Establishing relationship with patients via teledentistry

Notwithstanding the limitations provided in Section 40-15-540, a licensee may establish a relationship with a patient through teledentistry only: (1) for the purpose of emergent care; (2) in connection with a public health program; or (3) to make an initial diagnosis of a malposition of teeth and to determine the need for an orthodontic appliance. An initial diagnosis and determination made pursuant to this item must be confirmed through an in-person visit and review of the patient's current radiographic records before the patient begins using the orthodontic appliance.
