Technology integration: a journey, not a destination
Abstract:
This article discusses the integration of the latest technologies into the dental practice. Given the rapid rate of obsolescence in computer hardware, clinicians need to look to practice-management software to build the foundation for incorporating all future applications into a smoothly running operation. Combined, the core components of the clinical dental record, digital radiography, intraoral and digital cameras, and cosmetic imaging create an integrated dental image-management system that is becoming a critical factor in how we communicate with our patients and with each other.
