The Advantages And Disadvantages Of Suresmile Technology

Today, it is possible for orthodontist to take a highly accurate, digital 3D image of the inside of a patient’s mouth. Gone are the days of goop and gagging that are associated with conventional impressions. The iTero Scanner creates almost flawless images of the patient’s teeth and gum tissues the first time so aligners, retainers, appliances and restorations can be more accurate and fit better.

Orthodontists has many tasks to complete throughout each day. Although an orthodontist's primary job is to align teeth, and make sure the facial structure of the patient is growing properly, they must also give instructions to dental officers and technical assistants each day. Aside from giving instructions, and the orthodontist must take many steps in caring for their patients. By doing so, the first step in caring for their patient is to analyze their patient’s records. By analyzing the records, they check their medical or dental history, previously made plaster models of teeth, photos of patients face and teeth, and they x-ray the patient. This helps to creates the patient’s plan in order to properly align their teeth, and it gives an estimated cost for their treatment. (Degree Directory, “What Are the Duties of an

During the years of 1855 through 1930, Edward Hartley, the mind behind orthodontics we know today, was documented by those around him. Picking up all of his achievements, faults, techniques, anything there was needed to know about him. A farm boy with an idea that would change lives and the way things were. Angle devoted his life designing, defining and refining orthodontic techniques that are still used to the present day. Would you want your teeth to be realigned in the 1850’s? Who would go for a mouth full of metal and in some cases a metal head piece? Ask the same question for today 's society; everyone. The study of orthodontics has changed the lives of many people today and is a highly preferred privilege we have today.

As per the methodology of Kohn et al., (2004), treatment gap (G) calculations take into account the service utilization rate (Sc), the prevalence rate (Rc), and the population size (Pc).

The first step in the analysis was to categorize each patient by whether or not they passed the clinical threshold during their treatment and if their change was reliable. Clinical cutoff scores and Reliable Change Indexes (RCI) for the PHQ-9 and GAD-7 were obtained from past research [@Delgadillo2012; @Griffiths2015; @Kroenke2001; @Spitzer2006]. Clinical cutoff scores for the BASE-6 were obtained from unpublished pilot research and corresponded to the clinical cutoff of the commonly used OQ-45 measure.

Patients find they can reduce the amount of time needed for active orthodontic treatment with the help of Ortho-Tain and save money in the process, MegaBiteDental.com explains

This study was designed as a descriptive case series as it follows the progress of ten participants undergoing the same treatment with no control group. As this is a

Validity: Overall the study is valid but limited as the study examined individual patients as a single case making the ability to generalize limited. The foremost dilemma with the study is the challenge in determining the difference in scores that correspond directly to a clinically important modification. The ability of the VAS to detect significant changes relies heavily on an established baseline as a standard to compare future data. Throughout the duration of the study, patients were asked frequently to complete the VAS and RMQ, this may possibly lead to learning effects which may impact the results of the pain and functional status

Throughout the years, we have updates our systems and methods several times. We have gone from being a lab that produces 100% full-contour and layered metal crowns to a lab that produces 95% full-contour and layered porcelain crowns (Zirconia and e-Max). We are proud to acknowledge are awareness of the changes in our industry and known when to go with the changes and when not to. When the possibility of digital dentistry came around we didn’t hesitate and made the leap to become a digital lab. With this leap of faith, we were able to provide our dentists with new materials and more options and this has been one of the key reasons we have been able to keep close relationships with our current doctors for about 27 years.

Through the use of plaster impressions and x-rays, the orthodontist determines which retainer works best for the patient.

Vareldzis practiced dentistry in the Portland area. Yet his love for learning kept him in school, studying postdoctoral work in modern, advanced dentistry. This includes taking courses at the OBI Foundation for Bioesthetic Dentistry and the Dawson Academy. Because of this, Dr. Vareldzis is able to offer state-of-the-art techniques such as laser dentistry, CEREC same-day crowns, dental implants, and Invisalign aligners.

Today in the clinic I worked on my patient Evelyn Serrano. I started her a month ago, but could not see her again until now because she is a stay home mom and is hard for her to find who babysit her kids. For today, her boyfriend did not go to work to stay home with the kid. Also, she lives in Danbury and do not drive, so she come to her appointment with me. The dental office where she had her last dental radiographs taken two years ago, was not able to send us her radiographs, and we decided on taking vertical bite wings (VBW) because she while doing her periochart she had some pockets depth between 6-8 mm. However, taking the VBW resulted very challenging experience because my patient Evelyn had difficulty biting down on the sensor. Her teeth never reached the bite block and she was trying holding it in place with her lips. In addition, she had a bad gagging reflex. At the end, I was able to take 4 horizontal bite wings and 4 periapical for the Mx/Mn anterior. The radiographs allowed me to corroborate my probing findings on her extensive bone loss. My patient had active sings of periodontal disease since she had generalized bleeding with minimum manipulation of the gingivae tissue and some of the pocket depths readings were higher today than on her last visit (which is an indicator the gingivae tissue is more inflamed than the last visit). Her diagnosed was a generalized chronic moderate periodontitis with localized chronic advanced periodontitis; and due to the presence of generalized calculus and inflammation, we decided that she will benefit if we first did a power instrumentation cleaning in her teeth to help reduce the inflammation. With the cleaning and the OHI
