OFFICE VISIT
sometimes it's hard to be patient
and sometimes these cases are
not successful.
You recently had both of your
offices remodeled. How did you
go about it? What would you do
differently next time?
In general, it went very smoothly. We
sourced a local contractor and designer
with whom we had worked previously.
It was convenient to have two locations
that aren't too far apart-in each
remodel, we simply shifted our patients
to the opposite office. Both projects
were completed in around 14 weeks.
If I had to do it over again, I might
consider building out a new space for
our smaller office instead of remodeling.
While efficient, we do have some
space bottlenecks. But now, after
remodeling both offices, I'm not sure
I would have the energy to build out a
new space at this point!
The pandemic brought about
some changes that have stuck
around. How do you think patient
monitoring can or will improve?
I'm not sure remote monitoring necessarily
will improve COVID-19 challenges
themselves, but I suppose for
the cases I am remotely monitoring,
if there were a health-related reason
a patient couldn't visit the office, we
would have in place a great mechanism
to monitor treatment.
Remote monitoring does not prevent
all visits to the office, however!
Until an accurate scan of teeth can be
taken with a smartphone, patients still
have to come in for scans. And they
still have to come in for interproximal
reduction, attachment failures and
progress radiographs.
TOP PRODUCTS
ITERO DIGITAL SCANNER.
Being able to quickly take a digital impression to be used for Invisalign,
study models or multiple different appliance fabrication options, including
metal appliances, is a game-changer.
TOPS ORTHO PRACTICE
MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE.
This software has been rock-solid
for our two-office practice. Data is
hosted offsite. All patient information
is accessible anywhere we are. Active
development of new and timely
features combined with a receptive,
available support team is fantastic.
I-CAT 3D IMAGING SYSTEM.
I am a better orthodontist because
I can visualize, treatment-plan and
design in 3D. Overlaying roots with
iTero to get accurate root positioning
from the start of treatment is
remarkable.
