The 'SmileMate' system from Dental Monitoring is an advanced oral care solution that harnesses the power of artificial intelligence (AI) in order to keep users in close contact with their orthodontist.
The device is powered a user's smartphone and will provide them with a guided scan of their mouth before uploading the content to the cloud. If the AI-powered system detects any issues or alignment problems, it will notify the orthodontist to let them know the patient needs to come in for an appointment.
The 'SmileMate' system from Dental Monitoring takes only about one minute to perform and could drastically reduce the amount of time that a patient spends in a doctor's office to increase overall efficiency.
