Description of Services:
E-Dental Services, LLC presents The TeleDentists, a web-based dental consultation and referral system (Pat. Pending). We put virtual dentists in emergency rooms, health care clinics and on mobile devices. Our strategy is to make our virtual dental network the most convenient and cost effective way for people to access information and get help with their dental care needs. We are available to emergency rooms, urgent care centers, walk-in clinics, telehealth companies or even primary care providers for appropriate triage services. Our dentists provide patients/providers with consultations for palliative care recommendations, such as medications, and then make an actual dental appointment for their patient. We have created the first kiosk/app teledental system which people can access where and when they need our help.
