SCO Group Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo, President and CEO: Yusuke Tamai, hereinafter "the Company") has produced a brand movie connecting the history and future of dental care, which was released today.
This film stars actress Yuno Nagao and depicts the journey of Japanese dental care and the aspirations of those who have supported people's health across four eras: Taisho, Showa, Heisei, and Reiwa.
From a clinic in the Taisho era to a modern dental clinic, we have visualized the universal value of "protecting teeth," passed down for over 100 years, as a single story.
The essence of dental care remains unchanged, then and now.
Dental care has advanced significantly with the times.
From the era of handwritten charts to the evolution of digital. From an era of treating teeth only when they hurt, to the era of preventive dentistry for maintaining health.
While techniques, equipment, and treatment styles have changed, the desire of dental professionals to "protect patients' health" remains the same, then and now.
This brand movie depicts the value and essence of dental care passed down through generations, through the figures of dentists and patients living in each era.
From Taisho to Reiwa. The history of dental care traced through four eras.
In the film, we recreate the scenery and treatment scenes of dental clinics symbolizing each era, set in Taisho, Showa, Heisei, and Reiwa.
Filming was conducted with meticulous attention to detail in the background of each era, from Taisho-era examination rooms and handwritten charts, to Showa-era treatment scenes, the activities of dental healthcare staff in the Heisei period, and the advanced dental care environment of the Reiwa era.
While depicting the changing face of dental care with each era, it expresses the underlying desire to "protect patients' health" that has been continuously passed down.
Starring Yuno Nagao
Actress Yuno Nagao stars in this film.
She appears in the movie as a symbol of "sentiments passed down through generations," depicting a story that connects the history and future of Japanese dental care.
What we want to convey through the film
Dental clinics are not just places to treat teeth.
They are places that support the essential functions for people to live fulfilling lives, such as:
"Eating" "Speaking" "Smiling"
SCO Group has been working to advance the dental industry and promote preventive dentistry.
Through this brand movie, we aim to provide an opportunity for more people to learn about the value and importance of dental care, and the "culture of protecting oral health" that should be passed down to the future.
Vision of paylight X
"paylight X" is an all-in-one platform that integrates reception, treatment, billing, and communication for dental clinics. Functions such as "AI Phone" for 24/7 appointment booking, "AI Message" for automatic reminders and regular check-up notifications, and "AI Sub-chart" for efficient record-keeping, simultaneously improve in-clinic productivity and patient experience.
The underlying sentiment common to all these functions is the desire to "strengthen the bond between dental clinics and patients, and further embed the philosophy of prevention." We aim to make dental clinics a more familiar place for patients. We will remove all barriers to visiting a dental clinic by utilizing technology.
This brand movie release coincides with the first anniversary of the service's launch last year. We will reaffirm the passion behind our service and provide new ways of working and value to dental healthcare sites nationwide.
