The Smile Spa - Making the dentist's office a place you should enjoy visiting

Ever wondered what the future of dental care could look like? What if your routine dental appointments could be taken from the comfort of your home in your pajamas without needing to step out of your door? In this episode, I share the fascinating world of virtual dental appointments.

From evaluating TMJ pain to cosmetic options, I discuss the diverse scenarios where this revolutionary approach can prove particularly beneficial. I also touch on the essential aspects of privacy and security and the limitations and give you a glimpse into the AI-integrated future of dental care.
