Make Your Patients Feel Better Even Before They Leave Home to Their Appointment With You
Why?
When you decide to go to the doctor, most of the time it means you are worried about something. You become even more anxious when you leave home and arrive at the doctor’s office of your appointment. It might be useful to both patient and doctor to relieve at least some of this anxiety.
How?
You probably had this experience already: you had the appointment with your doctor, he prescribed some treatment, you leave, and you already feel better. You’re still sick, and nothing is “fixed” yet. You might even have to go to some further tests etc., but even your symptoms are not as acute. There is a psychological effect making you feel like this. It might be useful if you had some of this effect happen even before your visit. By calling your doctor, talking for a few minutes, you telling him why you are coming to see him shortly, and him listening and then assuring you in an authoritative way he’ll see you shortly, and you’ll continue from here, might have a similar effect – all before the visit.

3D Model of Your Teeth From a Panoramic X-Ray
Why?
To help patients visualize how their teeth look like and where the problems are.
How?
Have a software that takes the X-Ray and renders it in 3D, so the result looks less like a flat black and white photo of your teeth, and more like a color rendition of it. Colors can represent different conditions and facts.

Medical Help Now App
Why?
You toothaches or you have a splitting headache, maybe stomach cramps etc. It’s not a 911 situation but you need help now. This is for temporary help and comfort as well as quick diagnostic to know if further emergency help is needed.
How?
Have an app where you can with just a few clicks describe the problem and get connected to a doctor (dentist, GP or any specialist) that can firstly get all the details, and secondly come over and help (examine you and give medication if needed). Doctors apply and specify when they are available, and the app connects them with the patients.
