WAIS Dental Institute

Dental innovation,
rooted in fundamentals.

We build solutions to understand our cases better — and share them with the world.

What WAIS is

Welcome to the future of dentistry.

Workflow Assisted Interdisciplinary Solutions — a community of dentists on a mission to understand our cases better, and deeper. One unified thinking process. Evidence-based systems and workflows, built together. We just happen to build the solutions.

100+
students and counting
8+
faculty
…and a growing community

See the case, not just the teeth.

One way of thinking, built by many.

How the movement works

Solutions for everyone. Synthesis is the craft.

Our solutions answer universal needs — so we share them with the world. What we teach is the synthesis: the thinking that ties them together. And they get better because the people using them speak up. Principles, not personalities.

The vision
The programs

Want in? This is the movement's core.

The free solutions show you the thinking. The study clubs teach it — small groups by design, so every case gets real attention. GPs and specialists, learning side by side. When enrollment opens, the movement hears first.

Grown here.

Continuous growth through research and development — powered by homegrown contributors. Every dental professional is empowered to add to the movement; what we learn together becomes the next thing we teach.

How the movement compounds
Free tool

Your model, analyzed in seconds.

Enter your measurements. WAIS computes instantly — Bolton, arch-length discrepancy, Curve of Spee, and a customized arch form designed specifically for your patient. Each framed as a screening hypothesis, never a verdict. The free tools are our proof of concept: the same thinking the programs teach.

ALD — upper
−1.5 mm
mild / none
ALD — lower
−6.0 mm
moderate crowding
Bolton overall
6.3 mm
mandibular excess — flag
Curve of Spee
~3.0 mm
moderate — to level
◆ A guide, not a verdict.
