TRIOS include built-in simulation tools.
The reality:
Scanner simulations were not designed as dedicated AI visualization tools.
They function more as marketing add-ons than serious case acceptance drivers.
If patients cannot emotionally connect to the simulation, it will not increase acceptance meaningfully.
When evaluating dental AI simulation software, focus on:
Does it generate results instantly while the patient is in the chair?
Does the output look realistic and believable?
Is patient data protected properly?
Many tools claim compliance without clear infrastructure.
Can assistants or hygienists run it easily?
Or does it require special training and design skill?
If your team does not use it consistently, ROI disappears.
The biggest mistake in cosmetic dentistry is losing momentum.
When visualization is delayed:
Real-time simulation changes that.
SmileViz was designed specifically for chairside use.
Take photo.
Generate simulation.
Present immediately.
That flow increases:
And because it is simple enough for the entire team to use, it becomes part of everyday workflow, not a special event tool.
Many dental AI simulation tools today are:
If your goal is to increase case acceptance consistently, speed and usability matter.
SmileViz stands out because it:
AI simulation only works if it is used daily.
Daily usage increases conversion.
Conversion increases production.
