Abstract:

Nowadays, there is an increasing use of mobile phones as a part of telemedicine to aid in the management of various health conditions. There are numerous reports of using mobile phones as a tool for sending and receiving short text message (SMS) in medicine. Aside from keeping patients continuously in touch with their health care providers, mobile phones can also be a useful tool for providing doctors with valuable information. A useful adjunct of many mobile phones is its ability to take clinical pictures.

In this study we present a case series where mobile phone photos taken by the patient were later used to aid in the diagnosis and management of various maxillofacial conditions.
