Description

We’re at the AI4 Conference with VJ, founder of 21D (21st Century Dentistry) — and the numbers he shares are hard to ignore. VJ explains how full-mouth restoration used to take months, multiple surgical visits, and complicated steps — but with modern workflows and AI-driven planning, it can now be done in about 2 hours with precision down to 10 microns. He breaks down how their system uses CT scans, intraoral scans, and 3D face scans to build a complete digital model, run biomechanics calculations, and show patients exactly what’s happening, what’s possible, and why — in a way that reduces fear and increases transparency. We also get into the bigger mission: making this care more accessible, expanding into the U.S., and using AI to shift healthcare toward early diagnostics and prevention, not surprise treatment. What You’ll Learn 🦷 How full-mouth restoration can be planned and delivered faster than traditional workflows 🧠 How AI reduces fear by making the process transparent and understandable 🖥️ How CT scans + intraoral scans + face scans create a full 3D model 📏 What “10-micron precision” means in real clinical planning 📲 How patients can review their plan and ask questions from home 🏭 How 3D printing + milling makes “on-demand” production possible 💸 Why pricing varies so widely across countries — and what can change it 🧩 Why VJ sees this as a medical procedure, not a cosmetic one ❤️ How oral health connects to whole-body outcomes and quality of life 🔍 Why prevention and early diagnostics should be the real focus Chapters (Timestamps) 0:00 — The shocking stats: millions living with tooth loss 0:31 — Meet VJ + why 21D exists 1:16 — Full-mouth restoration in ~2 hours (what happens) 2:02 — Prosthetics vs veneers (what’s actually being replaced) 2:31 — How AI planning works (CT + intraoral + face scan) 3:44 — Patients can explore their 3D plan on their phone 4:23 — Manufacturing on demand: printers + milling machines 6:19 — Why the U.S. pricing is so high (and his plan to change it) 10:08 — Transparency: why people don’t trust dentists 12:55 — Why this work changes lives (hope, health, confidence) 🎙️ APPLY OR CONNECT 👉 Apply to be on the podcast: https://www.digitalsocialhour.com/application 📩 Business inquiries / sponsors: [email protected] 👤 GUEST: VJ - https://www.instagram.com/21dofficial_/ 💼 SPONSORS QUINCE: https://quince.com/dsh 🥗 Fuel your health with Viome: https://buy.viome.com/SEAN Use code “Sean” at checkout for a discount! 🎧 LISTEN ON 🍏 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/digital-social-hour/id1676846015 🎵 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5Jn7LXarRlI8Hc0GtTn759 📸 Sean Kelly Instagram: @seanmikekelly ⚠️ DISCLAIMER The views and opinions expressed by guests on Digital Social Hour are solely those of the individuals appearing on the podcast and do not necessarily reflect the views or opinions of the host, Sean Kelly, or the Digital Social Hour team.
