Delta Dental’s virtual dentistry: Improving access to care with Teledentistry.com

As part of our commitment to enhancing access to quality dental care, Delta Dental is excited to announce that Teledentistry.com, our trusted partner, now offers virtual dentistry visits, providing you with a convenient and efficient way to give care to our members. Our previous partner, quip, will no longer offer teledentistry platform services. 
 

Convenient access to care through Teledentistry.com

Teledentistry.com allows you to conduct virtual consultations with patients through phone, text or video. You can address patient concerns, provide instructions and determine any need for in-person visits. 
 

An essential tool for providing personalized care 

Teledentistry.com offers several service advantages, including:

  • Accessing an in-network PPO provider for photo or video consultations 24 hours a day, seven days a week; 
  • Providing nationwide coverage;
  • Offering prescription eligibility for video visits; 
  • Making immediate or scheduled appointments; 
  • Integrating eligibility checks through the platform or with a live customer support agent; and
  • Building the coinsurance calculation and the option to pay out of pocket into the platform.
     

With teledentistry, you can connect with patients promptly, even outside regular office hours. Whether they have quick questions or acute dental concerns, the online portal allows you to give professional advice without delay. 

You can triage a patient’s case, determining if immediate intervention is necessary or if the issue can wait for an in-person appointment. This efficient process ensures that urgent cases receive timely attention while optimizing appointment availability for all.

Teledentistry also allows you to serve a broader patient base without compromising quality. No matter where you are, you can consult with patients from the comfort of your office, home or anywhere.

With Teledentistry.com, you can prescribe medications during video consultations, ensuring seamless care delivery. 
 

Safe consultations

The platform can also help enhance safety protocols by minimizing your risk of exposure to infectious diseases through reducing the number of unnecessary in-person visits. Virtual consultations can also help minimize the overhead costs associated with physical office visits, streamlining administrative tasks and paperwork through digital communication.
 

Serving diverse populations

Elderly individuals can access care without the challenges of transportation or mobility limitations, and it bridges the gap for those living in remote regions and those with busy lifestyles, connecting them to dental professionals instantly. Delta Dental’s partnership with Teledentistry.com empowers patients to prioritize oral health conveniently.
