| Company | Occlusa (also styled Occlusa Health) builds clinical reasoning into dental CAD: a browser-native ecosystem of dental software modules for assessment, imaging, jaw motion, design and manufacturing. |
|---|---|
| Website | occlusa.health · live app: app.occlusa.health |
| Founder | Dr. Haitham Sharshar — Founder and Clinical Director of Occlusa; perio-implantologist in Cairo; international digital dentistry speaker and digital occlusion consultant; Founder and Scientific Coordinator of Digital Dentistry Schoology (DDS), which has trained more than 3,270 dentists and dental technicians; certified trainer for zebris JMA-Optic+ jaw-motion analysis and MyoWise dental EMG; owner of HS Dental Clinic, Cairo. Contact: h.sharshar@ddschoology.com. |
| Based in | Cairo, Egypt. Initial markets: Egypt, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Kuwait. |
| Live product | Occlusa TMD Analyzer, live in the browser at app.occlusa.health. It brings six evidence pillars (3D jaw tracking from zebris/Modjaw XML, surface EMG, DC/TMD Axis I & II, patient history, CBCT + MRI context and a screening synthesis) into one review and exports a clinical PDF. |
| Working tools | Jaw-Motion Engine (plays recorded jaw-motion XML back on intraoral scans in the browser) and Nesting (3D-print build plates). |
| Wave 1 (about to release) | Prep Analyzer, Crown Design, Legato 360 (customized patient articulator), Segmentor (CBCT DICOM to STL) and Full-Mouth Rehab. |
| Wave 2 (roadmap) | Aligners, Indirect Bonding, Bridge, Implant Prosthetics and Surgical Guide. |
| Platform | Runs in a modern web browser; no install and no dongle. Every module reuses one core: case record, clinical rules engine, motion engine, 3D viewer and export. |
| Regulatory position | Clinician decision support. Modules organize evidence and propose designs; a clinician reviews and signs off. No FDA, CE, EDA or SFDA authorization is claimed. Validation plan: engineering verification, independent review, workflow pilots, and a regulatory pathway with quality management aligned to ISO 13485. |
| Slogan | Motion. Measure. Master. |
All modules
- TMD Analyzer — Live. Brings TMD evidence into one review: history, DC/TMD exam, jaw tracking, EMG and imaging context, with a PDF report.
- Prep Analyzer — Wave 1 · about to release. Checks a preparation before the patient leaves: path of insertion per die, undercut and clearance heat maps, repeatable grading for schools.
- Segmentor — Wave 1 · about to release. Turns CBCT DICOM into STL so imaging can sit in the same case as the scans.
- Jaw-Motion Engine — Working tool. Imports intraoral scans with recorded jaw-motion XML and plays the movement back in the browser.
- Legato 360 — Wave 1 · about to release. Customized patient articulator: articulation set from the patient's own records.
- Crown Design — Wave 1 · about to release. Builds the crown proposal from the analyzed prep, with clinical intent attached and contacts checked in motion.
- Full-Mouth Rehab — Wave 1 · about to release. Connects facial analysis (midline, facial thirds, smile arc), smile design, wax-up and clinical analysis through a branching rules engine.
- Bridge — Wave 2 · roadmap. Multi-unit restorations on a common insertion path across abutments.
- Implant Prosthetics — Wave 2 · roadmap. Implant-supported restorations with qualified interface libraries.
- Aligners — Wave 2 · roadmap. Aligner planning informed by face, roots and function.
- Indirect Bonding — Wave 2 · roadmap. Bracket placement trays generated from the planned setup.
- Surgical Guide — Wave 2 · roadmap. Guided implant surgery from CBCT and scans, validated across the full chain.
- Nesting — Working tool. Arranges parts for 3D printing with supports and spacing, ready for the lab.
