Frequently Asked Questions
Spotimplant's AI algorithm is based on Deep Learning. From a simple X-ray image of a dental implant, it automatically detects its position in the image and predicts its technical characteristics and dimensions. Based on these elements, it estimates matches with implants present in the Spotimplant database by calculating a probability score. The identification report contains a list of the 10 implants that are most similar to the implant on the X-ray image.
The identification report is sent within 24 hours after the x-ray has been sent. However, in some unclear cases, additional tests are required which may delay the time of receiving the identification report. If you have not received your identification report after a few days, you can contact our customer service.

The periapical radiograph is the reference radiograph with the least distortion and the best image quality. Indeed, some details such as the shape of the thread or the neck are sometimes only visible on this type of radiograph.
Moreover, most of the AI algorithm has been trained on this type of images, making the probability scores more reliable.
Panoramic radiographs are a representation of the mandible (3D object) on a 2D plane image, so the deformations are more important.
In some cases, the algorithm does not give a definite answer. If in doubt, our teams will ask you for additional images and information to give you a reliable answer.
If we are unable to identify the implant, the cost of the identification will be refunded to you within 7 days.

Spotimplant is the first AI-based dental implant identification tool. The deep-learning algorithm automatically analyzes the X-ray image to identify the most likely matching implants. Its use is automated, fast, and reliable contrary to competitors that offer identifications based only on the opinion of experts in implantology.
Compared to competitors, Spotimplant's AI-based technology reduces costs and offers a very attractive price.
Spotimplant has created the most comprehensive implant database on the internet and, unlike competitors, regularly updates the system by adding new information. Spotimplant makes sure to reference all implants but also allows manufacturers to submit additional information to improve the information on the website.
Spotimplant is an independent search engine for dental implants that is exclusively for dental professionals. We do not have the contact information of dentists who work with the systems we reference. If you are a patient and would like to contact a dentist who works with a particular brand, please contact the manufacturer directly.
Spotimplant is a collaborative platform. If you have comments or notice any errors or missing information, please contact us via this link.
