Careington® Announces Launch of National Teledentistry Program

FRISCO, Texas - Feb. 3, 2021 - PRLog -- Careington International Corporation announces the launch of a teledentistry program through affiliate company DialCare, offering 24/7 access to licensed dentists nationwide* via phone or video consultation. Teledentistry combines the technology of DialCare's telemedicine platform with Careington's 40 years of dental benefits expertise.

Careington owns and operates some of the largest discount and PPO dental networks in the U.S. that provide significant dental care savings. Careington is known for the strength of its dental networks. Through our affiliated, nationally licensed TPA, Careington also provides its partners and clients with administrative services, including claims processing and billing administration of fully-insured and self-insured dental plans.

With DialCare Teledentistry, members can virtually consult with dentists who assist with oral health problems, assess oral sores, lesions, swelling or infections, advise on orthodontia needs, broken, chipped, sensitive or misaligned teeth, gum swelling and bleeding, provide expert second opinions, treatment guidance and more.

DialCare has been offering telemedicine through its Physician Access and Mental Wellness programs for years, and is now bringing the same safety, convenience and affordability to dentistry. DialCare Teledentistry offers diagnostic and preventative services that help reduce dental costs by detecting conditions early and recommending treatment that can help members avoid major dental work.

"Careington strives to provide improved access to care to as many people as possible, and we are excited to extend this mission to teledentistry through DialCare," said CEO Barbara Fasola. "COVID-19 has intensified the need for teledentistry, and we are pleased to introduce the teledentistry program as a much-needed virtual solution for dental care."

DialCare Teledentistry is available to organizations and individual consumers. The teledentistry program is now included in the plan offerings on Careington.com.
