The Digital Age of Dentistry Has Arrived
Gone are the days (or soon will be) when dentists had to ladle quantities of goo into patients' mouths to take impressions for the construction of crowns, bridges and implants. Instead, exciting new high technology has been developed that will do a two-minute digital scan of a patient's entire set of teeth. Once the information is captured by an electronic wand the dentist passes around the teeth, it's delivered to a dental lab where milling machines hooked up to CNC (computer numerical control) devices are used to craft the artificial dentition, most of which is now made from zirconium dioxide. In the past, gold and platinum had been the materials of choice. (Read more about The Digital Age of Dentistry Has Arrived)

Dental Cleaning May Alleviate Heart Disease Risk
In patients with mild to moderate gum disease, a trip to the dentist for tartar removal and overall cleaning has the benefit of actually reducing inflammation of the endothelium (lining) of the arteries, thus lowering the risk for heart disease, a small recent study showed.
“It involved removal of tartar and cleaning the gums, and that’s it – no surgery and no antibiotics – just your basic dental hygiene,” said senior study author Mario Clerici, a professor at the University of Milan, in Italy. He said the researchers are performing an experiment to confirm their results. (Read more about Dental Cleaning May Alleviate Heart Disease Risk)

Dentists Can Identify Those At Risk for Heart Disease

The study followed 200 patients in private dental practices in Sweden whose dentists used a computerized system, "HeartScore," to calculate the risk of a patient dying from a cardiovascular event within a 10-year period.

Saving Badly Diseased Teeth More Trouble Than It's Worth
In recent years, it was common practice for dentists to perform repeat root canals and other procedures in an effort to say teeth compromised by extensive decay, gum disease, and bone loss. Recently, the American Academy of Implant Dentistry has said that this no longer necessary and patients should skip the dental heroics and opt for long lasting dental implants.
