Abstract

Teleorthodontics has emerged as a transformative tool in delivering modern-day orthodontic treatment. The successful clinical integration of teleorthodontics and its platforms into orthodontic practice requires a careful assessment of several key considerations, including robust data security, compliance with relevant privacy regulations, and adherence to applicable legal and ethical standards. Providers must assess the varying features offered by each platform to choose the most suitable application for both the provider's and office's needs. Teleorthodontics still comes with a few limitations. Technological barriers from patients and providers alike, as well as a lack of standardized protocols and guidelines for the use of teleorthodontics, pose hurdles to the smooth clinical integration. As future research studies and increased clinical applications continue to validate its efficacy, teleorthodontics is poised for growth. This article aims to engage readers with the applications of teleorthodontics and help them make informed decisions for the successful integration of these platforms into clinical practice.
