Digital Workflow in Orthodontics

The workflow in orthodontics can be defined as a sequence of clinical and laboratory processes through which goals of the orthodontic treatment can be achieved. The digital era has helped orthodontists to work efficiently and save manpower a lot. Every day newer technologies are being discovered and are helping the clinician for better understanding of patient's problems, diagnosis, treatment planning and execution of the plan for more precise results. In today's fast-paced world, it is essential to stay abreast of the ever changing trends in technology since they have the potential to improve diagnosis, facilitate patient treatment procedures and streamline storage, transfer and retrieval. Therefore, going digital is now no longer a choice but a necessity and the future of orthodontics looks more promising if these advanced techniques are used innovatively.
