Emashumini ambalwa eminyaka adlule, ubuchwepheshe bedijithali buye bangena kuzo zonke izici zokuphila kwethu, kusukela endleleni esixhumana ngayo nesisebenza ngayo kuye endleleni esithenga ngayo, esifunda ngayo, nesifuna ngayo usizo lwezokwelapha.Inkambu eyodwa lapho umthelela wobuchwepheshe bedijithali uguqule kakhulu khona owodokotela bamazinyo.Izinqubo zesimanje zamazinyo seziqala ukubukeka njengamalebhu obuchwepheshe obuphezulu, anamathuluzi edijithali ayinkimbinkimbi nezinhlelo zesofthiwe ezithatha indawo yezindlela zendabuko, okuholela kulokho manje okuvame ukubizwa ngokuthi amazinyo edijithali.

 

I-Digital Dentistry iwukusetshenziswa kwezingxenye zedijithali noma ezilawulwa ngekhompuyutha ukwenza izinqubo zamazinyo kunokusebenzisa amathuluzi ayimishini noma kagesi.Ihlanganisa uxhaxha olubanzi lwamathuluzi namasu, okuhlanganisa ukuthwebula kwedijithali, i-CAD/CAM (Idizayini Esizwa Ikhompyutha/Ukukhiqiza Okusizwa Ngekhompyutha), ukuphrinta kwe-3D, nokugcinwa kwamarekhodi edijithali.Kulokhu okuthunyelwe kwebhulogi, sizohlola izinzuzo ezibalulekile zobudokotela bamazinyo bedijithali nokuthi baziguqula kanjani izinqubo zamazinyo.

 

  Ukuxilonga Okuthuthukisiwe Nokuhlelwa Kokwelashwa

Inzuzo eyodwa enkulu yodokotela bamazinyo bedijithali ukusetshenziswa kobuchwepheshe bokuxilonga obuthuthukisiwe njengezikena ze-intraoral kanye nama-X-ray edijithali.Izikena ze-Intraoral zidala izithombe ze-3D zangaphakathi komlomo ngokusebenzisa ubuchwepheshe bokuskena be-optical.Lokhu kuvumela odokotela bamazinyo ukuthi bathole okuvelayo okunembe kakhulu okusetshenziselwa izinqubo ezifana nemiqhele, amabhuloho, izigxivizo, izinsimbi, nokuningi.Ama-X-ray edijithali akhipha imisebe emincane kakhulu kunefilimu evamile yama-X-ray, kuyilapho enikeza izithombe ezinokulungiswa okuphezulu okulula ukuzigcina nokwabelana ngazo.Ngokuhlangene, lokhu kuxilongwa kwedijithali kususa ukuqagela futhi kunikeze ochwepheshe bamazinyo ulwazi olubanzi ukuze benze izinqumo ezinolwazi mayelana nezinhlelo zokwelashwa kwamazinyo.

 

  Ukunemba Okuthuthukisiwe kanye Nempumelelo
Ukusetshenziswa kobuchwepheshe be-CAD/CAM nokuphrinta kwe-3D kulethe izinga lokunemba nokusebenza kahle obekungatholakali ngaphambilini.Odokotela bamazinyo manje sebengakwazi ukuklama nokudala ukubuyiselwa kwamazinyo okufana nemiqhele, amabhuloho, nezimila ezihambisana kahle nobuhle, ngokuvamile ngokuvakasha okukodwa.Lokhu akunciphisi nje kuphela isikhathi isiguli esisichitha esihlalweni samazinyo kodwa futhi kuthuthukisa ikhwalithi iyonke yokubuyisela.

 

  Ukunqoba Ukukhathazeka Kwamazinyo
Ukukhathazeka kwamazinyo kuyisithiyo esivamile esivimbela abantu abaningi ekufuneni ukunakekelwa kwamazinyo okudingekayo.Udokotela wamazinyo wedijithali unikeza izixazululo ezintsha zokudambisa ukukhathazeka kwamazinyo nokudala umuzwa onethezeke kakhudlwana.Izikena ze-Intraoral ziqeda isidingo sezinto ezibonakalayo ezivamile, zehlisa ukungakhululeki futhi zinciphise izibangeli ezibangela ukukhathazeka.Ubuchwepheshe be-Virtual reality (VR) nabo buhlanganiswa nezinqubo zamazinyo, ukuhlinzeka iziguli ngolwazi olujulile nolubandakanyayo oluphazamisa izinqubo zamazinyo, ukunciphisa ukukhathazeka kanye nokuthuthukisa inhlalakahle jikelele.

