We all know the struggle of placing posterior pre-fabbed zirconia crowns on primary molars. Sometimes they fit like a glove, and sometimes they become a hot dumpster fire where you try 5 different crowns and none of them fit. Dr. Chad Davis, a pediatric dentist out of Arizona, and Dr. Andrew Johnson, a prosthodontist out of Arkansas, have worked together to develop Alphabyte. Alphabyte is a scanning system that allows you to quickly scan a primary molar and determine the correct crown size along with reduction discrepancies via a heat map to improve speed and efficiency with placing posterior crowns.
Chad and Andrew come on the podcast to discuss how they developed this system, and how Alphabyte has practical applications beyond zirconia crowns. They will be at AAPD at the Kinder Crown booth where attendees can get a hands-on demo to see how the product works. You can learn more at https://alphabytedental.com/
