GumGuard

GumGuard is a mobile + web AI app that helps pet owners and clinics triage dental issues before they become expensive emergencies. Owners answer a short symptom checklist (drooling, pawing at mouth, bad breath, appetite changes) and upload 3 guided mouth photos using an on-screen framing overlay. The app returns a clear, conservative risk level (routine, soon, urgent) with plain-language next steps and what to watch for. It also generates a shareable “Dental Snapshot” PDF for the vet, including timeline, symptoms, photos, and any meds/chews used. This is not a diagnosis tool; it’s a decision-support and documentation tool. Realistically, the app’s value is reducing indecision and missed appointments, not replacing veterinary dentistry. Monetization: subscription for owners plus a lightweight clinic portal for inbound leads and pre-visit info.
