VideaHealth: Revolutionizing the Dental Industry with AI
By Emily Melton and Lisa Xu
We are excited to lead the $40 million Series B fundraising round for VideaHealth, an AI company revolutionizing dentistry and redefining how dental practices deliver care.
Like many markets we invest in, the dental industry is on the precipice of a massive transformation, accelerated by AI and driven by long-term market forces, including the rise of dental service organizations and a generational shift in the dental workforce. We are confident that AI will inevitably and fundamentally change the dental ecosystem and that Videa will lead the charge for AI adoption.
Videa has already begun accelerating innovation across the industry and earning the trust of dental professionals along the way. The company’s FDA-approved, market-leading clinical AI product is the first dental AI product to offer insights for virtually every dental disease. By applying AI to dental images (X-rays), VideaAI dramatically improves the accuracy and efficiency of diagnoses, helping dentists avoid missing diseases and increasing their productivity in the process.
While VideaAI’s diagnostic accuracy is impressive, we found it equally compelling that Videa is a holistic AI platform that helps make the entire dental office run better, from patient education to practice efficiency — resulting in significant financial impact for dental practices. Videa’s Huddle product is used by dental teams to automatically identify the most critical treatment opportunities each day, streamlining task management and cross-team collaboration. In addition, Videa uses AI to create clear and engaging visual presentations for patients to understand proposed treatments. According to Videa customers, it has been “a game changer for patient education.”
At the heart of every exceptional company is an exceptional founder. We are incredibly excited to partner with Videa’s CEO, Florian Hillen, a founder who deeply understands both the potential of AI technology and the needs of the dental industry. As we have gotten to know Florian, we have been inspired by his fierce optimism, obsession with speed, and passion for improving the clinician and patient experience.
It’s no surprise that Florian and Videa have become the partners of choice for many of the industry's most innovative and successful companies. The company’s growth has been propelled by industry partnerships with the world’s largest dental providers and distributors, including Heartland Dental in the US, Dentalcorp in Canada, and Henry Schein, which has directly integrated Videa’s AI product into Dentrix, the leading dental practice management software.
At Threshold, we believe in backing companies that are growing and building innovative technologies with enduring value. We are honored to partner with Florian and his team and support them as they scale their impact across the dental industry. With a strong foundation and visionary leadership, Videa is well on its way to shaping the future of dental care and achieving its ambitious goal of serving one billion patients.
