Vyne Dental and the very expensive missing attachment
A dental practice can finish the treatment and still wait for the money. Vyne Dental has built a business in that awkward interval, where an insurance check, an X-ray and a payment link can matter as much as the appointment itself.
The Check Is Still in the Mail
Anatomy Financial found a stubborn fact inside modern healthcare: the money still arrives in envelopes. Its wager is that the first step toward a trustworthy ledger is a better mailbox.
Toothy AI
Toothy AI builds HIPAA-compliant AI agents that run the insurance side of a dental practice - verifying patient coverage, filing and correcting claims, chasing denials, and posting payments. Using voice AI to make payer phone calls and portal automation to check eligibility, Toothy aims to take the roughly 160 hours a month that clinics spend on insurance busywork off staff plates. A Y Combinator Winter 2025 company founded in 2024 by Johnny Chen and Matthew Kerrigan, it sells a subscription service to dental clinics looking to collect more, faster, with smaller back-office teams.
Wisdom
Wisdom is a New York-based AI-powered dental revenue cycle management platform that helps dental practices collect more from insurers, faster. Founded in 2023 by fintech veteran Stoyan Kenderov and billing expert Ashley Bond, Wisdom pairs proprietary AI with dedicated human billing teams to handle the full claims lifecycle — from insurance verification to denial appeals. The company has raised $28M in funding and reports that over 98% of clients see increased insurance billing revenues after joining.
