Oral health & health IT

Hi everyone,

I am a dentist practicing in Dunedin, NZ and is new to the eHealth forum. I am wondering if there are other oral health practitioners here? I would love to be a part of a discussion on oral health IT in NZ- particularly excited for the TAS Electronic Oral Health Record program discussed here https://ehealthforum.nz/t/hiso-10059-2021-oral-health-data-standard/21308?u=amyc

Thank you!

There are a small number, but as we weren’t specifically looking for them we may have missed some.

So I’ve made a group for you: @dental. You can either reply here in this thread to reach them or send a personal message to the group. I’ve also added dental as an option for Clinical Profession

If you are interested in kicking off some great conversations among IT interested oral professionals and make it really something, we’d love to help you. First we really would need to reach them of course!

I am not an oral health practitioner but have been involved with the WHO Be He@lthy Be Mobile initiative, including on the mOralHealth expert group. As part of this I was involved in the development of the ā€˜Mobile technologies for oral health: an implementation guide’ and associated resources https://www.who.int/publications/i/item/9789240035225

Happy to discuss if you are interested.

Wow cool! Thanks for sharing Rosie, I am doing an assignment on oral health apps for my digital health study, this document would be so handy!
