Clove Dental launches Tele-dentistry offering free online dentist consultations, Emergency treatments available across India


Chandigarh : During the current countrywide lockdown, many still face dental pain, bleeding and discomfort. Toothache can be quite severe, and patients need solution. India’s largest dental health chain, Clove Dental, is now offering daily free-of-cost online and tele-consultations for dental need and several clinics are open for urgent treatments. Under a fresh initiative called “e-Dentist by Clove”, doctors from Clove Dental will be available to address any questions, provide guidance, and also help determine if treatments are urgent or can be postponed (with some interim measures) until after the lockdown.

 

With both video or telephonic interaction options made available, the consulting appointments can be booked through Clove’s Dental Health Line Centre at 1800 1200 3232. Once the query is registered, appointments are scheduled on either Zoom or Skype for video consultations besides need-based interactions over the call. The patients are also directed to the nearest possible clinic in case the issue remains unresolved due to complications. One can also find out more information about “e-Dentist by Clove” on the website, https://clovedental.in/.  

 

“In such times as this pandemic, where every person is worried about their life and scared beyond any normal behaviour; Oral Health takes a back seat and the damage to teeth is irreversible. “Hence, it is paramount that everyone seeks this unique “e-Dentist by Clove” to learn about precautions to maintain our teeth and gums healthy and also to cultivate healthy eating habits,” said Lt. Gen. (Retd.) Dr Vimal Arora, AVSM, Chief Clinical Officer of Clove Dental.

 

Dr Arora added further, “We must adopt a balanced diet which is not too heavy on both teeth and stomach. Regular exercise, drinking enough water and brushing your teeth twice a day for at least a few minutes is a must to stay oral fit. In addition, use of Inter-dental floss, intra dental brushes and use of Mouth Washes may be a great practice to inculcate. Since oral health determines your overall health, it must be ensured.”

 

In view of COVID-19 situation, most of the 350 Clove Dental clinics have temporarily suspended operations until 14th April, 2020, while several open as needed to provide urgent care to our patients. Clove Dental has, since inception 9 years ago, followed the highest hygiene and sterilization protocols. Recently, we have added even more rigid quality protocols, patient and staff screening, additional PPE (Personal Protective Equipment), and increased dental surgery fumigation protocols. Patient and Staff safety is one of Clove Dental’s core values since its founding in 2011.
