Since teeth cannot be regenerated after extraction or grinding, many people look for a good dentist even if he or she is far away. Dentures, in particular, have few users close by and information is scarce, making it difficult to find a good doctor. (Head office: Sapporo, Hokkaido; Representative Director: Akira Ikeda), which offers a free denture data storage service "Denture Bank" nationwide, has developed Japan's first denture application "Denture Bank App" (* researched by the company) that allows you to easily find a good doctor nearby and share your treatment progress with your family. The application was released on August 1, 2024.


Parents and children can share the progress of treatment and photos of trial fittings.


The first denture app in Japan has been developed and released on August 1, 2024.

Japan's first denture app is now available. Not only can you easily find and consult with the best doctors nearby with your smartphone, but you can also share your treatment history and progress with your family. First-time denture makers can eliminate vague concerns by learning in advance about the types of dentures, treatment procedures, what to watch out for in daily life, and how to take care of them. The service also helps to identify the types of dentures that are best suited to the patient's needs, such as pain during use, problems with dislodging, the desire to have dentures made quickly, and the need for spare dentures for sleeping or for other purposes. The app also allows users to save photos of their dentures so that they can compare them with photos taken before they were made for a trial fitting.


The "Denture Bank App" was developed to provide peace of mind to first-time and current denture users as well as their families. It is available to everyone, even those who are currently visiting other dentists, and there is no charge.

The "Denture Bank App" was developed to help people who are using dentures for the first time, and to give them peace of mind, including their families. was the catalyst for the development of the app.

One of the reasons for the development of the application was an inquiry from a person outside of Hokkaido to "Denture Bank," a nationwide free storage service for denture data. The most common question was, "Is there a good doctor nearby? Many people are cautious about choosing a dentist because teeth cannot be regenerated once they are extracted or shaved, and eating can be greatly affected. It is especially difficult to obtain information about dentures through online information, word-of-mouth searches, and asking acquaintances if they know of any good dentists, but there are no users close by. The application has registered dentists who are members of the "Denture Bank". They focus on denture treatment and are highly experienced and skilled, making it easy for those who have trouble choosing a dentist to refer to them and easily consult with them through the application.


It is important to choose appropriate dentures according to your problems.


The other was a casual comment from a family member that made the patient feel depressed. During the production process, the patient tries on the dentures to make sure they look good in photographs, but after the denture is completed, the family member says, "Something is not right," and the patient becomes depressed. One time, a daughter from Tokyo came all the way to Hokkaido to try on a dress and see for herself. The doctor is a man, so he probably doesn't care, but for women, every millimeter of difference counts." I noticed that the family members were more concerned than the patient about the appearance, such as the shape of the front teeth and the amount of teeth visible when smiling.

We also value the feelings of children who worry about their parents.

Representative's voice: "In recent years, more and more families live apart from their elderly parents, but they cannot easily return home due to dual jobs or children's lessons. For this reason, we considered whether there was a way to provide peace of mind not only to the person who is having dentures made for the first time, but also to the family members who live apart from the patient. Many of our patients are elderly, but they also have a high rate of smartphone use, and many have downloaded apps and are proficient in their use. So we developed a reassurance app as a tool to share information with family members, where they can easily find the best doctors in the country, ask them about their concerns, and check the progress and appearance of their treatment." We plan to add new features as needed, such as videos of useful information and care instructions.
