Microbite.xyz Brings 4D AI to Digital Dentistry
💎 Microbite.xyz Brings 4D AI to Dentistry as The Heart Spins Off Revolutionary Medtech Startup
A game-changing development in digital dentistry is underway as The Heart, a Warsaw-based venture builder, announces the successful transfer of Microbite.xyz into a dedicated standalone company. The startup is introducing an AI-powered plug-in for CAD/CAM systems that generates a 4D occlusal load map based on standard 3D scans, tackling one of dentistry’s most persistent issues: bite misalignment and occlusal overload.

Up to 35% of dental patients experience symptoms like tooth wear, enamel fractures, or chronic headaches caused by uneven bite pressure—yet most current digital tools only offer static, surface-level insight. Microbite.xyz disrupts this status quo by offering a dynamic, real-time model of how teeth behave over time, including micro-movements, force distribution, and sequence of contact. This opens new clinical possibilities in orthodontics, prosthetics, and implantology.
“The system transforms static digital mouth scans into living simulations,” says Błażej Szczerbaniewicz, co-founder and seasoned clinician. “For the first time, dentists can see how the bite will evolve over time, not just where pressure exists, but how it changes—and what it means for long-term treatment success.”
According to The Heart’s internal analysis, this breakthrough could eliminate 2–4 corrective visits per patient case and reduce lab revisions and complaints by up to 30%, resulting in significant efficiency gains and patient satisfaction. At an average rate of 200 PLN/hour per clinic chair, the business case is compelling.
Two business models, one transformative mission
The solution will be delivered in two formats:
SaaS model for dental clinics and labs, enabling plug-and-play integration with no extra hardware.
B2B R&D collaborations with manufacturers of aligners and implants, helping optimize design and biomechanics before market entry.
The dental software market in Europe alone is projected to surpass $173 billion by 2030, making Microbite.xyz one of the most promising deeptech entrants in healthcare AI. The system’s dynamic bite simulation offers a precision layer previously unavailable to digital dentistry.
Built by dentists, backed by engineers
The founding team brings an unusual blend of scientific rigor and clinical experience:
Błażej Szczerbaniewicz – clinical dentist with 20+ years of experience in bite disorder treatment
Jan Szczerbaniewicz – digital dentistry specialist with CAD/CAM expertise
Dr. Marcin Knieć – researcher with two decades of work in Digital Image Correlation (DIC)
Supporting them is The Heart’s venture team, which guided the project through IP structuring, venture building, and early commercial validation. “This is the kind of technology the market has been waiting for—solving a real, costly, and unaddressed problem at scale,” said Zbigniew Leś, Director of Scientific Partnerships at The Heart.
AI meets precision health
Microbite.xyz represents a new frontier for AI in medicine—not just as an analytical tool, but as a simulation engine for complex physical systems. In doing so, it puts predictive precision dentistry within reach for practices and labs of all sizes.
