mHealth & Dentistry

mHealth is a component of eHealth. The application of wireless and mobile technology to support the accomplishment of health objectives has the potential to fundamentally revolutionize the way health services are delivered worldwide. Nearly every aspect of healthcare might be redesigned by mHealth technology, which would also greatly advance our knowledge of human physiology across health and disease. Mobile applications foster oral hygiene, help patients feel less anxious about their treatments, and give clinicians access to the most recent developments in the dental field. Smartphone apps have the potential to transform the standard practices of dentistry to the next level. This book compiles the use and potential of mHealth in every aspect of dentistry.
