VideaHealth launches Voice Notes to automate dental documentation with ambient AI
Built on the VideaAI platform trained on over one billion dental images, Voice Notes extends VideaHealth’s capabilities from visual diagnosis to conversational documentation, setting a new benchmark for smart, connected dental workflows. “Every hour spent writing clinical notes, whether during appointments or late at night, is time taken away from patient care and is a leading cause of burnout,” said Florian Hillen, CEO and founder of VideaHealth. “That burden has been accepted as part of the job for too long, even as dentistry becomes increasingly demanding and data-driven. Voice Notes is pioneering a new level of intelligence in dentistry, automating documentation through ambient AI, ultimately strengthening clinical records and restoring the patient connection at the heart of dentistry.” Voice Notes is available immediately as a standalone solution or as part of VideaAI Clinical Assist for integrated imaging and documentation.
Designed specifically for the operating room, it captures clinically relevant details through ambient listening, filters out non-essential conversations, and organizes information by complaints, findings, assessment, and treatment plan so that complete, compliant documentation can be written to the PMS in seconds. Smart Ambient Mode records multi-speaker dialogue between provider and patient, while Quick Dictation Mode captures the provider’s fluent speech. Custom templates adapt to each provider’s preferred note style and can be configured by specialty, physician, or location, with PMS integration allowing for one-click review after each appointment or batch upload at the end of the day.
Voice Notes eliminates manual note entry to save more than ten hours per provider each week and can generate up to $117,000 in additional annual revenue per dentist through increased clinical efficiency, achieving 95 percent complete clinical notes on the first pass, while improving the patient experience through more direct engagement and less screen time. Fully HIPAA compliant, it incorporates click-to-activate consent, recording, and encryption of PHI, giving providers full control over when the system listens while maintaining privacy and defensible documentation. The launch marks VideaHealth’s entry into ambient AI, laying the foundation for continued innovation to automate time-consuming and error-prone tasks across the entire dental workflow.
