Teledentistry and its use in dental education. Teledentistry is
a relatively new field that combines telecommunication
technology and dental care. Most dentists and dental educators
are unaware that teledentistry can be used not only for
increased access to dental care, but also for advanced dental
education. TYPE OF STUDIES REVIEWED: The authors describe
teledentistry as it is applied worldwide, as well as its uses in
education. Teledentistry in education can be divided into two
main categories: self-instruction and interactive
videoconferencing. Both of these methods have been used in
several studies and countries. Version: za2963e q8zae q8zb6
