Abstract
Marking dental prostheses and appliances enhances patient identification and the continuity of care. This article presents a technique using the Near Field Communication (NFC) technology. The low-cost miniature NFC chip, programmable through smartphones, can be embedded into dental prostheses or appliances to securely store and retrieve the patient's medical and dental information. This method allows immediate access to essential data in clinical and emergency situations, improves documentation, and provides a versatile solution for contemporary prosthodontic practice.
