It has an external electronics module more like a cell phone that the patient interacts with.  And the module is connected to an internal attachment that emits this ultrasonic therapy towards the afflicted roots of the teeth and stimulates the repair of problem on site.     The treatment is non- nvasive, is painless.  And it&rsquo;s easy to use by the patients. The patient would be required for use it for 20 minutes every day for a period between 4 weeks, maybe even  up to 4 or 5 months, depending on how severe is the affliction and what affliction they suffer from.<\/em> <\/p>\n<p> According to Cristian Scurtescu, SmileSonica should be ready for market in about two years.    <\/p>\n<p><em> Thanks today to <strong>ACAMP and Alberta Innovates Technology Futures<\/strong><\/em> <\/p>\n<p> <strong>FOR INNOVATION ANTHOLOGY<br \/> I&rsquo;M CHERYL CROUCHER<\/strong> <\/p>\n<h2>Guest<\/h2>\n<h3> , <\/h3>\n<h4>, , , , <\/h4>\n<h2>Sponsor<\/h2>\n<h3><a href=\"http:\/\/www.albertatechfutures.ca\">Alberta Innovates Technology Futures<\/a><\/h3>\n<p>Alberta Innovates launched its consolidation on November 1, 2016<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"et_pb_module et-waypoint et_pb_image et_pb_animation_off et_pb_image_5 et_always_center_on_mobile et_pb_image_sticky et-animated\"> \t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/albertainnovates.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/tech_futures_v2_icon.png\" \/> \t\t\t \t\t\t<\/div>\n<p><strong>780-450-5111<br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.albertatechfutures.ca\/\">albertatechfutures.ca<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>250 Karl Clark Road,<br \/>Edmonton, Alberta, Canada<br \/>T6N 1E4<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/innovationanthology.com\/uploads\/AI_Tech_RGB_smallForWeb.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Program Date:<\/strong>\u00a02011-11-01<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wouldn&rsquo;t it be nice to fix your teeth without going through the ordeal of a root canal?
