Awareness of teledentistry has grown throughout the COVID-19 pandemic as practices look for ways to stay open and serve patients while reducing risk of exposure. While implementing teledentistry can provide no-risk care by eliminating direct contact, it also has wider use cases and long-term practice benefits that include increased revenue, reduced cost, and greater efficiency.
“In today’s post-pandemic world, combining in-patient care with teledentistry just makes good business sense.”
Margaret Scarlett, DMD – in Teledentistry ROI whitepaper
In a whitepaper written by Dr. Margaret Scarlett for the ADA, Dr. Scarlett makes the case for the ROI of teledentistry post-pandemic and provides an overview of several key ways practices can successfully use teledentistry.
Using example calculations, modeled on one of several use cases for teledentistry, Dr. Scarlett makes a strong case supporting teledentistry’s ROI potential. After reading the whitepaper, practices will also be able to calculate their own sample ROI with the model she uses.
