Teledentistry for Virtual Dental Care
Teledentistry is the use of electronic information, imaging and communication technologies, including interactive audio, video, data communications as well as store and forward technologies, to provide and support dental care delivery, diagnosis, consultation, treatment, transfer of dental information and education.
It can include virtual consultations and high-tech monitoring of patients which offer less expensive and more convenient care options for patients. Teledentistry reflects a broader, changing healthcare landscape that is moving toward innovation, integration and convenient care.
