Prevention Is Dentistry’s Biggest Untapped Infrastructure LayerEpisode DescriptionPrevention is dentistry’s stated priority.But structurally, most dental organisations still run on treatment.Appointments, procedures, and production targets dominate clinical workflows, while the behaviours that actually determine oral health happen outside the clinic.In this episode of the TechDental Podcast, Dr. Randeep sits down with Mika Malinen, CEO of DentView, to explore prevention through a systems lens.Rather than framing prevention as patient education, this conversation examines it as an operational challenge for modern dental organisations.DentView is an AI-powered preventive workflow platform designed to automate patient interviews, scale self-care education, and convert behavioural insights into actionable clinical and operational signals. mika-theTopics covered include:• Why prevention struggles to scale inside traditional dental workflows • The role of behavioural data in oral health outcomes • How AI can extend prevention beyond chair time • Why DSOs struggle to standardise prevention across clinics • How behavioural insights can influence revenue and treatment acceptance • Why prevention may become a new operational layer in dentistryThis episode explores how prevention may evolve from a clinical aspiration into a measurable system operating across entire patient populations.GuestMika MalinenCEO, DentViewConnect with Mika:https://www.linkedin.com/in/mika-malinen-3424558b/Company:https://dentview.ai/Company Linkedin:https://www.linkedin.com/company/dentviewHostDr. Randeep Singh GillFounder, TechDentalLinkedin https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-randeep-singh-gill-576580357Websitewww.techdental.comEmail [email protected]
