Your Virtual Orthodontic Check-Ins
Grin Dental Monitoring at Kraus Orthodontics
Ready to level up the way you get your orthodontic care? Dr. Kraus uses Grin Dental Monitoring to remotely monitor your smile via a simple smartphone app and a small scanning device. It’s modern orthodontic care built around your schedule, so you have more time for what matters.
What Is Grin Dental Monitoring?
Grin is a virtual care platform that lets Dr. Kraus track your orthodontic progress from anywhere. Using the Grin App and a reusable scanning adapter, you’ll send quick, guided videos of your teeth directly to our team. These scans provide detailed views of your alignment, oral hygiene, appliance fit, and treatment progress — all without stepping foot in the office.
This technology gives you the same expert attention you expect in person, but with greater convenience, faster feedback, and fewer disruptions to your day.
How Grin Makes Your Treatment Easier
Download the App
You’ll start by downloading the free Grin App and pairing it with the reusable Grin Scope. The app walks you through setup step by step, making the process simple even if you’re not tech-savvy.
Complete a Quick Scan
Using your phone and the scope, you’ll record a guided video of your teeth in less than a minute. The system captures high-quality images from multiple angles so Dr. Kraus can assess your progress with precision.
Dr. Kraus Reviews Your Progress
Your scans are instantly sent to our team for review. Dr. Kraus evaluates tooth movement, appliance fit, hygiene, and overall progress, then sends personalized guidance directly through the app.
Fewer In-Office Visits
If everything looks great, you may not need to come in. If something needs attention, we’ll reach out right away. Grin helps us catch issues early and keep treatment moving smoothly.
