PARIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov 20, 2024--

DentalMonitoring, the leader in Artificial Intelligence (AI)-powered remote monitoring for orthodontics, has released a major software update introducing features and indications based on the company’s De Novo approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in May 2024. Used by orthodontists around the world to optimize clinical care, DentalMonitoring’s remote monitoring solution leverages advanced image processing algorithms to analyze intraoral remote scans during orthodontic treatment. Patients take these scans using the DentalMonitoring app on their smartphone with the ScanBox pro phone holder. The AI-powered software supports practitioners with clinical indications to remotely detect, track, and monitor orthodontic treatment progress for enhanced real-time decision-making, supporting personalized treatment and optimizing scheduling. This makes treatment more convenient for patients and increases clinical control for providers.

DentalMonitoring performed an extensive clinical study program on over 2,650 patients across 29 sites in North America, which rendered more than 13,000 clinical results presented to the FDA to validate the safety and effectiveness of DentalMonitoring in monitoring intraoral conditions and treatment progress. A very limited number of studies in the dental field involve so many sites and patients, which shows at the same time the robustness of our performances and the magnitude of innovation brought by DentalMonitoring. FDA-validated indications include archwire and auxiliaries passivity, bracket debonding, open self-ligating clips, tie loss, aligner seats and unseats, retainer seats and unseats, button or attachment loss, black triangles, extraction space closure, midline deviation, anterior space closure, overbite, open bite, overjet, and canine class. Orthodontic professionals, supported by this De Novo approval, could rely even more on the efficiency of DentalMonitoring to track treatment progress between in-office appointments.

Through this FDA Approval, DentalMonitoring is also proud to introduce the innovative SmartSTL feature in the United States following its successful rollout across Europe. SmartSTL allows doctors to request updated STL files via the DentalMonitoring dashboard. This allows orthodontists to access production-ready STL files needed for creating midcourse aligner corrections or retainer creation without scheduling the patient for an intraoral scan as was previously the accepted industry standard.

“We are proud to be the new standard of care in orthodontics. This is a recognition of our 10 years of research and development in Deep Learning Artificial Intelligence. The De Novo FDA approval of this improved version of DentalMonitoring software is a key milestone for DentalMonitoring and makes DentalMonitoring the first and only Software as a Medical Device to monitor remotely orthodontic treatments,” says Philippe Salah, CEO and co-founder of DentalMonitoring.

DentalMonitoring supports orthodontists with useful clinical data and is not to be used as a replacement for orthodontic care. DentalMonitoring is indicated for use for patients over the age of 6 and reports results solely on permanent teeth.

CINCINNATI (AP) — After opening the season as the starting quarterback for the Cleveland Browns facing the Cincinnati Bengals, Joe Flacco will close the season as the backup for the Bengals as they face the Browns on Sunday.

Flacco was dealt to the Bengals in October and made six starts for the Bengals while Joe Burrow was out with a toe injury.

“I don’t really think about putting a label on it,” Flacco said. “It’s crazy. Seasons always go by quick once they’ve started. But the way that this one went, it seems like it flew by.”

During the summer, in Cleveland Browns training camp, Flacco won a competition for the starting quarterback job and made four starts for Cleveland. In Week 1 against the Bengals, Flacco threw for 290 yards.

He said that over the past 17 weeks, he has seen improvement from the Bengals defense. Now, he refers to the Bengals defense as his team’s defense.

“We’re stopping the run,” Flacco said. “We’re getting more pressure on the quarterback. When you combine those two things, it’s going to help you out.”

While Flacco went 1-5 as a starter in Cincinnati, the 40-year-old played well. He threw for at least 200 yards in four of his six starts, and the Bengals offense averaged more than 27 points per game.

Flacco said that he developed a lot of respect for Bengals coach Zac Taylor.

“He has a lot of strengths,” Flacco said. “He’s really good at what he does. His demeanor, his overall personality and the way he leads men is really good. The way he puts game plans together. Also, he’s willing to allow it to be collaborative. That’s a strength. His game day play-calling is also something he does really well.”

Burrow took over as the starter when he returned on Thanksgiving, and Flacco has been the backup over the past month.

Flacco will be a free agent again at the end of the season. As he evaluates his options, he’s hoping to find another chance to play and to start.

“That’s always a priority,” Flacco said. “I’m somebody who wants to play football. You’ve got to assess and see whatever is thrown your way. You have to go from there and see what you can do about it.”

He said that he’d be open to returning to the Bengals, but he’ll weigh several factors.

“I haven’t really thought about it,” Flacco said. “I don’t hope to do anything. I have an idea of maybe of what some goals would be. I’ll go from there and see what happens.”
