Dental Technologies and Innovations

There are always new innovations and technologies popping up, promising to revolutionize dentistry. To stay on top of the latest trends, it is essential to be aware of the latest developments, be aware of how they can be applied to your practice, and be prepared to adapt and grow with them.

Many of these advancements improve the overall experience as well as the outcomes of dental treatment. Digital X-rays for instance reduce radiation exposure to patients by replacing traditional film with sensors that can show results instantly on a monitor. This technology makes the diagnosis process much faster and more efficient and enables dentists to treat dental issues faster.

Other advances in dental technology reduce the time and effort needed to complete a treatment. For instance, intraoral scanners remove the need for messy dental impressions by scanning teeth to create a digital map which can be used to construct custom-fit dental restorations. This technology reduces time and discomfort for patients while ensuring that dental crowns, bridges, and veneers fit properly.

Dental technology has enhanced the efficiency of treatment which allows patients to select from a variety of options when it comes to preventing or treating dental cavities. For instance, instead amalgam fillings with silver that contain mercury dental composites, tooth-colored ceramic resin fillings offer a more secure and more attractive option.

Another key benefit of dental technology is their environmental sensitivity. Dental technologies such as digital X-rays and an intraoral camera use less harmful chemicals and materials than their predecessors. This helps reduce the impact on our planet.
