Orthodontic treatment asks a patient to commit money and months to an outcome they cannot see. That uncertainty is the single biggest reason people who want treatment never start it.

Smile Review A.I, part of the Nova Capital Holdings group, is building tools that let a practice capture a case, model the treatment plan and show the patient a realistic preview of the outcome in the same appointment.

From scan to plan

The software works from clinical imaging, not marketing renders. It supports the clinician in staging tooth movement, flagging cases that fall outside aligner scope, and producing documentation that can be reviewed and adjusted before anything is manufactured.

The clinician makes the decision. The software makes the decision visible.

Consent that is actually informed

A patient who can see a modelled before-and-after understands what is being proposed, what it will not fix, and how long it takes. Consent conversations get shorter and honest at the same time.

Monitoring between visits

Treatment drifts when aligners are not worn as planned. Remote check-ins let a practice see progress between appointments and intervene early rather than at the next six-week review.

Built for African practices

The product is designed for the realities of practices across the continent: variable connectivity, mixed imaging hardware, and pricing that a mid-sized clinic can justify. Clinical oversight remains with the dentist at every step.

Smile Review A.I is in active development with clinical partners. No treatment claims are made ahead of that work.
