Thesis Abstract

Abstract
The advent of teleorthodontics has revolutionized the field of orthodontics by offering a remote monitoring solution for orthodontic treatment progress. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of teleorthodontics in monitoring orthodontic treatment progress and its impact on treatment outcomes. The research methodology involved a comprehensive literature review, data collection from orthodontic patients using teleorthodontic platforms, and analysis of treatment progress based on various parameters. The findings revealed that teleorthodontics is a promising tool for monitoring orthodontic treatment progress, offering convenience and accessibility for both patients and orthodontists. However, certain limitations and challenges were identified, such as the need for reliable internet connectivity and potential discrepancies in assessing treatment progress remotely. The discussion of findings highlighted the benefits and drawbacks of teleorthodontics in monitoring orthodontic treatment progress, emphasizing the importance of proper patient education and communication in utilizing this technology effectively. In conclusion, teleorthodontics shows great potential in improving the monitoring of orthodontic treatment progress, but further research and advancement in technology are needed to enhance its accuracy and reliability. This study contributes valuable insights to the field of orthodontics and sets a foundation for future research in teleorthodontics and remote monitoring of orthodontic treatment progress.

Thesis Overview

The project titled "Effectiveness of Teleorthodontics in Monitoring Orthodontic Treatment Progress" aims to explore the potential benefits and challenges associated with incorporating teleorthodontics into the monitoring of orthodontic treatment progress. Teleorthodontics, also known as teledentistry, involves the remote delivery of orthodontic care through the use of technology, such as video consultations, imaging software, and communication platforms. This innovative approach has the potential to revolutionize the way orthodontic treatment is monitored, offering greater convenience for patients and potentially improving treatment outcomes. The research will begin with a comprehensive review of the existing literature on teleorthodontics, orthodontic treatment monitoring, and related technologies. This review will provide a thorough understanding of the current state of teleorthodontics, including its applications, benefits, limitations, and implications for orthodontic care. By synthesizing this information, the research aims to identify gaps in the literature and areas where further investigation is needed. The study will then proceed to investigate the effectiveness of teleorthodontics in monitoring orthodontic treatment progress through a combination of quantitative and qualitative research methods. Data will be collected from orthodontic patients who have undergone treatment using teleorthodontics, as well as orthodontic professionals who have experience with this technology. The analysis will focus on various aspects of treatment monitoring, including the accuracy of remote assessments, patient satisfaction, treatment outcomes, and any challenges encountered during the process. The research overview will also address the potential limitations and ethical considerations associated with teleorthodontics, such as data security, patient privacy, and the need for in-person assessments. By acknowledging these challenges, the study aims to provide a balanced assessment of the benefits and risks of incorporating teleorthodontics into orthodontic care. Overall, the project "Effectiveness of Teleorthodontics in Monitoring Orthodontic Treatment Progress" seeks to contribute to the growing body of knowledge on teleorthodontics and its potential impact on orthodontic practice. By exploring the effectiveness of this innovative approach to treatment monitoring, the research aims to inform orthodontic professionals, patients, and policymakers about the opportunities and challenges associated with integrating teleorthodontics into routine orthodontic care.
