Dentero Healthtech
AI-driven software that automates documentation and billing in dental practices to ease administrative burdens and elevate patient care.
Dentero, a Frankfurt‑based HealthTech startup founded in February 2025, develops artificial intelligence‑driven software to automate the documentation and billing workflows in dental practices, enabling clinicians to devote more time to patient care. Using a voice‑powered interface, practitioners can simply dictate the course of treatment; the system then extracts medically relevant content, generates an audit‑proof treatment record, and intelligently maps procedures to the correct billing codes (GOZ, BEMA, GOÄ), including appropriate multipliers and justifications. This seamless integration into existing practice routines aims to reduce both time and error in what has traditionally been a highly administrative, complex process
Shortly after its founding by Patrick Steingraf and Volker Tietz, Dentero closed a pre‑seed funding round in May 2025, securing a six‑figure investment from BMH Beteiligungs‑Managementgesellschaft Hessen and backing from seasoned business angels. Within weeks of launch, the company had attracted a double‑digit number of dental practices as clients, including a major clinic with 15 locations, demonstrating early market traction and appetite for its AI‑based efficiency solution
Dentero operates a B2B SaaS model, offering its proprietary software to dental practitioners along with support services such as in‑house coaching, webinars, and consulting in dental billing and documentation practices.
Its core technological pillars are artificial intelligence and machine learning, powering the recognition of voice dictation, semantic extraction of clinical data, and automatic suggestion of correct billing positions—helping to minimize administrative burden, reduce errors, and increase billable accuracy.
Operating squarely within the HealthTech and Healthcare Practice Management sectors, Dentero addresses a highly fragmented and regulated market that places significant documentation and compliance demands on small and larger practices alike. By streamlining documentation workflows and ensuring audit‑ready billing procedures, Dentero ultimately seeks to improve clinical efficiency and patient care—a contribution aligned with global goals for good health and well‑being.
