scanO was founded with a simple belief. Oral healthcare should focus on prevention, not reaction.Dr. Vidhi Bhanushali, a dentist and researcher, saw early in her clinical career that most dental problems in India are detected too late. Limited access to preventive screening meant many patients reached clinics only when treatment had already become complex.

At the same time, Rajat Kabade believed that advances in artificial intelligence and computer vision could make early detection faster, scalable, and accessible beyond traditional dental settings.

Together, they combined clinical expertise and technology to build scanO, an AI powered oral health screening platform designed to help dentists detect problems earlier and expand preventive care to more people.

What began as a research driven idea has grown into a global preventive oral health ecosystem used by clinics across multiple countries..
