In reply to the letter to the editor "Tele(oral)medicine: A new approach during the COVID-19 crisis"

Abstract

We report a case reflecting a suitable use of telemedicine in Oral Medicine. A general dental practitioner, working in a small Patagonian village (more than 1,000 km away from our institution), referred us a case using Instagram and WhatsApp. It was a 7-year-old female with chief complaint of spontaneous gingival bleeding, with no previous medical conditions.publishedVersionFil: Gilligan, Gerardo Marcelo.
