Interdisciplinary Treatment
A Collaborative Approach for the Best Care Possible

What is Interdisciplinary Treatment?
In dentistry, interdisciplinary treatment is an essential aspect of patient care to get a detailed assessment of the patient’s oral health. It involves the collaborative involvement of dental practitioners from different dental fields to contribute their expertise to provide a holistic treatment approach. This includes not only procedures like braces but also the use of retainers to ensure lasting results. From ensuring the real-time flow of communication and interaction between the interdisciplinary team members, sharing diagnoses, and deciding on treatment methods to administering prompt treatment, this treatment method is focused on enhancing the quality of care and providing long-term health benefits to the patient. Cases such as full-mouth rehabilitation and cosmetic dental corrections require assistance from an interdisciplinary team for a comprehensive and correct treatment. It seeks to enhance individuals’ overall well-being and satisfaction by addressing various aspects of oral health in a coordinated manner.
