[A New Perspective in Dentistry: Teledentistry in the 21st Century]

GULYÁS Judit, KIS-GYÖRGY Rita

[Technical progress in the modern age is rapidly expanding in the fields of health and medicine. Telemedicine is taking off, and global digitalisation is opening up new horizons in all segments of healthcare. Telemedicine has been evolving for decades and can provide a relevant toolkit for preventive and curative care, patient monitoring, and interactions between professionals. Its role is essential for the prevention and better management of common dental diseases. However, in addition to its many advantages, it also has limitations that challenge both professionals and patients visiting the care system.]

[The Importance of Dental Prevention for Our Health]

KOVÁCS Noémi, NÉMETH Anikó

[In Hungary, people’s oral hygiene is very poor and signs of this can be seen from a very young age. The development of good oral hygiene habits should start after birth and be maintained throughout life in order to prevent the development of oral diseases. However, the consequences of poor oral hygiene are not only visible in the oral cavity, but can also have a detrimental effect on the whole organ system, leading to the development of serious diseases. To prevent these, health professionals at all levels of health care need to take preventive action.]

[Effects of Illegal Drugs on Oral Health]

HALÁSZ Henrietta , NÉMETH Anikó

[Drug use is still on the rise today, with designer drugs being particularly dangerous. In addition to the general effects on the body, we must also mention the negative effects on the oral cavity. Many people do not realise that oral health can also be at risk, although oral lesions can develop as a result of poor oral hygiene, infections or neurological symptoms caused by the way in which the drug is used, or even by the way in which it is taken. In addition to dental caries, it is important to mention oral infections, tooth wear, or even Kaposi’s sarcoma due to possible HIV infection. Recognition of these oral lesions and of illegal drug use is not only a task for dental professionals, but also for the whole health care system.]
