Bottom line

Retrace targets the treatment planning and case presentation side of dental AI, which is a different niche from the diagnostic imaging tools (Overjet, Pearl, VideaHealth) that dominate the dental AI conversation. VideaHealth is a strong contender in dental AI imaging, distinguished primarily by its training dataset scale.
