{"id":104948,"title":"Denta - The dental practice that runs itself","tagline":"Autonomous software for a scaling dental group","body":"**TL;DR:** I’m automating the administrative work of a dental practice. I’m now looking to buy my own and run the first autonomous dental practice.\n\n**What is Denta?** Denta is the all-in-one place for a dental practice to run autonomously\n\n* **Context:** Denta ingests data from all of the practice’s fragmented software\n* **Visibility:** Denta provides analytics to help dentists understand their business\n* **Automation:** Denta runs in the background to handle the admin work the dentist doesn’t want to do\n\n**Why Denta?** I’m building Denta because I grew up watching my dad scale his own dental company (from 1 → 10 practices). I want to enable more dentists to do the same.\n\n**What’s Next?**\n\n**The all-in-one Practice Management Software:** Currently Denta integrates with 3rd party softwares to surface data and run autonomously. Now, we’re going deeper into the stack to do everything natively in Denta.\n\n**The autonomous dental practice:** It only fits that if we can automate all the administrative work, we should partner with a dentist to buy Denta’s first practice.\n\nDemo: \u003chttps://youtu.be/NbZh9ZDBKIk\u003e\n\n**Help Denta:**\n\n* If you know anyone in the dental industry, connect them with me ([jack@trydenta.com](mailto:jack@trydenta.com))\n* If you know someone who’d be interested in building this, send them my way","slug":"RIi-denta-the-dental-practice-that-runs-itself","created_at":"2026-07-08T15:34:48.946Z","updated_at":"2026-07-22T13:27:28.128Z","total_vote_count":11,"url":"https://www.ycombinator.com/launches/RIi-denta-the-dental-practice-that-runs-itself","share_image_url":"//bookface-static.ycombinator.com/assets/ycdc/yc-og-image-c440a0ad1dacfb86eeeb343717479cc54d256614449b4ef719977a0a451f8bc8.png","company":{"id":32782,"name":"Denta","slug":"denta","url":"https://trydenta.com","logo":"https://bookface-images.s3.amazonaws.com/small_logos/8126dcec05004e9a335df14d0116cf4774a61b06.png","batch":"Summer 2026","industry":"Healthcare","tags":["Dental","Healthcare IT","AI"],"search_path":"https://bookface.ycombinator.com/company/32782"}}
