Ep 75: Tired of Patients Not Understanding Their Treatment? Here’s How AI Can Help

Straight Up With Steph

Send me a message, I’d love to hear from you!

In this episode of Straight Up With Steph, I sit down with Sofie, a dental hygienist who transitioned from clinical care to the world of dental technology and AI. Now working at Overjet, Sofie shares her journey from the operatory to dental sales, what it’s like being the only clinician on her team, and how AI is transforming patient communication, diagnosis, and insurance efficiency in dentistry.

We talk about:

• Sofie’s transition from hygiene to dental tech and sales
• How Overjet helps clinicians present treatment and improve case acceptance
• Common misconceptions about AI in dentistry
• How Overjet supports both providers and insurance communication
• Why clinicians should stay curious about opportunities beyond the operatory

🦷 Whether you’re a dental clinician curious about career transitions or a practice looking to streamline efficiency and accuracy, this episode gives you a real-world look at how AI can elevate your workflow.
