Creating a dental industry supported by non-invasive procedures will be important for the general health of the population. Catching dental issues sooner means less pain will be involved in modern dentistry. Diminishing pain associated with dentistry and dental procedures will make dentistry more affordable and more effective.
Lantis Laser with Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) has exclusive rights to the application of OCT technology in the field of dentistry under its license Agreements with Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and LightLab Imaging. OCT creates a noninvasive technique for imaging subsurface tissue structure with micrometer-scale resolution.
The ability to image both the teeth and the gums provides the dentist with technology that is able to detect early stage disease in oral tissue AND capture it sooner that has historically been possible with a minimally invasive procedure. A routine visit is not just a chance for you to get your teeth cleaned but for a dentist to spot potential health issues.
Examples of Dentistry Supporting General Health
A dentist during a routine visit found a growth on UNC football coach Butch Davis’ gum. The growth was removed and diagnosed as non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma.
There is no question but that the earlier you diagnose any abnormality in your mouth, the better your outcome.
Historically, dentistry has been dedicated to prevention. In February, a 12-year-old Maryland boy died when an infected tooth went untreated. Deamonte Driver died of a brain infection brought on by an abscessed tooth, according to The Washington Post.
A simple tooth extraction might have saved Deamonte from undergoing two surgeries and six weeks of hospital care and eventual death, the story suggested. A routine tooth extraction normally costs $80. The seventh-grader’s surgery and hospital care totaled in the six figures.
In Deamonte’s case, his family didn’t have the money and couldn’t find a dentist to take Medicaid.
Losing bone around the teeth could be a sign of diabetes.
John S. Olmsted of Greensboro, president of the American Association of Endodontists, says it only takes six months for decay to go through the enamel, the outer covering of the tooth. Endodontists specialize in root canals. Olmsted says decay can then spread to the dentin, the middle layer of the tooth, and eventually to the nerve, which can cause you to loose your natural teeth.
Dentistry in America
The dental market is large and growing. Dental revenues in the US are approximately $80 billion growing annually at 7-9%. The number of dentists per 1000 population is decreasing as older dentists retire and dental schools are not increasing the number of graduates. Younger dentists are technologically adept, increasing the acceptance of advanced digital modalities. In the US, there are approximately 140,000 dentists practicing in 100,000 dental offices and clinics with an estimated 380,000 treatment rooms.
The demand for dental services is increasing as the population ages and the awareness for good oral hygiene increases. Numerous studies point to the link between oral infections and heart disease, stroke and problems with diabetes, increasing the awareness for better oral care and visits to the dentist.
Lantis, under its exclusive rights from its Licensors, is currently in Phase 2 development and expects this ground-breaking technology to play a major part in the dental office of the future.
