DIGITAL DENTISTRY
Description:... New science and technologies have already made their way into all aspects of dental practice and have changed traditional approaches to diagnostics, risk assessment, prevention, and many procedures in clinical dentistry. Maintaining a successful dental office takes a lot of hard work. There are many responsibilities associated with keeping the practice running smoothly, from the front-office tasks to clinical work. Dental practice management software allows us to handle all of these tasks with one application.
Computers have been used in dentistry since the 1960s. Since then, computers and information technology have spread progressively in the dental practice.
Being a recent addition to the array of treatment options available to the dentist, computer-based technology is still a focus of study, research and development. The three areas of application of dental software are diagnosis, treatment and communication. The use of software technology not only reduces treatment time, but also yields good results that are reproducible and internationally recognized.
As Computers and software are the integral part of dentistry, they help in maintenance of patient record, insurance, patient education, investigation, treatment outcome, simulations, fabrication of prosthesis, etc. This book is intended to give a deeper insight of various software used in dentistry and enable dental professionals to deliver treatment with the help of computer-aided tools. This book also aims to provide in depth knowledge about digital dentistry and its use in routine dental practice making dental care more precise and effective
