Dental Monitoring: What is it and how can it make your treatment time faster?
At Weaver Orthodontics, we understand the importance of convenience and efficiency in your orthodontic treatment. With Dental Monitoring, patients with Invisalign® and Lightforce braces will experience efficient treatment and at-home monitoring to ensure in-office appointments are proactive rather than reactive. Using digital aligners and digital braces with remote monitoring is truly the trifecta of a modern, digital practice!
What is Dental Monitoring?
Dental Monitoring is an app featuring patented technology used to monitor your orthodontic treatment remotely. First, you download the app, then take pictures of your smile, and then Dr. Weaver uses the app to monitor your progress. You can even see the evolution of your smile within the app (everyone loves the before and after video!)!
Additionally, the app allows you to contact the office easily and directly.
More Productive Office Visits
Dental Monitoring allows for more productive and proactive in-person appointments. Once you submit your scan on the app, Dr. Weaver will analyze the image and determine the next best steps and adjustments for your treatment. With remote monitoring, we are able to see exactly how your teeth are moving, how well you’re brushing, how your bite is correcting with the elastics, and every detail of your orthodontic treatment! This allows us to know exactly when we need to see you in the office and what will be happening at that visit.
Faster Treatment Time
Whether you have Invisalign aligners or Lightforce braces, Dental Monitoring speeds up your treatment time! With the app, there is no need to wait for the next available appointment. We are able to get frequent photo updates from in-app scans, which enable us to adjust your treatment program as needed, ensuring the best possible outcome for your smile.
Access to Support and Expertise
Contact our team through the app whenever you have questions or concerns! We’re readily available to provide support and answer any questions you may have. We will provide you with regular updates and progress reports to ensure you are informed about your treatment process.
Flexibility
Having the ability to track your progress anytime and anywhere allows for flexibility in your treatment. This allows you to easily fit it into your busy schedule without causing consistent inconvenience and disruption.
The Trifecta Effect
Overall, Dental Monitoring offers what we refer to as the Trifecta Effect:
Efficiency: We know you’re busy and seeing the orthodontist is not high on your to-do list! Digital aligners and braces streamline the treatment process and remote monitoring reduces the need for frequent in-person appointments, allowing us to save time for our patients.
Precision: The latest and greatest digital technology used with Dental Monitoring enables precise treatment planning and execution. We are able to make data-driven decisions to lead to the best possible outcome for your smile.
Enhanced Communication: Using a digital tool allows us to facilitate better communication between our orthodontic team and patients. With improved communication, we can foster a more collaborative approach to treatment, making sure you have the latest information every step of the way.
