Augmented reality (AR) is the same technology that lets you catch virtual creatures in your living room or try on clothes without physically putting them on. In dentistry, AR can help patients visualize their dental treatments' end results before they even begin. This can be incredibly reassuring, especially for those embarking on a lengthy orthodontic or cosmetic dentistry journey.
Midway through our digital tour, let us pause and acknowledge professionals like Dr Paul Carey, who are pioneering these dental tech frontiers to provide unmatched care for their patients.
Even being miles away from the dental office doesn't mean you can’t receive professional advice. Teledentistry is a growing field allowing patients to consult with dentists via video conferencing. This innovation is particularly impactful in bringing dental care to remote or underserved regions.
