The new tool, Pearl Voice, is designed to capture and transcribe patient conversations into structured clinical notes.
Pearl has announced Pearl Voice, an artificial intelligence assistant developed to automate clinical documentation for dental practices. The system is designed to capture and transcribe doctor-patient interactions during appointments, converting them into structured formats such as SOAP notes and periodontal charts for real-time record keeping.
System Automates Note-Taking and Charting
Pearl Voice uses ambient listening to turn chairside conversations into structured clinical notes, aiming to reduce the administrative workload on clinicians. According to the company, the tool allows dentists to focus on patient care while ensuring clinical records are complete and ready for integration into practice management systems (PMS).
“Scribing and charting are essential to high-quality care, but the manual documentation process pulls providers away from the patient and often extends the workday for clinicians,” says Ophir Tanz, founder and chief executive officer of Pearl, in a release. “Pearl Voice captures the clinical encounter as it happens, making the output, whether a doctor’s notes on a patient visit or a hygienist’s measurements in a perio exam, more complete and accurate.”
Features and Workflow Integration
The system’s capabilities include voice-enabled periodontal charting, which allows providers to record measurements with spoken input, eliminating the need for manual transcription by an assistant. It also offers more than 30 customizable templates for various procedures, including exams, fillings, crowns, and extractions.
Pearl Voice is also designed to provide detailed clinical narratives that can support treatment decisions in cases of insurance claim challenges or board audits. The software integrates with supported PMS to write structured notes directly into patient records.
With this product, Pearl is expanding its AI platform beyond radiologic analysis to support other clinical workflows in dental practices.
