What Is Digital Dentistry?
Digital dentistry is a field of dentistry that leverages the efficiency and accuracy of technology to enhance diagnostic and treatment capabilities for improved patient outcomes. Advanced dental imaging devices, software, charting, scheduling, and more all fall under the umbrella of digital dentistry.
Thanks to advancements in digital dentistry, Dr. Awad can design and place dental restorations such as dental crowns, inlays and onlays, dental bridges, and dentures using state-of-the-art imaging and software, much faster. Similarly, digital technology is used extensively in cosmetic dentistry such as Invisalign.
