Abstract Details

2019, Master of Science, Ohio State University, Dentistry.
A teledentistry pilot program began at Nationwide Children’s Hospital in March 2018, connecting patients at medical sites with an oral- or tooth-related chief complaint to the Department of Dentistry via synchronous video consultation. This research project sought to assess the feasibility, acceptability, and sustainability of the program. A three-pronged survey approach evaluated patient/family, medical provider, and dentist perspectives on the experience. The overall attitudes regarding this service were positive among all groups involved, and teledentistry appears to be an acceptable service. A larger sample size is required to assess feasibility and sustainability of this program.
