already know from experience: restoring oral function transforms lives, and it’s worth

investing in, both privately and systemically.

periodontitis, and delayed dental care

visits, better nutrition, mental health uplift)

Support commercial and strategy teams with pricing analysis, market access, and

value-based selling materials

Develop health impact reports for use in investor decks, whitepapers, and

NHS/private partnerships

Translate complex modelling into clear, actionable outputs for decision-makers and

clinical partners
