Episode notes
Silos Cause Clinical Inconsistency
- Evolution of diagnostic tools created disconnected silos that rely on the dentist to synthesize data mentally.
- Amreesh argues combining those silos can deliver the 'mind of a thousand dentists' to each patient.
One-Click Unified Wellness Dashboard
- ORAQ unifies patient data into a one-click wellness dashboard covering medical, sleep, biomechanical, caries, perio and aesthetics.
- The dashboard shows risk (green/yellow/red) and guides what to examine and discuss in co-discovery.
Show Risk Visually During Co-Discovery
- Use ORAQ to run a focused risk assessment and then show the patient the visual to guide co-discovery.
- Tailor the conversation to the patient's immediate risks to improve understanding and acceptance.
