Advances in technology have helped improve orthodontic treatment. From 3D printing to alternate treatment such as Invisalign, there are an increased amount of ways we can serve you. But going digital is more than just clear aligners. Below, we outline three ways in which our going digital can be an asset to you before, during, and after your treatment.
Communication through Texting
Your life is busy, and sometimes it’s easier to shoot off a text instead of calling. We get that! That’s why Parks Orthodontics offers a texting option aside from being able to call in. Feel free to shoot us a message at (757) 874-6655 and we will get back to you quickly!
Virtual Smile Assessments
Video calls are becoming more and more popular among people of all ages. The ability to see the face of who you’re talking with is one of the many joys of today’s technology. While it may have been initially created to make it easier to see and communicate with friends and loved ones, the orthodontic community has utilized it for another purpose that will help save you time and travel.
At Parks Orthodontics, we are proud to offer virtual smile assessments, allowing you to get an assessment without having to leave your home. It’s fast, easy, and is a great alternative to coming into the office. After all, you’re a busy person, so you should be able to do things your way when possible. With our virtual smile assessments, we are happy to help you save time and effort in this matter.
Digital Communication through Virtual Smile Check-ins
If you’re a former patient and have finished orthodontic treatment, we can take care of your smile check-ins over video calls. Similar to virtual smile assessments, virtual smile check-ins allow us to take a look at your teeth to make sure everything is staying aligned inside your mouth. Because this is a fairly quick check-up, there’s no need to come into the office if you’d prefer not to. But, don’t forget to schedule these virtual appointments because they are important to your oral health!
Let’s Get Digital!
Now that you know the benefits of going digital, let’s work together at it! Feel free to text (or call) us at (757) 874-6655 to schedule your virtual or in-office appointments. We look forward to seeing you, whether it’s on the screen or face to face!
