Pearl AI to Enhance DECA Clinical Care

---

Pearl, the global leader in dental AI solutions, recently announced that DECA Dental Group has chosen Pearl as its exclusive dental AI partner. DECA, known for empowering its clinicians to deliver quality, cutting-edge dental care to every patient, is rolling out Pearl to its supported clinics across nine states. DECA’s decision follows a successful pilot study that demonstrated measurable improvements in case acceptance by helping clinicians present findings more clearly through AI-visualized radiographs. Pearl generated a significant early return on investment in the study, unlocking meaningful potential revenue across the organization. By turning often subtle clinical findings into intuitive visuals, Pearl bridges the gap between diagnosis and delivered care, making treatment easier to explain and therefore easier for patients to understand and accept.

Through this deployment, DECA clinicians gain access to Pearl’s FDA-cleared radiologic AI directly within the systems they already use each day. Pearl is the only dental AI solution that writes AI findings directly into a practice management software, enabling real-time insights, clearer documentation, and enterprise-wide visibility without disrupting clinical workflows or requiring clinicians to switch platforms.

“As a clinician-led organization, our responsibility is to listen to our doctors’ needs and ensure they have the best tools on the market to unlock confident, consistent diagnosis. We all know clinicians’ days are incredibly busy, and easing the barrier to technology adoption is essential. Pearl is embedded in DECA’s practice management system, meaning it accompanies our clinicians throughout their days, in their existing workflows, and in their current platforms of choice,” said Dr. Matthew Doan, Vice President of Clinical Training and Development at DECA Dental Group. “Each of our clinicians cares deeply about clinical excellence, and Pearl allows us to support their goals while preserving clinical autonomy, helping our teams deliver better outcomes for patients every day. We know having always-on AI insights at their fingertips is going to be a huge help as clinicians go about their days, and we’re excited to deploy Pearl organization-wide.”

Pearl ensures that clinical insights appear at the point of care, where they can be acted on immediately. With Pearl, AI findings become part of the clinical record, supporting clearer communication, stronger documentation, and more consistent standards of care across the organization. As clinicians go about their day, prepare for clients, and review charts, Pearl’s insights are constantly available, ingraining AI into modern workflows that benefit patient outcomes and clinical efficiency.

“When DSOs evaluate AI today, the question is no longer whether it can benefit their clinicians, practices, and patients. The question today is how well AI fits into the reality of clinical practices at scale,” said Ophir Tanz, Founder and CEO of Pearl. “DECA’s decision to deploy Pearl reflects a thoughtful approach to adoption. By bringing AI insights directly into the clinical environment through the existing PMS, teams can make better decisions, maintain visibility across locations, and trust AI as a dependable part of everyday care rather than a separate tool clinicians have to add to their workflows.”

This partnership reflects a shared belief between Pearl and DECA Dental Group that AI elevates clinical confidence, protects providers, and ensures patients receive a consistent, high standard of care regardless of location. With Pearl, DECA is positioning its organization at the forefront of modern, technology-enabled dentistry, where AI supports clinicians quietly, reliably, and scalably.
