ORLAND PARK, Ill., October 5, 2023 (Newswire.com) - Orland Park’s Inspire Dental Wellness is providing all patients with the options they need for a healthy smile. This includes a wide range of custom orthodontic and dental appliances, including braces, implants, dentures, and more. 

As a trusted dental provider, the team at Inspire Dental Wellness has seen firsthand how custom dental devices can benefit patients. Custom appliances provide patients with an ideal fit for optimal results with their dental or orthodontic work. They also help minimize certain risks, such as pain and discomfort, tooth fractures, and other oral injuries, that can result in worsening or additional dental problems. 

Types of custom dental appliances currently offered by Inspire Dental Wellness include:

Braces — Functional orthodontics with airway support to treat bite problems, crooked and/or crowded teeth, and other orthodontic issues without compromising the jaw joint or patient’s breathing capacity. 

Clear Aligners — SureSmile invisible aligners are an alternative to traditional metal braces and are customized to a patient’s teeth using 3D imaging. 

Dentures — Partial and complete denture sets custom-fitted to a patient’s jaw. In addition to denture selection and fittings, Inspire Dental Wellness also offers as-needed adjustments to ensure long-term satisfaction. 

Bridges — Dental bridges replace missing teeth to restore bite and chewing abilities. Inspire Dental Wellness patients have the option of multiple bridge types based on their specific needs and goals. 

Implants — Inspire Dental Wellness offers All-On-4 implants for full-mouth dental reconstructions, a long-lasting solution that can be placed in just one appointment. 

Because all individual needs are different, Inspire Dental Wellness patients are provided with in-depth consultations and personalized treatment plans that take into account current oral health status and future goals. This personal approach continues into treatment itself, where custom dental and orthodontic appliances are expertly fitted for safe and efficient results.

CHICAGO, October 5, 2023 (Newswire.com) - Black Book™, recognized for accurate, impartial customer satisfaction surveys in the healthcare services and software industries, conducted a comprehensive crowdsourced user poll to determine the highest-ranked medical transcription software systems and outsourced virtual scribe services. Clients rated Cary, NC- headquartered AQuity Solutions with the highest customer satisfaction and loyalty scores in the sweeping study of user experience again for a tenth year.

In total, 806 hospitals and 2,274 physician practices responded to the Black Book polls in Q2-Q4 2023, measuring how providers are dealing with future-proofing their technology, decreasing staffing costs, and resource shortages with state-of-the-art transcription software and outsourced solutions.

"Medical transcription has become a critical part of the clinical documentation process as vendors are tested with the challenges of supporting clients as they go through healthcare reform and the progressive move toward value-based reimbursement," said Doug Brown, Managing Partner of Black Book.

Studies evidenced that traditional EHR charting has led to a reduced quality of the patient encounter as reported by 96% of physicians and 92% of office staff survey respondents, as well as clinician burnout reconfirmed by 90% of responding physicians. Eighty-five percent of 1,120 healthcare consumers (patients) also surveyed in a Black Book panel poll indicated they are dissatisfied with the abbreviated time spent with their physician in their last exam, both in-office and through telemedicine.

Business office managers and physician administrators report, on average, 39% or more loss of practice revenue caused by increased down-coding and fewer patient visits, including telemedicine encounters, since 2019, a 20% increase over the 2022 polling period.

"When practices use virtual scribes, clinicians see a significant reduction in time expended in non-clinical tasks, reduced queues for patient visits, improved documentation, and coding quality, and enhanced patient satisfaction," said Brown.

Based on the aggregate client experience and customer satisfaction scores on 18 key performance indicators, AQuity ranked first across 12 of the surveyed subsets including:

• Transcription Technology Software, Hospitals, and Inpatient Facility Practitioners.
• Transcription Technology Software, Physicians, and Ambulatory Care.
• Virtual/Outsourced Transcription Services, Hospitals, and Inpatient Facilities, Practitioners, and
• Virtual/Outsourced Transcription Services, Physicians, and Ambulatory Care.

"AQuity is recognized repeatedly for the success of the company because it has built on a winning combination of unparalleled customer service, innovative applications of technology, reliability, and transparent processes by seamlessly integrating EHR, artificial intelligence, and documentation workflow," said Brown.

Soviflex? Self-Retaining Vaginal Retractor
Soviflex? Self-Retaining Vaginal Retractor

MENLO PARK, Calif., October 5, 2023 (Newswire.com) - The Soviflex™ self-retaining vaginal retractor is a revolutionary device designed to improve the repair of vaginal lacerations caused by childbirth. About 80% of women experience vaginal tearing during delivery, and obstetricians have traditionally needed to use one hand to hold open the vaginal walls to see and be able to repair the lacerations and the other hand to suture the tears. The Soviflex retractor helps to streamline this process with improved visualization and no need for a second set of hands.

The retractor has a balance of flexibility and elasticity, enabling easy insertion without applying undue force on sensitive vaginal tissues. It is self-retaining, freeing up both hands for the procedure. Made of soft silicone material, it is gentler for the patient than metal retractors. It also reduces the risk of needlesticks to the surgeon or teaching physician. There are two versions of the device to address different patient body types.

According to Dr. Valerie V. Gafori, MD, in San Diego, California, "The Soviflex is not only an elegant solution to improve vaginal repairs for practicing providers, it's also a great teaching aid; one doesn't need to use their hands to provide visualization for students. I wish I had this when I was teaching residents. The Soviflex is also incredibly helpful for deep vaginal sulcus tears."

The Soviflex self-retaining vaginal retractor is the perfect solution for obstetricians attending deliveries. For more information and to request a sample for evaluation, visit www.birchconcepts.com.
