What will be an ideal response?


Teledentistry programs have been developed to help dentists access specialists, improving patient care. One system uses the Internet and requires a computer and digital camera. The general dentist can e-mail a patient's chart, including images, to the specialist, who can suggest both diagnosis and treatment. This saves the patient time and travel, and it gives her or him access to expert advice.
