Overjet—a leader in dental AI—announced a $53.2 million Series C round, the largest investment ever in artificial intelligence for dentistry. March Capital led this historic round, which also included General Catalyst, Insight Partners, E14 Fund, Crosslink Capital, Spring Rock Capital, Liquid 2 Ventures, Harmonic Growth Partners, and the American Dental Association. This brings Overjet’s total funding to about $133 million and increases the company’s valuation to $550 million.
This funding round will fuel Overjet’s mission to make dentistry patient-centric — by providing dental professionals with the AI tools they need to operate efficiently and give patients exceptional care. Launched in 2018, Overjet has already raised the standard for diagnosing diseases in X-rays, educating patients about their oral health, and reviewing dental insurance claims. The platform is the only technology cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to detect, outline, and quantify instances of oral disease with millimeter-level precision.
The Series C funding round follows a period of rapid growth for Overjet’s business. The company now serves thousands of dentists across private practices and the largest dental support organizations (DSOs) in North America. It also partners with payers that collectively cover more than 120 million members, including the majority of the 10 biggest U.S. dental insurers.
Without Overjet, different experts often reach different interpretations of the same dental X-ray – which could cause communication to break down between doctors, insurers, and patients. And patients decline about 50% of treatments that dentists recommend. However, since they do not understand the diagnosis and because they aren’t sure whether insurance will pay for it.
Overjet trains its advanced artificial intelligence on millions of cases and continually verifies its accuracy with a team of top clinical specialists. And across multiple FDA studies, almost every general dentist was more accurate in detecting cavities and calculus when using Overjet.
Overjet has become a major tool for clinicians, dental executives, administrators, and insurers. And trained professionals use Overjet to diagnose, recommend care, review claims, and efficiently run their businesses. Its AI serves to augment human judgment — not replace it. All treatment and benefits decisions continue to be made by accredited professionals.
With the Series C funding round, Overjet will continue to build first-to-market AI capabilities that eliminate friction and uncertainty for patients, at every step. And it will establish the first unified standard that connects the entire dental care ecosystem, from providers to payers to dental schools.
To fuel Overjet’s continued growth, the company added several key go-to-market executive leaders, supplementing its already best-in-class clinical and technology teams. And these include Mike Lemire, VP of Customer Success for Practice, Mario Paganini, SVP of Marketing, and most recently, Matthew Ewing, SVP of Revenue.
