Most of our patients present with orofacial dysfunctions tied to their malocclusion — yet until now, we've had no scalable way to screen and treat them. Breathing pattern, lingual posture, swallowing, and oral habits are recognized etiological and aggravating factors in malocclusion — and left unaddressed, they can complicate treatment, delay it, and above all drive relapse.Functional screening, however, is time-consuming, and access to myofunctional therapy is too often limited, distant, or unaffordable for the patient — leaving many with no functional pathway at all. So while the majority of our patients present with these dysfunctions, we have until now had no tool to screen them at scale, reproducibly, and to offer them an accessible functional pathway alongside treatment.This session introduces DM Functional, powered by The Tongue Teacher — a solution that answers this need in just a few clicks. You invite your patient to complete an at-home self-assessment; the algorithm analyzes their responses and generates personalized rehabilitation program recommendations, opening a complete myofunctional therapy pathway the patient follows independently at home. The platform is simple to adopt and easily delegated to your clinical team, and it monitors each patient automatically, with continuous data feedback through a measured compliance score.For the practice, this means three things:Confidence in managing the functional dimension of careThe right communication tools, backed by the objective data of that compliance scoreA new revenue stream, through a simple, affordable functional upsell offered alongside orthodontic treatmentIn 30 minutes, we'll walk through the full workflow, how it fits into your practice with no added chairtime, and exactly how to position it financially to grow your practice.
Explore how leveraging DentalMonitoring and digital workflows can transform the footprint of an orthodontic practice. Through a real-world case study, learn how redefining team roles, optimizing processes, and adopting technology expanded capacity, improved patient experience, and drove growth. Gain a practical roadmap for scaling efficiently without increasing overhead.