 

  Imfundo Yeziguli Ethuthukisiwe
Okubonwayo kunamandla.Ngama-radiograph edijithali, izithombe ze-intraoral, nesithombe se-3D, odokotela bamazinyo bangabonisa ngokucacile iziguli ukuthi kwenzakalani emilonyeni yazo.Lokhu kuthuthukisa ukuqonda izimo zamazinyo nezinketho zokwelapha.Amavidiyo emfundo yesiguli kanye nezinsiza ezibukwayo nazo zingafakwa ngaphandle komthungo kumapulatifomu esoftware yamazinyo edijithali.Lokhu kuzuzisa iziguli ezifuna ukufunda okwengeziwe ngempilo yazo yomlomo.

 

  Ukugeleza Kokusebenza Okulula
Ukushintsha ukusuka kokuvelayo okujwayelekile namamodeli e-analog kuye kumaskeni edijithali nokwenziwa kwe-CAD/CAM kunikeza izinzuzo ezinkulu zokuhamba komsebenzi kumahhovisi wamazinyo.Izikena ze-Intraoral zikhululekile kakhudlwana ezigulini, ziyashesha kodokotela bamazinyo, futhi ziqeda isidingo sokugcina nokuphatha amamodeli aphathekayo.Amalebhu angakwazi ukwenza ngokushesha imiqhele, amabhuloho, okuqondanisa, nokunye okuningi kusuka kumafayela edijithali ngokugaya i-CAM.Lokhu kunciphisa izikhathi zokulinda ezigulini.

 

  Izinzuzo Zokuphatha Zijwayeze
Amasistimu okuphatha edijithali asiza izinqubo zamazinyo zonga isikhathi futhi zikhulise ukusebenza kahle.Izici ezifana ne-digital charting, izinhlelo zokuhlela ezididiyelwe, nokugcinwa kwamarekhodi okungenaphepha kwenza ukufinyelela nokuphatha ulwazi lwesiguli kusheshe kulo lonke ithimba lamazinyo.Izikhumbuzo zesikhathi esimisiwe, inkokhelo, izinhlelo zokwelashwa, nokuxhumana konke kungasingathwa nge-elekthronikhi.

 

  Ukufinyeleleka Okukhudlwana
Enye inzuzo ebalulekile ye-digital dentistry ukuthi ingenza ukunakekelwa kwamazinyo kufinyeleleke kalula.I-Teledentistry, noma amazinyo akude, ivumela odokotela bamazinyo ukuthi baxhumane, bahlonze, futhi bengamele ezinye izindlela zokwelapha bekude.Lokhu kunenzuzo ikakhulukazi kubantu basemaphandleni noma ezindaweni ezinganakekelwa kahle, okungenzeka bangakwazi ukufinyelela kalula ekunakekelweni kwamazinyo.

 

Nakuba kudinga ukutshalwa kwezimali kusengaphambili, ukuhlanganisa ubuchwepheshe bedijithali kunikeza izinqubo zamazinyo ngezinzuzo eziningi.Amathuluzi okuxilonga edijithali asezingeni eliphezulu, amandla okufunda esiguli athuthukisiwe, ukunemba okukhulisiwe kokwelashwa, nokusebenza kahle kokuzijwayeza ngezinye zezinzuzo ezibalulekile.Njengoba ukuthuthukiswa kwedijithali kuqhubeka, udokotela wamazinyo uzosebenza ngempumelelo nakakhulu ekuletheni ukunakekelwa kwezempilo komlomo okuphelele kanye nolwazi lwesiguli.Ukwenziwa ngedijithali kodokotela bamazinyo kokubili akunakugwenywa futhi kuhle ngekusasa lezinqubo zamazinyo.
