DentalBee, a Toledo-based pioneer in voice-enabled clinical documentation, has been acquired by Overjet, a global leader in dental artificial intelligence.
Why it matters
The deal marks a significant exit for the Northwest Ohio tech ecosystem, validating the region’s ability to build specialized, high-value AI tools that attract attention from global industry leaders.
