In this episode of <a href="https://coruzant.com/profiles/robert-b-kerstein/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Digital Executive</a>, host Brian Thomas welcomes Dr. Robert B. Kerstein, a pioneer in digital occlusal analysis and long-time advocate for advancing dental science through technology. A former Tufts University professor and prosthodontic expert, Dr. Kerstein has spent decades perfecting how dentists measure and correct the human bite using T-Scan technology—the world’s first computerized system for analyzing occlusal forces in real time.Dr. Kerstein explains how early tools like articulating paper and ink, still used in many dental offices today, fail to accurately measure bite pressure—often leading to patient discomfort, prosthesis failure, and repeat visits. In contrast, the T-Scan system captures dynamic force and timing data, allowing clinicians to deliver faster, more precise, and minimally invasive bite adjustments.He details how digital occlusal analysis not only improves patient comfort but also reduces remakes, chair time, and long-term complications—transforming both clinical outcomes and dental practice efficiency. Looking ahead, Dr. Kerstein envisions a future where AI-driven occlusal insights and digital workflows become standard, closing the final gap in modern dentistry’s digital transformation.Whether you’re a dental innovator, clinician, or technology enthusiast, this episode reveals how measured digital occlusion is redefining what’s possible in patient care and precision dentistry.If you liked what you heard today, please leave us a review - <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-digital-executive/id1501617739" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Apple</a> or <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/7xh1QyiRGwY9kZx0JB4KZA" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Spotify</a>.See Privacy Policy at <a href="https://art19.com/privacy" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://art19.com/privacy</a> and California Privacy Notice at <a href="https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info</a>.
