Digitization and 3D printing technology help the dental industry to reduce the cost of dental visits

2022/08/31

There has always been a hot topic on the Internet: if people have problems with their teeth, they can see bankruptcy just by looking at their teeth, not to mention some other oral problems. Indeed, according to the relevant reported data, more than 90% of the young people in China have oral problems of different degrees. Among them, the most expensive treatment of oral problems is dental problems.

Piocreat - digital and 3D printing technology helps the dental industry reduce the cost of dental care

According to statistics, if a young person needs to implant a tooth, the price is between 6000 and 18000. And if the future correction and beautification, the price will be as high as 15000 to 30000. Even the cheapest dental project - tooth washing, the price ranges from hundreds to thousands. Therefore, some people on the Internet joked that the most valuable thing on the body every day is the teeth. Once you are not careful, you will lose the down payment of a house. It can be seen how expensive it is to see teeth in China.

In the end, the reason why it is so expensive to see and treat teeth now is mainly due to artificial and material. The arrangement and shape of teeth are different from each other. Therefore, the treatment of dental diseases or beautification needs to be customized. Therefore, it can be said that dental service is a complete set of customized services. Customization means that no matter what kind of dental products are produced, they can only be used by specific people, and cannot form a general consumption. Therefore, the price is very high.

Secondly, after customizing the complete scheme, the required products must be produced by the dental processing factory or other relevant manufacturers. Take the invisible braces as an example. First, you need to scan all the data inside your mouth through a 3D scanner, and then import these data into the computer software for design adjustment. After the adjustment, the data will be sent to the dental processing factory to start production. First, use a dental 3D printer to print out the patient's dental model, and then make all the dental models needed according to the orthodontic treatment of the dentist. Then, the invisible dental cover is completed.

The above process seems simple, but a lot of related equipment and labor are actually applied. Therefore, the cost of the whole orthodontic treatment is very high. In fact, the digital and 3D printing technology has not been popularized in the dental field, and the price of the invisible braces will be more expensive. After all, more labor is required, and the treatment time will be longer.

So much has been said above. In fact, the medical price of the dental industry has been falling again and again in recent years. The main reason is that the digital application and the popularity of 3D printing equipment have replaced many traditional manual work and improved the overall efficiency. In the near future, with the continuous improvement of digital and 3D printing equipment technology, the cost of dental diagnosis and treatment will be lower and lower in the future.
