Dental Monitoring

Dental Monitoring is a technology that remotely tracks orthodontic treatment progress. It employs a mobile app and hardware to capture and transmit images of a patient's teeth or orthodontic devices. This enables orthodontists to monitor changes without frequent in-person visits.

Benefits of Dental Monitoring:

• Convenience: Dental Monitoring eliminates the need for numerous in-person appointments, saving time and effort for patients.
• Remote Oversight: Orthodontists can remotely assess treatment progress, making adjustments as necessary, and identifying issues early.
• Efficiency: Regular monitoring through Dental Monitoring can lead to optimized treatment plans and potentially shorter overall treatment times.
• Early Issue Detection: Problems can be identified early, preventing potential delays or complications in the treatment process.
• Compliance Improvement: The app often includes reminders and guidance, promoting better adherence to treatment instructions.
• Emergency Reduction: By catching problems before they escalate, the technology minimizes the occurrence of unexpected orthodontic emergencies.
• Communication: Patients can communicate with their orthodontists through the app, enhancing the overall treatment experience.

• Setup: Patients receive necessary hardware and guidance on using it.
• App Use: Patients install the Dental Monitoring app, follow instructions to take images of their teeth, and upload them.
• Image Submission: Captured images are securely sent to the orthodontist's portal for assessment.
• Orthodontist Review: The orthodontist reviews the images to evaluate treatment progress and adjusts the plan if needed.
• Scheduled Captures: Patients continue to take images at specified intervals according to their treatment plan.
• In-Person Visits: Although reduced, some physical appointments are still necessary for comprehensive evaluations.
