The 7th annual Teledentistry Innovation Awards, also known as the “Tellies,” is now accepting nominations for 2024’s ceremony. There are 5 categories that nominations can be submitted to including Dentists & Specialists, Hygienists, Oral Health Programs, Educational Institutions, and Industry Innovators. The Tellies aim to recognize individuals and organizations that implement virtual care and teledentistry in innovative ways, according to founder and CEO of MouthWatch and Dentistry One, Brant Herman.

“Tellie award winners have mastered the use of teledentistry to improve oral health,” Herman said in a press release. “We look forward to honoring these dental pioneers for their innovative role in driving the future of virtual care and the success of the teledentistry programs they have implemented to enhance patient engagement and expand reach into the communities they serve.”

2024 Tellie recipients will get a $1000 cash prize, an invitation to the annual Tellies Ceremony in New York City, New York, and a spotlight via a special feature story. Winners will be announced at the 2024 Greater New York Dental Meeting, which will take place from November 29 through December 4, 2024. Herman expressed excitement for this year’s Tellies in the press release.

“Every year the Tellie Awards become more exciting as the nominations reflect technology advances and the application of teledentistry for improved access to care and patient outcomes becomes more sophisticated–including the use of teledentistry to digitally bridge dental and medical care,” he said.
