 MouthWatch TeleDent Upgrades Help Dentists Deliver Urgent Care During Coronavirus Pandemic

With the American Dental Association (ADA) and state dental associations urging dental offices to suspend elective and preventative dental care during the coronavirus outbreak, many dentists are trying to figure out how to best treat patients who need urgent care.  

The updated MouthWatch TeleDent software gives dentists a way to deliver urgent care safely, according to a press release.

New software features include a patient portal that allows dentists to communicate directly with patients without them needing to come to the office; personalized virtual consultations that use secure live video and allow for more in-depth screenings; provider messaging that makes it easy for providers working remotely to screen patients before scheduling an office visit; cloud collaboration to reduce intra-office travel; and teledentistry-powered cameras that enable team members to send diagnostic images and patient data to remote care providers.

And through upgraded home diagnostics and monitoring, patients can be shipped an intraoral camera to enable remote clinical evaluation, with images and videos shared through a patient portal.

MouthWatch also has developed “a three-step plan to deploy TeleDent and flatten the curve, provide support for urgent dental care needs and help practices navigate these challenging times.” That plan includes:

-A Free On-Demand Webinar. “How Teledentistry Can Help Your Practice Respond to COVID-19” is presented by MouthWatch CEO Brant Herman and infection control expert, Michelle Strange, RDH.

-A Free 30-day TeleDent License. The set-up fee is also waived to help get practices up and running quickly. Use coupon code RESPOND at checkout.

-Accelerated Onboarding. MouthWatch has expanded its in-house capabilities to accommodate increased demand for TeleDent training and implementation.
