"We are delighted with the acquisition of Loum, which allows us to integrate complementary skills into our teams and meet the expectations of patients and their doctors worldwide. We are coordinating a robust solution and collaborating with a team of skilled colleagues who will enhance our AI-powered platform with new strategies and an innovative approach. Ultimately, we want to design a more playful version of our patient application, and through Loum’s gamification approach, which allows for careful monitoring of treatment, this is an angle that we are now addressing," says Philippe Salah, CEO of the Dental Monitoring.

"Placing gaming at the heart of the healthcare protocol not only brings a little lightness to the patient’s journey, but also makes any follow-up care much more appealing, accessible, and more likely to be followed,” explains Michaël Sutter, CEO of Loum.

"Joining Dental Monitoring is great news for us and our customers. We now offer them the possibility of benefitting from a broader range of cutting-edge solutions for the management of their patients’ care, while continuing to provide them with personalized and local support. This integration is also an accelerator in terms of innovation and is therefore in line with a product offering that remains at the forefront of market expectations. We are delighted to bring our vision of the patient journey and to partner with those who share our taste for service and excellence," announced Michaël Sutter, CEO, and Clément Coicault, COO of Loum.
