Bahasa Abstract

Selama pandemi COVID-19, banyak pasien yang enggan untuk berkunjung ke rumah sakit karena takut tertular penyakit COVID-19, termasuk diantaranya adalah pasien gigi dan mulut. Hal ini tentu saja menyebabkan penurunan jumlah kunjungan pasien di poliklinik gigi dan mulut. Pihak manajemen rumah sakit harus memiliki strategi marketing yang tepat agar kondisi ini tidak mempengaruhi pendapatan maupun kesinambungan proses di rumah sakit. Salah satu konsep pengobatan gigi dan mulut yang dapat menjadi pilihan dalam era pandemi COVID-19 ini adalah teledentistri. Desain studi penelitian ini adalah sistematik review yang mencari hubungan antara pasien gigi dan COVID-19 dan teledentistri dan marketing strategi. Hasil penelitian ini menemukan bahwa teledentistri sebagai salah satu inovasi, dapat diimplementasikan dengan baik dalam pengobatan gigi dan mulut di era pandemi COVID-19. Teledentistri berdampak pada efisiensi dan peningkatan akses pelayanan pasien gigi dan mulut. Dimasa yang akan datang diharapkan pemerintah dapat membuat regulasi terkait pelayanan teledentistri, baik sebagai payung hukum maupun acuan dalam pelaksanaannya oleh rumah sakit di Indonesia.
