"VSee Health is thrilled to partner with The TeleDentists in impacting senior oral health and making dental care convenient and accessible to skilled nursing facilities and other long-term care facilities," said Dr. Milton Chen, Co-CEO of VSee Health. "Integrating our digital health platform with PointClickCare's industry-leading healthcare technology platform opens the door for more providers to leverage the strengths of both platforms and to easily access The TeleDentists' services to deliver exceptional care and improve health outcomes for seniors."

Maria Kunstadter, DDS, CEO of The TeleDentists stated, "Teledentistry is a game-changer for senior care facilities, offering timely, accessible dental care that's often a challenge for residents with mobility issues. With VSee technology, we are able to bring dental care to them virtually. Now, we can address oral health needs before they become serious problems, ultimately improving quality of life and reducing overall health risks. Together with VSee, The TeleDentists are using innovation to enhance convenience for patients and staff—it's a critical step toward providing the comprehensive, compassionate care our seniors deserve."

Nursing Home Administrator Suzanne Green Johnston, M.A. offered, "I heartily endorse this innovative program available from TeleDentists!

Background: Oral Health of Seniors in Long Term Care Settings

CMS regulation 483.55 requires long-term care programs to provide dental services, including emergency dental care and denture referrals within three days. However, long-term care (LTC) settings often struggle to provide adequate oral care to its residents with 84% of dependent LTC residents not receiving needed dental care. This can be due to lack of oral care training, limited budget, and understaffing, which impacts their ability to safely transport patients for dental exams, especially those with reduced mobility. Research has also shown that some LTC residents may resist receiving dental care while others choose not to report oral issues so as not to "be a bother."

It is important to overcome these barriers, however, because of the important role oral health plays in ensuring good overall health in seniors. Many studies have found links between oral hygiene and cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and pneumonia. Untreated oral health issues can contribute to pain, poor nutrition, and diminished quality of life among the elderly.

Transforming Senior Care through Advanced Telehealth Integration

The new TeleDentists integrated solution on the PointClickCare Marketplace provides a practical and efficient way to provide dental care to patients in LTC settings via telehealth. Powered by VSee Health's customizable digital health platform, The TeleDentists are able to tailor and white-label their video dental visit programs to each client's needs. With this new integration, tracking and documentation can now be automatically synced with the PointClickCare platform, reducing LTC providers' documentation burden and improving care coordination among clinicians and caregivers.
