When communication with your dental lab breaks down, a host of problems can arise. Misunderstandings about patient needs can lead to incorrect restorations, delays in treatment, and ultimately, patient dissatisfaction.
Brandon Smith, owner of Brandon Design & Consulting Services, has successfully grown his lab and client list over the years based on a single cornerstone: communication.

Gender equality in dentistry has made significant strides globally and in Europe. The number of women working in dentistry has notably increased, with up to 75 percent in Finland. Various estimates suggest that women in dentistry could make 40% of all professionals in the field in Europe. Given that the first female dentists appeared in some European countries only a hundred years ago, the progress made is truly remarkable. However, in terms of opportunities, income, and career development, there is still a lot of work ahead.

In a recent article published by the Institute of Digital Dentistry (iDD), Dr. Ahmad Al-Hassiny, the founder and director, revealed what he believes to be ‘one of the hidden gems in the industry.’

When it comes to improving dental patient outcomes, satisfaction, and retention, taking a proactive approach to general dentistry plays a central role.

It’s never been a more exciting time to be a general practitioner, as a growing number of dental practices expand the services they offer to their patients. According to American Dental Association (ADA) research, approximately 70% to 90% of general dentists perform at least some endodontic procedures in their practices.

From “patients love the technology,” to “an accurate scan on the first try,” to “it has made our lives so much better,” doctors were highly vocal in their praise of the DEXIS™ IS 3800W in a recent Dental Product Shopper Report.

Women's right to study scientific and medical fields, including dentistry, is now an accepted norm. In Finland today, for instance, women make up 75% of all dentists. However, this wasn't always the case. Women had to fight for their right to work in dentistry, much like they did for voting rights. These women, sometimes called "dental suffragettes," fought tirelessly to be recognized in this esteemed profession.
However, the involvement of women in dentistry dates back to ancient times.

As more doctors embrace 3D imaging to support their digital workflow and deliver state-of-the-art patient care, cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) is quickly becoming a mainstay in many practices — and for good reason. CBCT technology equips practices with the ability to capture and view exceptionally detailed 3D renderings that support improved diagnostic accuracy and confidence, more predictable treatment planning, and better patient outcomes.

Intraoral scanners have completely transformed modern dental practices in recent years. But while a practice might find the decision to purchase an intraoral scanner to be a straightforward one, the decision around which intraoral scanner to choose can feel considerably more complicated.

Are dental hygienists’ appointment windows shrinking? In a way, yes.
When you consider the multiple ad hoc requests that can arise combined with the growing trend toward accelerated and assisted hygiene, that appointment window can start to feel smaller and smaller.

Choosing the right intraoral scanner for your dental practice can be a daunting task, especially when it comes to deciding between wireless and wired models. While wired intraoral scanners have been the industry standard for decades, wireless technology has improved considerably in recent years.
