Speaker: Owen Crotty

Principal at Crotty Orthodontics in Cork since 1992 and with over 30 years as a specialist, Dr. Crotty has seen orthodontics evolve from analogue to digital systems. Invisalign certified in 2006 and SureSmile certified in 2011, he is at the leading edge of digitally assisted orthodontics. He is an Invisalign faculty member and international speaker, and has beta tested products for both Invisalign and for SureSmile. He first used Dental Monitoring in 2015 and has experienced its rapid development from an interesting & innovative tool to a leader in what is likely to be the next “big thing” in orthodontics.

Speaker: Philippe Salah

Philippe Salah graduated from the prestigious École Polytechnique in Paris, France, with a PhD in Biophysics. He fell in love with orthodontics after partnering with an orthodontist to build Harmony, a company that made custom lingual treatments with a fully digital workflow. By 2014, Philippe had already realized that Artificial Intelligence was the next frontier in medical care, and so he brought together a team of engineers and orthodontists and created Dental Monitoring, the world’s first AI-based system for treatment monitoring, practice management, and patient communication.

Speaker: Rayan Skafi

Dr. Rayan Skafi received his DMD degree from the University of Saint-Joseph where he also earned a certificate of advanced graduate studies in prosthodontics. He worked in a private dental practice for four years before pursuing a master’s degree in biotechnologies management from ESCP Europe in Paris. After that, he started working at Dental Monitoring, a leading innovator of dental technology, as a Clinical Education Officer. Dr. Skafi works closely with global Key Opinion Leaders in the dental industry to develop and implement a strong educational program teaching dental professionals how to adopt innovative technologies, such as AI-driven solutions and teledentistry, in order to evolve their practices. Dr. Skafi believes that patient empowerment and technological development are making space for the delocalization of healthcare, requiring not only the adoption of disruptive technologies but also changes in stakeholders’ systems and attitudes.
