ALL CONEC Taps Oracle Cloud to Reshape Digital Dentistry

SEOUL, South Korea – December 04, 2025 – In a move that signals a deepening integration of advanced technology into healthcare, South Korean startup ALL CONEC has been selected for the prestigious Dream Venture Star (DVS) 11 "Oracle × Uclick Program Business Meetup." While the official press release on December 5th was brief, the implications of this partnership are significant, positioning the dental tech firm to accelerate its ambitious plans to revolutionize the prosthetic production market with artificial intelligence and cloud computing.

The selection, formalized with a prize and a memorandum of understanding (MOU) on November 14, provides more than just a credential. It offers ALL CONEC a strategic launchpad, granting it access to the technical prowess and market reach of technology titan Oracle. For investors and industry observers, this development transforms ALL CONEC from a promising niche player into a company with the backing to potentially overcome significant market barriers and scale its innovative platform.

The Digital Revolution in the Dental Office

The dental industry is in the midst of a profound, albeit uneven, technological transformation. For decades, the process of creating dental prosthetics like crowns, bridges, and dentures was a craft reliant on physical impressions, manual modeling, and multiple patient visits. This traditional workflow is gradually being displaced by a digital alternative that promises greater speed, precision, and patient comfort.

This digital workflow begins with an intraoral scanner, a wand-like device that captures a precise 3D map of a patient's mouth, eliminating the need for uncomfortable impression putty. This data is then sent to a dental lab, where computer-aided design (CAD) software is used to design the restoration. Finally, a computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) machine, either a milling unit or a 3D printer, fabricates the final product.

The benefits are compelling. Labs report production times for implants and dentures cut by 50% to 70%, respectively. Digital designs can be archived indefinitely, allowing for quick and exact reproduction if a restoration is lost or damaged. However, adoption has been hampered by significant hurdles. The initial investment for a full digital setup, including scanners and CAD/CAM systems, can easily exceed $100,000. Furthermore, the steep learning curve and resistance to changing established workflows present formidable barriers for many dental practices.

ALL CONEC's AI-Powered, Cloud-Native Approach

This is the complex landscape ALL CONEC aims to conquer. The company's value proposition is not just a single piece of software or hardware, but a fully integrated, end-to-end digital platform. Its suite of solutions includes proprietary AI-powered CAD software, an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system for managing lab operations, a 3D viewer for collaboration, and its own line of IoT-enabled 3D printers. The goal is to create a seamless ecosystem connecting dental clinics and labs.

The centerpiece of this strategy, and the focus of the new Oracle partnership, is its "AI CAD–OCI integration structure." OCI, or Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, provides the computational backbone for ALL CONEC’s artificial intelligence. By leveraging a powerful cloud platform, the company's AI can perform complex tasks far beyond the capabilities of a standard desktop computer. AI algorithms can analyze scan data to automatically suggest optimal crown margins, design a perfectly fitting restoration, and adjust for the patient's specific bite occlusion, drastically reducing the manual labor required by dental technicians.

This cloud integration offers three critical advantages. First is scalability: as the company grows, OCI can handle immense volumes of data from thousands of scans without a drop in performance. Second is enhanced processing power, which allows for more sophisticated and accurate AI models. Third, and perhaps most importantly, is connectivity. A cloud-native platform breaks down the data silos between the dentist’s office and the technician’s lab, enabling real-time collaboration on patient cases and ensuring everyone is working from the same, most up-to-date information.

Overcoming Hurdles with Strategic Alliances

While ALL CONEC’s technology is promising, it faces a competitive and fragmented market. Giants like Dentsply Sirona, 3Shape, and Align Technology command significant market share, and a host of other innovators, such as MEDIT and Imagoworks, are also vying for dominance in the digital dental space. For a startup, breaking through requires more than just a good product; it requires trust, market access, and a clear return on investment for its customers.

This is where the selection for the Dream Venture Star program becomes a pivotal strategic asset. Accelerator programs serve as powerful validation mechanisms, signaling to the market that a company has survived a rigorous vetting process. Participation is statistically linked to a higher probability of securing follow-on funding and achieving higher valuations.

The partnership with Oracle, in particular, is a game-changer. It provides ALL CONEC with the credibility of a global technology leader, potentially easing concerns among dental professionals about the reliability and security of a cloud-based platform handling sensitive patient data. Oracle's expertise can help streamline the complex technical challenges of integration and ensure the platform is robust and secure. This endorsement can help ALL CONEC overcome the inherent resistance to change by positioning its solution not as a risky bet on a new startup, but as a future-proof platform backed by an established enterprise powerhouse.

By leveraging the resources and mentorship from the DVS 11 program, ALL CONEC can refine its go-to-market strategy, build stronger case studies demonstrating clear ROI for dental practices, and develop training programs that lower the adoption barrier. The program provides the support structure needed to transition from a technology-focused startup to a market-ready commercial enterprise, equipped to navigate the complexities of the healthcare industry and challenge incumbent players. The move represents a calculated effort to use strategic alliances to accelerate past the typical growing pains that slow down many promising technology firms.
