Problem
Traditional orthodontic treatment requires frequent in-person visits to monitor progress, creating inconvenience and potential barriers to access for patients. These frequent appointments can be particularly challenging for those with busy schedules or who live far from their orthodontist's office.
Solution
Grin provides a digital platform that facilitates remote orthodontic monitoring, reducing the need for frequent in-office appointments. The system utilizes the Grin Scope, a device used by patients to capture detailed scans of their teeth, which are then submitted to their orthodontist via a mobile app. This allows orthodontists to remotely track treatment progress, provide feedback, and adjust treatment plans as needed. By enabling remote monitoring, Grin aims to make orthodontic care more convenient, accessible, and cost-effective for both patients and providers.
