In this episode of Design Unseen, Julia Kappler sits down with Dr. Tatiana Moreira, dentist, digital workflow specialist, and co-founder of GEM Dental Design, a HealthTech startup exploring how AI is reshaping the future of dentistry.

When you think about a beautiful smile, you picture the result. What you don't see is where that smile is actually made. From digital scans and treatment planning to 3D printing, staining, glazing, and restoration design, an entire hidden ecosystem exists behind every patient outcome. This conversation explores the unseen systems, technologies, and decisions that shape modern dentistry long before a patient ever sees the final result.

Together, Julia and Tatiana unpack the evolution of the digital dental lab, the growing role of artificial intelligence in diagnosis and treatment planning, and why the most meaningful innovations are often the ones patients never notice. While technology continues to automate workflows and increase precision, they discuss why creativity, critical thinking, and human connection remain at the center of healthcare.

At its core, this episode is about designing better systems. Systems that help practitioners work more intentionally, communicate more effectively, and focus more deeply on the people they serve.
