Telediagnosis of dental caries: Possible or impossible? A pilot cross‐sectional study
Abstract Objectives The aims of this study were to evaluate the effectiveness of teledentistry (based on a home intraoral imaging protocol) in detecting dental caries and to assess the accuracy of this method compared to clinical examination. Methods Forty‐three patients were recruited for the study. Using a protocol for taking intraoral photographs at
