The dental field is changing dramatically with the advent of new technologies. The wise dentist thinks about and, if necessary, adapts to these technologies but only after a thorough awareness of the legal issues involved.
For example X-rays are now replaced by digital radiography instruments that provide more precise visualization and less radiation exposure. Intraoral cameras can also enable dentists to take clear pictures of hard-to-see areas inside the oral cavity. This allows patients to be more aware of their treatment options and help them to take better care of their oral health at home.
Other advancements include CAD/CAM technology that enable efficient creation of custom-made bridges and crowns, without the need for messy traditional molds. Dental lasers can be utilized for many different purposes like non-invasive cavity detection and precise gum contouring. Biomaterials that are more durable and can be matched to the color and transparency of a patient’s smile provide innovative solutions for periodontal disease and tooth repair.
Teledentistry enables the disabled, elderly and other populations from remote areas to access dentistry. Telehealth platforms allow dentists to capture images as well as make clinical notes and consult with patients using video chat software. 3D printing is also changing dental laboratories and allowing them print custom surgical guides and prosthetics. This speedily reduces turnaround time and allows for more precise, better fitting restorations.
