Vlad Lepenko: Impress & AI-Powered Dentistry

Impress co-founder Vlad Lepenko joins from Barcelona to explain how the company pairs its own clinics across 10 countries with in-house treatment-planning software, crossing $100M revenue with 1,000+ staff. He says accumulated patient data let a computer-vision model cut treatment planning from eight hours to two, and today 30 centralized doctors oversee 100,000+ patients with 80% of scans machine-reviewed, targeting 90-95% by year end. He argues AI makes orthodontics more accessible rather than eliminating jobs, teases a free app feature that detects cavities and inflammation, and mentions Olympic figure skater Alysa Liu among celebrity patients.
