Building AI-native dentistry, in public.
This is where all my worlds collide in real projects you can see, watch, and eventually use. Each piece is an experiment in making dentistry more precise, more transparent, and way more human. Built by a clinician working at the intersection of dentistry, AI, imaging, and robotics.

Project 01
DentalDNA
Your smile, your data, your control.
A patient-facing app that turns clinician-approved records and imaging into plain-language explanations patients own and carry between offices. Clinician-reviewed first, read-only first, no autonomous diagnosis — and the full report format is published on this site as a readable sample.

Project 02
Ground Truth
The dataset oral health is missing.
A dataset design and annotation framework documenting the dental edge cases that break current models — built from a decade of clinical intuition, designed for explainability and real-world clinical usefulness. An honest label: not a deployed dataset yet.

What it provesAn understanding of what frontier AI actually needs: clean ground truth, not hype.

Project 03
Molar Town
A dental practice, rebuilt from a blank page.
An AI-native, independent practice in a former bank on Novi Road — standardized imaging, AI-assisted diagnostics, never-rushed care, six identical science-themed suites. The physical testbed for DentalDNA, Ground Truth, and future robotics.

Project 04
Operatory in 3D
From blueprint to navigable model.
An interactive Three.js rendering of a Molar Town operatory, translated from architectural blueprints and AI concept images into a model you can move through — design and engineering, written in code, from floor plan to first-person view.

Robotics workflows
Humanoids that support clinical teams.
Safety-first frameworks for training humanoid robots to assist — never replace — clinical teams, reducing cognitive load with a human in the loop at every step. Honest label: concept and framework stage, not clinical deployment.

Molar Town Universe
Where frontier tech becomes fun.
Original AI music and lyric videos that sneak real dental and AI concepts into catchy hooks, anchored by the anthem “Welcome to Molar Town.” The creative engine that keeps the serious work human — and shipped at volume.

The design system
Two sites, one hand-built system.
molartown.com and dianamcquirter.com, designed and hand-coded end to end — one token system, CSS-only interactivity, and every page versioned like software with its own changelog. You’re looking at it right now.

The patient preference system
Never-rushed care starts before the first visit.
A 22-section intake and preference survey with progressive disclosure — every comfort setting, communication choice, and consent preference captured once, structured, and honored at every visit that follows. Patients answer only what’s relevant to them.

What it provesSystems thinking applied to the softest problem in healthcare: how people want to be treated.

Molar Town Radio
Science with a soundtrack.
The creative studio that keeps the energy going. Original AI music across every genre — Motown, country, punk, EDM — turning dental science, AI, and everyday builder-life into songs people actually enjoy.
