The field of dentistry is experiencing a technological revolution, thanks to Surendera Dental College and Research Institute’s latest innovation in tilt angle measurement. The Department of Prosthodontics has recently registered a copyright for a digital parallelometer designed to determine the parallelism of surfaces with remarkable precision. This breakthrough device employs digital tools to systematically replicate a specific tilt angle measured on a primary cast, replacing the traditional tripoding method that has been used for years.
The traditional tripoding method, while reliable, has its drawbacks. It is often cumbersome, inflexible, and prone to human error due to its manual nature. Points must be selected in the same plane, making it challenging to achieve consistent results, especially during measurement transfer to the master cast. These limitations prompted the team at Surendera Dental College to develop a better solution.
The new digital parallelometer offers a significant advantage by allowing flexibility in selecting measurement points, which don’t have to be in a single plane. This flexibility is crucial for dental professionals seeking greater accuracy and ease of use. Moreover, the digital parallelometer records tilt angles with precision, providing a simplified way to transfer measurements to the master cast with minimal error. Its user-friendly design and streamlined workflow mean that dental professionals can adopt this technology quickly without extensive training.
By reducing the time and effort involved in tilt angle measurement, the digital parallelometer allows prosthodontists to focus on what matters most: delivering high-quality dental care. This innovative approach has the potential to transform the field of prosthodontics, leading to better-fitting dental prostheses and improved patient outcomes.
Surendera Dental College and Research Institute is proud to be at the forefront of this technological advancement in dentistry. This new device is a testament to our commitment to innovation, research, and the continuous improvement of dental practices. As we look to the future, we are excited to explore the impact this digital parallelometer will have on the dental community and the many benefits it will bring to our patients.
