Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has an effect on all health workers, including dentists. Dental treatment has been established to be a key source of transmission due to aerosols and droplets. Teledentistry was a combination of telecommunications and dentistry as a device for faraway treatment plans and consultation. Implementing teledentistry in dental practice can improve dental health services during the COVID-19 pandemic. The purpose of this study is to find out the benefits of teledentistry during the Covid-19 pandemic. In the scoping review, the articles search on Pubmed and Proquest, published in 2020-2021. Eighteen articles were selected and included in the final screening. Based on 18 articles show that teledentistry has many benefits in dental health services and may be very useful during the COVID-19 pandemic.
