Although it may push many out of their comfort zone, there’s no denying technology’s ability to make tasks easier, save time, and use fewer resources. Advanced technology can impact everything from the latest iPhone model and car to marketing, manufacturing, and even dentistry. Since the pandemic, one of the biggest challenges in the dental industry has been aerosol management, which calls for increased innovation and creativity.
