Dental Monitoring: Virtual Orthodontic Check-Ins for Faster, Easier Treatment
At Stellar Orthodontics, we understand that your time is valuable. That’s why Dr. Preeti Sidhu offers convenient, time-saving digital tools, including text messaging, online patient forms, iTero® digital scans, and now, virtual orthodontic appointments through the DentalMonitoring™ app.
This AI-powered platform allows Dr. Sidhu to monitor your treatment progress more closely and efficiently than ever before, giving you more flexibility and fewer in-office visits. The best part? There’s no additional cost for this advanced service.
What Is the Dental Monitoring App?
DentalMonitoring is an innovative smartphone app that uses artificial intelligence and high-resolution imaging to let you send photos or videos of your teeth directly to our office throughout your treatment.
Your journey still begins with an in-office consultation with Dr. Sidhu, who will design your custom treatment plan. After that, most of your progress can be tracked remotely, allowing us to monitor your smile from anywhere.
This technology significantly reduces the number of office visits needed while keeping your results on track every step of the way.
How does the Dental Monitoring App Works?
Setup: At the start of treatment, our team helps you download and set up the DentalMonitoring app on your phone.
Scanning: You’ll receive cheek retractors and learn how to take quick, accurate photo or video scans of your teeth.
Weekly Check-Ins: For Invisalign patients, you’ll send scans weekly so Dr. Sidhu can determine whether it’s time to move to your next aligner or continue with the current set.
Smart Communication: If a question or concern arises, you can send a scan instantly, no need to wait for an appointment.
Our system uses AI-assisted analysis to flag any changes in tooth movement, aligner fit, or oral health, helping us make precise adjustments in real time.
