Fremont, CA: The dentistry sector has changed significantly in recent years. New technologies have enabled dentists to deliver greater patient care while improving dental care. Here are some of the most important technologies that will affect the future of dentistry.
3D Printing
New technologies are constantly being invented, making staying up with the latest trends difficult. However, a few innovations are expected to substantially impact the dentistry sector in the next years. One such technology is 3D Printing. This technique can potentially transform how dentists make prostheses and other dental appliances. Dentists will be able to create bespoke appliances that meet the distinct demands of each patient using 3D Printing. This will result in better-fitting, more comfortable appliances and reduced waste and production costs. One such example is the creation of dental splints. Dental splints are mouth guards for the patient's jaw and mouth muscle mobility. Manufacturers can use 3D Printing to capture real-time patient jaw movement and use that information to make a soft dental splint. These splints, created via 3D Printing, fit perfectly into a patient's mouth and provide a layer of protection for the teeth.
