With an increase in life expectancies, at times medical service fails to keep pace with the momentum as required. Dental service is no exception to the rule and dentists are finding it difficult the necessary time to reach all their patients. Thus, getting dental service assistance in emergency times is a concern for aged, paralyzed and bedridden. Sometimes even the elderly, due to their limited mobility are not able to visit the clinic physically, thereby remain deprived of dental treatments in time. Now, in order to bridge the gap between dentists and patients, the mobile dentist comes as a major relief to get timely treatment. Patients here can call the dentists to their doorsteps for addressing necessary dental issues. Indeed, the mobile dentist has been a boon for those who have issues with walking down to the dental clinic.

Another way of getting treated is through tele dentists, where patients have access to dentists and vice versa through video and audio conferencing. It is functional on a software platform, where tele dentist reaches patients through chatting and after collecting due information now have the ability to advise medication. Patients in need of emergency dental care, such as an acute toothache or any related ailment could contact a dentist at any time and from anywhere. Even dentists serving on this platform have cited tremendous responses as it really changed the scenario in the treating of patients. Hence, it is a win-win situation for both patient and dentist.
