WHO WE ARE
We are a passionate team working to make oral health care accessible to everyone. Our group includes:
- Healthcare professionals
- Researchers

We believe that oral health is a key to overall well-being. It’s easy to take control of your health whether you are at home or on the go!
WHAT WE DO
At OH-I-CAN, we are pioneering medical-dental integration to revolutionize healthcare. We are breaking down the barriers between medical and dental care by:
- Creating a Unified Health Network: We are building a network that brings together medical and dental professionals – ensuring holistic oral health.
- Bringing Dental Care to Medical Settings: We are incorporating oral health care into primary care. Imagine getting your teeth and mouth examined while visiting your primary care provider!
- Tech for Integrated Health: Our OH-I-CAN smartphone app connects your dental and medical care. By simply answering a few questions and uploading photos or a video of your mouth, we can assess your oral health and refer you to care.
OUR GOAL
We want to make oral health screenings as common as checking your blood pressure at the doctor’s office. By catching oral health issues early, especially for vulnerable groups like seniors, we can:
- Increase oral health access
- Prevent serious health problems
- Decrease healthcare costs
- Improve overall quality of life
Join us in our mission to improve oral health – promoting healthier lives for all!
