Abstract
e-DENT project was born in 2012. In 2014 the first oral teleconsultation was made between a nursing home in Uzès and the University Hospital of Montpellier (60 km). Since then, more than 2000 oral teleconsultations have been realized for different kind of patients: elderly people, disabled people, inmate, patients with chronic disease, etc.
This innovative project improves the quality of oral care for several populations in the south of France. Now University Hospital of Montpellier is considered as the expert center of oral teleconsultation in France and Europe.
This chapter will resume every step of the project: legal, political, and economical aspects and all examples of populations tested in this project.
