Planet DDS Launches AI Voice Perio

---

Planet DDS recently announced the launch of AI Voice Perio, the first voice-powered periodontal charting system built within Denticon. Designed specifically for DSOs and multi-location dental groups, this hands-free, voice-activated solution addresses a critical operational challenge: ensuring consistent, reliable perio data across locations without introducing fragmentation or operational overhead as organizations scale.

AI Voice Perio captures periodontal measurements in real time during the exam, eliminating the need for manual data entry and reducing interruptions. The system records voice commands directly into Denticon’s perio fields, ensuring reliable, consistent data that is automatically stored in patient records.

“Scaling clinical operations without losing consistency is one of the hardest challenges DSOs face,” said Eric Giesecke, CEO of Planet DDS. “AI Voice Perio simplifies periodontal exams for clinicians and helps organizations capture consistent, reliable data as they grow. This gives clinical leaders standardized perio data they can trust for clinical oversight, training, and compliance.”

The Future of Periodontal Exams

By using a standardized, voice-driven structure, AI Voice Perio ensures that exams are performed the same way each time, regardless of location or clinician. This results in comparable data over time, allowing DSOs to confidently build patient histories, track clinical trends, and maintain high-quality records as their practices grow.

Key Features of AI Voice Perio:

• Voice-activated charting: Hygienists speak directly into Denticon’s system to record measurements, eliminating the need for manual typing or data entry.
• Built into Denticon: AI Voice Perio operates directly in Denticon’s clinical data model, ensuring consistency and governance without added reconciliation.
• Real-time corrections: Hygienists can make voice corrections during exams without interrupting the flow of the appointment.
• Standardized data capture: Ensures consistency in periodontal charting across practices, eliminating discrepancies caused by individual clinician preferences.
• Oral Health Report Cards: Results are saved in the patient record, providing longitudinal visibility into periodontal health.

How AI Voice Perio Benefits DSOs

DSOs and multi-location practices across the country are already experiencing the benefits of AI Voice Perio, with improved efficiency and consistency in their periodontal exams.

“The feedback we’ve received on AI Voice Perio has been extremely positive. Adoption has been straightforward, and it makes periodontal exams easier,” said Etta Bourne, Vice President of System Integrations at Dental365. “It simplifies the workflow, allows hygienists to work more independently, and keeps everything in one system so they can stay focused on the patient instead of the process.”

AI Voice Perio is now available to Denticon customers. Throughout 2026, Planet DDS will continue expanding its AI-powered clinical capabilities while working with partners across the DentalOS™ ecosystem to reduce operational complexity and improve care consistency as dental organizations scale.
