INSPIRED DIAGNOSTIC SOLUTIONS

As a board-certified pediatric dentist, I enjoy using the TelScope in the clinical setting for several months, now. I am
primarily utilizing it to document oral lesions and other clinical findings and then upload those into the patient’s chart. I am also using the device to expand my clinical “library” for case presentations for teaching purposes with pediatric dentistry residents. However, I am most excited about the potential for digital triage, screening, and referrals inter-professionally (dental-dental, dental-medical, medical-medical). The ease with which a clinician can illuminate and examine the entire oral cavity and throat, capture images, and then connect and securely transmit those images with any desired mark-up and commentary can greatly enhance efficient and timely referral, improve patient satisfaction, and address the difficulties of access for rural and underserved populations. We have begun fielding TelScopes into several rural pediatric medical practices in our state, and I look forward to seeing measurable results in the near future.

Great! Showed my colleagues today the quality of the footage and they were so impressed 👍

First let me say that I absolutely love my TelScope. I demonstrate it to my colleagues in the Nutrition, Feeding, and Swallowing program for the state of NH.

the TelScope is a fantastic idea. I’ve actually just recently purchased only for myself and am so impressed with how easy it is to use, and the fact that you can take video footage and still images is going to be a game changer I think!

I used the TelScope to show my own orthodontist something he wanted to see. I plan to show the device to classes, clinicians, parents, and patients I teach.

I was able to visualize that tonsils and uvula had been removed and got a clear image of the throat! While viewing the same image, I captured a clear image of a filling on a back tooth.

I really like how the Telscope works, it is user friendly and easy to use. I would recommend it.

I’m Sherri Lukes and have been a hygienist for 40 years, teaching general/oral pathology and conducting research at So Ill University. In teaching oral pathology, getting good quality images can be difficult. Running around the clinic to locate the intraoral camera to capture images of lesions can also be challenging. I recently used Holland Healthcare’s Telscope intraoral camera while doing mission work in Mexico. The fact that it attaches right to my cell phone made it very easy to use. The app has multiple features that can be especially useful to enhance images for better diagnosis. We were able to capture an image of a lesion, send it digitally (and securely) to a dental practitioner in the states and achieve a clinical diagnosis in a matter of minutes. I see great potential for this type of camera in dental practices.

 I’ve adapted the TelScope system to facilitate intraoral forensic imaging on a dedicated device in my armetarium at the medical examiner’s department. Every case I examine requires a full odontogram and photos of the dentition, along with radiographs, but some cases present more challenges to accomplish these needs. Not only has the TelScope made intraoral forensic photography easier for me, simply using the device for the outstanding intraoral illumination and crystal clear visualization has assisted me to be more efficient during dental charting as well.

I would love to be able to provide this to my aged care facility staff. I can’t see my patients anymore with restrictions so these would help us SO much when providing advice to patients from afar. We are starting to use teledentistry modes to help the elderly in these facilities but it’s hard when a professional can’t be present! What an awesome invention!

The way that we are using the telscope system is in our community outreach sealant program and nursing home program. I first purchased laptops and intraoral cameras to use for a teledentistry sealant program to be able to store and forward pictures of molars for sealants to be prescribed. The first school that I went to I had practiced getting on the internet by remotely VPNing into University server in the parking lot of the school and it worked. The day we went to do the screening and was inside the building I had difficulty getting thru the school’s firewalls etc. We were delayed an hour while the elementary school IT and the University’s IT people worked on the issue. I had started researching your product before I ever saw you at RDH Under One Roof and realized that this system could solve my issue of logging into the school’s internet and having to use up other people’s time trying to solve my problems since I am not q tech savvy person. The next school we screened we used the TelScope system and it was so much easier to use. I was able to store the information and bring it back to our supervising dentist. We came up with a system when the doctor looks at the photo’s he uses the draw function on the Ipad screen and puts a checkmark if we can place a sealant on the molar and places his initials and then we can go back and put notes in the patient’s chart after he is done. The students were also using the draw feature to label the tooth numbers of the photos. The next thing we are going to implement is the diagnodent score directly on the photo of the tooth so he has more than just a photo to prescribe from. We also used the system at our nursing home rotations and took photos after placing the disclosing solution on the patients so we would have a record of before and after photos to show the improvement that we are having on the resident’s oral health care. The photos are so much clearer than the intraoral camera photo’s that we have been taking. We are still learning how to get the images that we want but after the training we had yesterday I hope that it will improve.

Using the TelScope in our practice has helped to streamline patient visits, facilitate communication with other specialists, and put patients at ease from their own homes. The TelScope allows us to do more and increase reimbursement without having to work harder. Plus, patients actually prefer the option. It’s a win-win situation for us.

Thank you so much for developing the TelScope!
As a myofunctional therapist this device changed my life. The TelScope has enhanced my ability to to take clear images of my patients oral cavity. I no longer have to struggle with getting good lighting to take images during my evaluation.
My evaluations are so much smoother now. Images come out clear and all saved in the patient’s file.

Imagine a hygienist out there training medical professionals how to recognize pathology using this tool. It could be a game changer!

The TelScope has enhanced my ability to document progress from assessment to discharge.

Assessing oral health and hygiene is now made extra easy for dental and non-dental care professionals. The high res images make record keeping and teledentistry consults fast, accurate, and super comfortable for the patient. Definitely on a winner for teledentistry as well as all of the many other uses

I am excited to use TelScope this weekend performing oral cancer screenings at our Mission of Mercy. This will be a game changer, we can now capture photos and send them to a specialist.

I had the opportunity use TelScope at COMOM this year. I used it on every patients, ❤️ it. When a suspicious lesion was present it was awesome to get the phone and capture a picture to a HIPPA compliant app for an Oral Surgeon to reference to.

This is a product that I have been using like crazy with a few of my /k/ and /g/ kids, actually all of my kids. It also looks like a light saber which makes every kid want to do it. Finally a therapy tool we can afford!
