How is artificial intelligence (AI) changing dentistry?
Utilizing an artificial intelligence tool called Second Opinion, we offer an additional perspective on patients’ requirements and optimal treatment strategies. This program swiftly analyzes X-rays post-capture to confirm issues like cavities, infections, bone loss, and tartar buildup. Additionally, AI aids in generating before-and-after visuals for Invisalign treatments, swiftly scanning teeth and delivering high-quality images within minutes. This streamlined process provides both patients and dental professionals with a precise depiction of the anticipated outcome, facilitating the creation of tailored treatment plans with the utmost efficiency and accuracy.
What other types of new technology are making a difference in dentistry?
Our in-house 3D printing technology enables the creation of various appliances like night guards, dentures, retainers, and more with unparalleled accuracy and significantly quicker turnaround times. This not only saves patients valuable time but also grants us enhanced control over the quality of the appliances we fabricate. By swiftly responding to patient needs, we ensure the delivery of precisely tailored products to address specific issues. Moreover, the integration of digital dentistry has notably minimized radiation exposure for both patients and staff during X-rays, nearly eliminating it altogether. Digital X-rays offer enhanced comfort and safety while delivering exceptional results.
Why would I need a dental implant?
A gap in your smile can lead to speech and chewing difficulties, along with discomfort and self-consciousness. Dental implants are the cutting-edge solution to missing teeth. Whether it’s one tooth or several, implants offer a modern fix. Leveraging our AI and 3D printing prowess, we meticulously plan and simulate surgeries, creating precise placement guides. With over 15 years of expertise, we boast a stellar track record in top-tier implant procedures.
Clear aligners! What do I need to know?
At the core of a captivating smile lies the alignment of your teeth. Invisalign treatment offers a solution through a series of clear, removable aligners, gradually straightening your teeth without the need for brackets and wires, and without the associated restrictions of traditional metal braces. The creators of Invisalign established a recognition system based on dentists’ training and successful patient outcomes. Noble Smile Family and Cosmetic Dentistry proudly holds the prestigious title of Platinum Invisalign Provider, a distinction earned by only a select few in our region. This accolade signifies our commitment to transforming smiles, having aided over 300 patients in achieving radiant smiles and enduring results. Considering this process could be the key to enhancing your smile.
