La transformaci\u00f3n digital tambi\u00e9n ha llego al ramo de la odontolog\u00eda, al agilizar y favorecer procesos que tomar\u00edan m\u00e1s tiempo. Tecnolog\u00edas como los esc\u00e1neres intraorales y faciales, tomograf\u00edas computarizadas, software para dise\u00f1o asistido por computadora, impresi\u00f3n 3D, dispositivos port\u00e1tiles, entre otros, forman parte de esta transformaci\u00f3n nombrada odontolog\u00eda digital o digital dentistry. Revistas cient\u00edficas especializadas en odontolog\u00eda como Dental Materials, han publicado art\u00edculos en relaci\u00f3n con este tema. El art\u00edculo: Odontolog\u00eda digital: el nuevo estado del arte: \u00bfes disruptivo o destructivo? publicado en la edici\u00f3n de enero de 2020, explora el alcance de la tecnolog\u00eda en la odontolog\u00eda y c\u00f3mo la ha mejorado durante los \u00faltimos tiempos. Adem\u00e1s, la publicaci\u00f3n explica que la odontolog\u00eda digital va m\u00e1s all\u00e1 de los esc\u00e1neres intraorales, ya que hay una gran variedad de nuevas t\u00e9cnicas desarrolladas para el ejercicio odontol\u00f3gico como sistemas que han mejorado la atenci\u00f3n a pacientes en cirug\u00edas, y desarrollo de pr\u00f3tesis dentales. Adem\u00e1s, la odontolog\u00eda digital ha abierto oportunidades para la investigaci\u00f3n de los cient\u00edficos de materiales. De esta forma los nuevos enfoques suelen brindar mayor eficiencia y precisi\u00f3n, seg\u00fan explican la autora, E. Dianne Rekow. Asimismo, destaca el gran avance en el uso de datos: \u201cLos datos se pueden extraer de manera m\u00e1s eficiente para usos forenses y epidemiol\u00f3gicos\u201d. La odontolog\u00eda digital contempla no solo el trabajo de profesionales en esta \u00e1rea de especializaci\u00f3n, sino tambi\u00e9n ingenieros, tecn\u00f3logos, desarrolladores de software, entre otros. Para ello es necesaria la educaci\u00f3n digital de los pr\u00f3ximos profesionales.
