TJ Gilray started his career as every dentist’s favorite guy - the infamous cold-calling salesman😏 He then went on to grow within the dental industry and has focused on dental software for the past 10 years, eventually finding his way to Toothy.AI, an insurance automation software made to make dentists’ lives easier!

TJ is originally from San Diego and eventually settled in Rowlett, Texas where he grew up after his dad retired from the Navy. He is a dog person who has grown to adore his only pet, a cat named Marley. He eventually moved to Utah and quickly started working for dental software company, Social Dental, which rebranded to Banyan. From there, he joined Weave, where he would stay for the next 6 years. That’s where he was really able to learn and get involved with understanding the dental industry on a personal level. That’s where he connected with our very own Dr. Chad Duplantis, and he has finally found a way to work with him and the group again!

He is always looking for the next best thing to offer to practices, especially when he can be sure it’s a true benefit to everyone involved. Toothy.AI reached out to him just last year to open up their sales team and after meeting with the founders and learning what the system can do for insurance RCM, it was a no-brainer for him to join!

Artificial Intelligence is the future of dentistry, and we’re so excited to get the inside scoop straight from the source, Dr. Greg Wu of Mango Voice🎉

Dr. Wu has embraced digital technology, having integrated both Sirona CBCT and CEREC Primescan, and consulted and integrated with companies Pearl AI, Bola AI and Mango Agent to improve the outcomes through technology. In his pursuit of continuous improvement (Kaizen), he transitioned from EagleSoft software to Curve Dental Software, the all-in-one software to prepare for expansion and the future of dental technology.

In 2022, he suffered a stroke that necessitated a reduction in his clinical care responsibilities. Following this, he dedicated his efforts to enhancing workflows, education and integrating new technologies.

Dr. Wu received his DMD from Tufts University School of Dental Medicine. He completed his Advanced Education in General Dentistry Residency at UCLA which included advanced training in implants, veneers, and full mouth reconstructions. He is now the Clinical Director of Onsite dental care, providing mobile dentistry to the assisted living communities across New England, and owns his own practice with two locations in Massachusetts.
