No more dentist visits? AI scans could keep your smile straight
NCT ID NCT05006339
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether using a smartphone app with AI to scan your teeth can keep your smile straight after braces as well as regular in-office visits. 82 people who finished orthodontic treatment will either use the app at home or come to the clinic for checkups. The goal is to see if remote monitoring can catch problems early and reduce the need for travel and appointments.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Dental Monitoring device (AI-supported remote scanning app)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could make orthodontic follow-up more convenient by reducing the need for in-person visits while maintaining treatment results.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage trial with only 82 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The remote system might miss some issues that an in-person exam would catch.
