High technology in esthetic dentistry.
Unimagined only a few years ago, high-technology tools for the dental practice are now widely available. Ranging from video cameras to computer-enhanced diagnostics that fabricate porcelain restorations on site, these new technologies have many applications in esthetic dentistry. Because they make it easier to communicate to patients what can realistically be achieved, high-technology tools tend to involve the patient more in treatment planning and thus may help prevent disappointing outcomes.
