In recent years, teledentistry has gained visibility, especially because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Concerning oral medicine, there is great expectation, particularly about its potential to promote early diagnosis of oral lesions. In southern Brazil, two initiatives have shown a positive influence on each other and have led to greater awareness of oral cancer and more access to qualified advice on diagnosing and managing oral lesions. Although the contributions of this approach are promising, there are barriers to be overcome.
近年来,远程牙科越来越受到关注,尤其是由于新冠疫情。关于口腔医学,人们寄予厚望,特别是其在促进口腔病变早期诊断方面的潜力。在巴西南部,两项举措相互产生了积极影响,提高了人们对口腔癌的认识,并使人们有更多机会获得有关口腔病变诊断和管理的专业建议。尽管这种方法的贡献很有前景,但仍有障碍需要克服。
