Online dental examination has been developed for patients who experience oral health issues but cannot or prefer not to visit a clinic.
From the comfort of your home or workplace, you can schedule an appointment, have a video consultation with your dentist, and receive an online diagnosis.
If the dentist determines that a physical examination is necessary during the online consultation, an in-clinic appointment can be organized.
