Teledentistry
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Teledentistry is the use of information technology and telecommunications for dental care, consultation,[1] education, and public awareness in the same manner as telehealth and telemedicine.[citation needed]
Teldentistry can also be used to assist general dentists with specialty work[2] and improve services to underserved populations such as in rural or less developed areas.[3]
