    From the WHO–Oral diseases affect about 3.5 billion people around the world. As well as impacting health, they also affect overall well-being and quality of life, especially where resources for prevention, diagnosis and treatment are limited. Approaches based on new digital health technologies can contribute to better oral health for all. Teledentistry can be the tool. It is estimated 97% of the global population can access a cell phone–now we can deliver education on prevention, palliative recommendations and triage, Let’s make a global impact and truly improve oral health.
    Where do you see the applications?
