Due to difficulty in capturing all dental emergencies and treatment encounters, only two significant studies have been published on the non-injury dental emergency rates of deployed US soldiers. MouthCAM would provide the assets needed to identify military personnel at the greatest risk dental for emergencies, as well as providing diagnostic accuracy needed to aid in the comparability of future dental emergency rate studies.
From the research that has been provided, studies have identified that soldiers experience a nonbattle related dental emergency at a rate of approximately 173 per 1,000 soldiers annually, with a greater incidence occurring in deployed reservists and those in the National Guard.
The most common dental emergencies were caused by dental caries, or cavities. The next most common occurrences in chipped teeth or fractured fillings. While some of these didn't have immediate pain associated with these incidences, the research shows that 25% of these turned into chronic pain and infections, waking the soldiers at night. Other occurrences included pericoronitis, an infection in the gingival around a tooth- usually wisdom teeth.
Having access to a MouthCAM camera and live remote consultations with a dental professional, either in our list of providers or a soldier's own personal trusted dentist from home, could not only prevent many of these occurrences, but also help to get a plan for treatment, resulting in immediate access for antibiotics, providing relief from active infections.
