FAQs

A virtual dental consultation is a remote appointment where patients can discuss their dental concerns, ask questions, and receive professional advice from a dentist using video conferencing technology.

To book a virtual dental consultation, visit your dental provider's website or contact their office directly. They will provide you with instructions on how to schedule an appointment and access the video conferencing platform.

You will need a device with a camera, microphone, and internet connection, such as a smartphone, tablet, or computer. A stable internet connection is important for a smooth consultation experience.

While virtual dental consultations can provide valuable information and guidance, they may not be a complete substitute for in-person appointments. Physical examinations, cleanings, and some treatments can only be performed in person.

Dentists can often provide a preliminary assessment and suggest potential treatment options during a virtual consultation. However, a final diagnosis and detailed treatment plan may require an in-person visit for a comprehensive examination.

Most dental providers use secure video conferencing platforms that adhere to privacy and security regulations. However, it's always a good idea to check with your provider about the specific measures they take to protect your personal information.

Many insurance providers cover virtual dental consultations, but coverage can vary. Contact your insurance company to verify if they cover tele-dentistry services and to what extent.

Dentists may prescribe medication during a virtual consultation if they determine it is necessary and appropriate. However, certain medications or situations may require an in-person examination.

While virtual consultations can help assess dental emergencies, they cannot replace immediate in-person care. If you're experiencing severe pain, swelling, or signs of infection, it is important to seek urgent dental care.

Virtual dental consultations can be helpful for discussing dental concerns, but they cannot replace in-person checkups that involve a thorough oral examination, cleaning, and X-rays. Regular in-person checkups are essential for maintaining good oral health.
