Abstract
OBJECTIVE: to create a complementary digital tool for remote health care and teaching in Dentistry. METHOD: a mobile application prototype combining m-health and m-learning was developed, using free resources. RESULT: the prototype has three different profiles related to oral health: Dentist, Professor Dentist and Student. With the prototype, it is possible for the Dentist to exchange information with patients via Whatsapp and save information in electronic medical records. Also, the prototype allows the Professor Dentist to develop clinical scenarios, make them available for assistance simulations to the Student profile, and evaluate the resulting interactions later. CONCLUSION: technology is an important part of our daily lives and improves information and communication. Despite the advantages, its use is still challenging due to limited technological knowledge, in addition to the precariousness of the Internet connection in a general way.
