Carestream Dental and MouthWatch to Deliver Enhanced Teledentistry Solution
Doctors who use Carestream Dental’s digital imaging and practice management solutions will soon have greater access to the TeleDent teledentistry platform from MouthWatch.

Office closures required because of the coronavirus have made it difficult for orthodontists to see patients directly, but connecting remotely can allow them to communicate without the close physical contact. Teledentistry can provide an alternative for patients to connect and receive timely help and professional advice.

TeleDent lets patients contact the office if they have questions or an emergency and enables livestreaming video consultations to facilitate remote treatment planning, supervision and collaboration in real time and at the provider’s convenience.
