Pioneering TMJ Treatment Collaborates With In Hand Dental For Superior Patient Monitoring

In a significant development for the dental industry, In Hand Dental, a Kansas-based company known for its HIPAA-compliant platform facilitating remote monitoring, teledentistry, and virtual consultations/appointments, has announced a strategic partnership with Dr. Anthony P. Urbanek. Dr. Urbanek, the inventor of the Urbanek TMJ Device & Protocol, has garnered attention for his device's high success rate in treating Temporomandibular Joint Disorders (TMD) without the need for surgery or medications.

According to an independent university study, the Urbanek TMJ Device has demonstrated an effectiveness rate of 85-95% and has been instrumental in treating over 4,000 patients successfully. With this partnership, Dr. Urbanek aims to introduce his innovative device to a broader audience within the dental profession by incorporating the In Hand Dental app into his treatment protocol.

Dr. Urbanek expressed his enthusiasm about the collaboration, highlighting the potential benefits for both practitioners and patients. "The In Hand Dental app will significantly enhance patient management for practitioners utilizing my device and improve compliance and treatment success rates," he stated. The app's integration into his protocol is expected to simplify the treatment process considerably.

The In Hand Dental app offers unique features such as a patented compliance scorecard and real-time communication capabilities between dentists and patients. This allows for dynamic adjustments to treatment protocols based on data collected through the app, ensuring more personalized and effective patient care.

Michael Gassman, CEO of In Hand Dental and creator of the app, shared his excitement about adding TMJ/TMD patient monitoring to the app's capabilities. "We're thrilled to partner with Dr. Urbanek. Our app is already assisting dentists and orthodontists in monitoring a variety of treatments. This new addition will further our mission to enhance dental care through technology," Gassman remarked.

Dental practitioners interested in exploring the benefits of the In Hand Dental remote monitoring app are invited to view a private 20-minute demonstration and learn about early adopter pricing opportunities.
