It eliminates the discomfort and gagging sometimes associated with dentures, minimizes bad breath, and can be worn during sleep. The inventor developed the new denture in an effort to eliminate his own frustrations with dentures. His product, called the “Smart Teeth” is not yet commercially available.

And 31% of doctors think insurance companies and other payors will be “more willing” to reimburse healthcare providers for these devices.

Other technologies besides dental implants that doctors felt were likely to see significant growth include joint repair/replacement devices (31%), prosthetic limbs (30%), vision correction devices (23%) and back/spline repair & replacement solutions (21%).

Likely to Experience a New Technology Breakthrough Within the Next 24 Months 

It is reasonable to expect that these changes will impact the way Orlando dental implants are conducted within the next couple of years as well.
