Application of digital technology in stomatology

The application of digital technology in oral field mainly includes three aspects: digital oral scanning technology, digital oral imaging technology and digital oral design technology.

1. Digital oral scanning technology: Digital oral scanning technology converts the morphological and structural information of patients' oral cavity into digital signals through scanning equipment, realizes three-dimensional modeling and digital reproduction of patients' oral cavity, and provides accurate data support for subsequent treatment. Digital oral scanning technology can generate three-dimensional models with high accuracy and good repeatability, and provide accurate data support for oral examination and treatment. Digital oral scanning technology is widely used in dental restoration, orthodontics, implant and other fields.

2. Digital oral imaging technology: Digital oral imaging technology mainly includes digital X-ray film and oral CT (Computed Tomography) technology. Digital X-rays can quickly and accurately obtain X-rays in patients' oral cavity, and provide basis for the detection, diagnosis and treatment plan design of lesions. Oral CT technology can obtain three-dimensional images of patients' oral cavity and its surrounding tissues with higher accuracy and resolution, which is helpful to guide oral implant, surgical treatment and orthodontic planning.

3. Digital dental design technology: Digital dental design technology can simulate the three-dimensional design of patients' oral cavity through computer-aided design software, and then formulate and implement treatment plans such as tooth restoration, orthodontics and implantation according to the design results. Digital dental design technology can improve the accuracy, efficiency and quality of treatment and greatly improve the treatment level of stomatology.

The Positive Role of Digital Technology in Oral Application

The application of digital technology in stomatology has become a trend, which not only improves the accuracy and efficiency of stomatology treatment, but also improves the treatment experience and satisfaction of patients. With the continuous development and maturity of digital technology, it is believed that it will be widely used and popularized in the field of stomatology in the future.
