The blog for the dentists of the future

Informed consent is now considered essential in modern dental practice. Far from being a mere administrative formality, it forms the basis of a relationship of trust between the practitioner and their patient. By fully informing the patient of the various treatment options, the risks involved, and the associated costs, the dentist not only complies with the legal framework but also adopts an ethical stance.

The adoption ofAllisone in dental practices reflects practitioners' focus on constantly improving patient experience, awareness and prevention. Thanks to artificial intelligence, our platform brings clarity to patients and simplifies patient understanding. We went to meet Dr Margot, who shared her experience with us.

In dentistry, encountering unfamiliar implants can significantly hinder your ability to provide appropriate care. Every year, many dental surgeons are confronted with implants whose brand and model they cannot identify, due to the disappearance of certain brands, changes in product ranges, or simply a lack of available information.

Unlike other medical specialties where consultations are often triggered by acute symptoms or pain, dentistry is characterized by regular visits—routine checkups—that are not always motivated by noticeable emergencies. This creates a unique challenge: communicating the importance of preventive treatments or care for problems that are not immediately obvious to the patient.

The dental sector, like many other medical fields, is currently undergoing regulatory change in Europe. This change is mainly due to the introduction of Regulations (EU) 2017/745 and 2017/746, which aim to enhance the safety and traceability of medical devices, including dental implants. These regulatory changes, once they come into force, will impose new obligations on you as dental surgeons in terms of documentation, traceability, and communication with patients.

In dentistry, accurate diagnosis and clear treatment plans are obviously essential pillars for ensuring effective and reassuring care for patients. The advent of technology, particularly artificial intelligence such as [Allisone.ai](allisone), is radically transforming the way dentists approach patient care.
