Software of Excellence partners with Second Opinion AI to become one of the first Practice Management System Providers to Deliver Dental Artificial Intelligence to the UK and Asia-Pacific Markets

This groundbreaking partnership expands access to one of dentistry’s most advanced dental artificial intelligence technology for practices across Australia, Ireland, New Zealand and the UK.

Second Opinion AI, a global leader in dental AI solutions, today announced that Software of Excellence, a leader in dental software, has selected Second Opinion AI as its new, exclusive dental artificial intelligence (AI) provider. Through the partnership, Software of Excellence will distribute Pearl’s Second Opinion® as a standalone software to its customer base across Australia, Ireland, New Zealand, and the UK markets, as well as offer native access to Second Opinion's AI’s radiologic capabilities within Software of Excellence’s leading practice management system (PMS), EXACT.

Second Opinion's AI feature set will be natively integrated with the imaging modals of EXACT, one of the market's top practice management dental software solutions in Australia, Ireland, New Zealand, and the UK trusted by almost 6,000 customers for over 30 years. EXACT’s imaging feature set is currently supplied by Examine Pro, the UK's dominant imaging platform.

Second Opinion AI is a pioneering chairside AI software with global regulatory clearances to help dentists detect numerous conditions commonly diagnosed in dental X-rays.
