A text book on Teledentistry

Description

Teledentistry has arisen as a revolutionary force in the field of dentistry in recent years, bringing novel solutions to improve patient care and access to dental treatments. Teledentistry has been a driving factor behind this transformation. In this book, the multifarious nature of teledentistry is investigated, and a complete overview of its principles, applications, and impact on the delivery of oral healthcare is provided.
The voyage into teledentistry starts with an examination of its fundamental ideas, focusing on its development and the technological developments that have been the driving force behind its expansion. In order to improve patient outcomes and enhance the practice of dentistry, teledentistry represents a convergence of technology, policy, and ethics. This convergence includes the incorporation of electronic health records as well as the legal and ethical issues that dictate its implementation.
Teledentistry is able to overcome geographical obstacles, which enables clinicians to conduct consultations, diagnostics, and treatment planning remotely. This is one of the most significant advantages of this field. In this book, the author digs into the practical aspects of teledentistry, providing insights into how technology is being utilized to diagnose oral disorders, provide dental hygiene services remotely, and improve oral care programs all around the world.
Additionally, the worldwide perspective of teledentistry is
investigated, with a particular emphasis placed on its deployment in a number of countries, such as Australia, Brazil, and India, as well as its function during the COVID-19 pandemic situation. The purpose of these case studies is to illustrate the various applications of teledentistry and its ability to handle the specific difficulties that are encountered by various locations with varying degrees of difficulty.
As the area of teledentistry continues to develop, the purpose of this book is to provide dental practitioners, educators, researchers, and policymakers with a complete resource that can answer all of their questions. We hope that by investigating the theoretical underpinnings, practical applications, and worldwide impact of teledentistry, we will be able to encourage additional innovation and collaboration in this fascinating field.
