Abstract
Teleorthodontics, a subset of teledentistry, involves the use of digital communication technologies to provide remote orthodontic care. This approach enables orthodontists to diagnose, monitor and manage patients’ treatment without the need of in person visits. The concept has garnered traction due to advancements in telecommunication technologies, increasing accessibility to smart phones, and the need for remote healthcare services. Despite skepticism, there are several advantages of including tele- orthodontics in the clinical orthodontic practice. This article reviews the strength and weaknesses of this emerging healthcare communication system and its impact on orthodontics, which is set to transform the future of our clinical practice.
