Background. Teledentistry is used in many countries to
provide oral health care services. However, using teledentistry to provide oral
health care services for older adults
is not well documented. This knowledge gap
needs to be addressed, especially when accessing a dental clinic is
not possible and teledentistry might be the only way for many older adults to receive
oral health care
services.
Keywords. Teledentistry; older adults; oral health
