Artificial intelligence (AI) has transformed every industry worldwide, including dentistry. While ever more dental professionals attempt to adopt AI in studies and daily routines, most AI researchers come from engineering fields, leading to potential knowledge gaps in these techniques. This article aims to bridge that gap by presenting AI’s fundamental principles and their applications to clinicians.
Evidence-based treatment concepts for the rehabilitation of fully and partially edentulous patients” was the title of the 20th ITI Education Week in Bern in August 2023. Find out more about it on this article.
Peri-implantitis is regarded as a biofilm-mediated inflammatory condition that leads to progressive bone loss. The goal in the surgical therapy of peri-implantitis from the technical perspective is to shift from a negative to a positive or flat bone architecture that assists in the resolution of inflammation. Find out more on Dr. Monje’s latest article.
Introduction In recent years, rapid developments in digital technology have brought about changes in various fields. Advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) and robots have also been introduced into the medical field, and the trend is similarly widespread in the field of dentistry. The intraoral scanner is a handheld
Why digital? As CAD/CAM is being more widely used in dentistry, how does it facilitate clinical practice? Digital workflows consist of data acquisition, computer-aided design, and computer-aided manufacturing. As these digital tools improve, they can mostly calculate errors in each procedure. Every step can be digitized, and the whole process
Choosing your scanbodies There are some common misunderstandings when talking about scanbody choice. Different companies may provide scanbodies for a specific implant system. We can work on original parts, but also on replacements. We need to be aware of the consequences of such choices to consciously decide on which scanbodies
Intraoral scanners are being applied in many dental indications. Starting from restorative dentistry through prosthodontics and of course orthodontics. They are present in chairside systems, the aligner business, patient monitoring apps and treatment planning. Let’s see what benefits they can bring for implant surgery-oriented dental practitioners. Advantages for the digital
