World is developing new technology each day which is decreasing work of human many folds. Same with dentistry, new technologies are making work of people and dentist easy.Some of them are :
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
Artificial intelligence has remarkably increased
its presence and significance in a wide range of sectors, including dentistry.
It can mimic the intelligence of humans to undertake complex predictions and
decision-making in the healthcare sector, particularly in endodontics. The
models of Artificial intelligence such as convolutional neural networks and/or
artificial neural networks, have shown a variety of applications in
endodontics, including studying the anatomy of the root canal system,
forecasting the viability of stem cells of the dental pulp, measuring working
lengths, pinpointing root fractures and periapical lesions and forecasting the
success of retreatment procedures.
Future applications of this technology were
considered in relation to scheduling, patient care, drug-drug interactions,
prognostic diagnosis, and robotic endodontic surgery. In endodontics, in terms
of disease detection, evaluation, and prediction, Artificial Intelligence as
demonstrated accuracy and precision.
Artificial Intelligence can aid in the advancement of endodontic diagnosis and therapy, which can enhance endodontic treatment results. However, before incorporating Artificial intelligence models into routine clinical operations, it is still important to further certify the cost-effectiveness, dependability, and applicability of these models.
AUGMENTED REALITY
Augmented
Reality real time experience .In this student or dentist can pre-plan and can
know the result before treatment.
This is connected to application and through camera of mobile or tablet ,we can overlay virtual depiction
of improved set of teeth or plan treatment before even entering the surgery room.
VIRTUAL REALITY IN DENTISTRY
Unlike Augmented
Reality ,this completely closes off outside world. With dedicated
headset aspiring dental
surgeon and students can be transported to the Operating room their couch while patient can visualize a calming landscape.
Its tough for every student of
class to see surgery i.e technique
sensitive but via Virtual Reality,surgery can be stream globally and allow each
student to be actually in Operating room.
INTRA-ORAL CAMERA
One of the greatest inconveniences while being seated in the dentists’ chair is that sometimes, no matter how wide you open your mouth, the dentist still cannot see what they would like to see, even by using the trusty dental mirror. Such situations are not only uncomfortable for both the patient and the doctor, but also painful. However, the advent of intra-oral cameras can remedy this exact problem.
REGENERATIVE DENTISTRY
We’ve come to expect to have our teeth fall off with age or with damage and have them replaced by prostheses. However, the field of regenerative dentistry challenges this preconceived idea with developments that can lead to self-healing teeth and biological therapy for damaged teeth.
Researchers developed dental fillings that allow teeth to heal themselves. These fillings stimulate stem cells to promote the growth of dentin, or the main constituent of our teeth. This effectively enables patients to regrow teeth damaged through dental disease and potentially eliminate the need for root canals!
ROBOTICS
Robotics is a disruptive technology that will change diagnostics and treatment protocols in dental medicine. Robots can perform repeated workflows for an indefinite length of time while enhancing the overall quality and quantity of patient care. Early robots required a human operator, but robotic systems have advanced significantly over the past decade, and the latest medical robots can perform patient intervention or remote monitoring autonomously. However, little research data on the therapeutic reliability and precision of autonomous robots are available.
Robots are not used as extensively in dentistry as in medicine. Dentistry employs a few manual robotic systems that are managed manually via the control interface of the computer. Manual robots can provide safer and more accurate drilling than traditional dentistry.Progress is being made towards autonomous robots in implant dentistry ,but the few promising robotic systems are not yet available to dentists . High acquisition cost and innate intricacy of the robotic hardware and methods must be overcome before robots will become commonplace in dental practice.
It is amazing how more and more disruptive innovations will be at our disposal – either for improving oral health as a patient or upgrading our practice as a professional. Our task at The Medical Futurist is to follow the latest innovations and keep pace with the growing possibilities in healthcare.
