Technology is changing the way we do everything in life these days. Everyone has a smartphone. We are constantly engaged with our friends and current events through social media. Deal sites keep us informed of the best value buys, we don’t even have to leave our homes to shop or receive packages.
The field of dentistry and orthodontics is no different. In the last decade, technology has made all of dentistry better. We are now able to see what the final result (crown, implant, denture, ortho, etc.) will look like before we begin. Moving from analog dentistry to digital dentistry allows us to have better communication with our patients, agree on treatment plans, and provide painless, faster, better experience.
UPDATE:
Dr. Battle flew to Detroit this weekend to join over 30 orthodontists in discussing the future of orthodontics, digital scanning, and 3D printing. 3D printing is making several industries better, and orthodontics is definitely one of them. We are dedicated to improving our patient experiences, shortening treatment times, making orthodontics more affordable and having better outcomes. The future of orthodontics is amazing and we plan to be at the forefront of this evolution. Thank you TDR Orthodontics for hosting us!
