Dental health is suffering on a global level:
“Sick care” is the crisis of the 21st century in many so called “developed” countries.
More than 80% of people around the world have no access to dental care.
Dentacoin offers a global solution to this global pain.
Dentacoin Foundation is the organization that developed the first Blockchain solution for the global dental industry. It was founded in March 2017 in Maastricht, Netherlands.
Through its cryptocurrency (DCN) and a set of incentivized software tools, the Foundation has managed to create a new dental ecosystem which favours all industry stakeholders: patients, dentists, manufacturers, suppliers, labs, insurance companies.
The core purpose of the Foundation is to improve long-term health, reduce costs and pain, and continuously support the growth in the value of DCN.
The Blockchain-based software tools developed by the Dentacoin Foundation are a means of distributing DCN cryptocurrency to the key end users (i.e. patients, dentists, manufacturers). In return for writing reviews about their dentist (Trusted Reviews Platform), taking dental surveys (DentaVox), and maintaining excellent oral hygiene (Dentacare Mobile dApp), they receive different amounts of DCN.
Thus, people within the Dentacoin Ecosystem are encouraged to contribute to the improvement of dental care both on a personal and global level. The Foundation has already developed the first dental assurance regulated by smart contracts, directly concluded between dentists and patients. Dentacoin Assurance entitles patients to life-long preventive care against affordable monthly fees paid in DCN, while dentists receive regular income and build solid patient relations.
The next milestone on Dentacoin's roadmap is the development of another Blockchain-based application - a secure, patient-managed Health Database.
Dentacare- Health Training is a mobile app that aims to foster long-lasting dental care habits through a 3-month incentivised training program. By means of reminders, notifications, voice navigation and tutorials, users are taught how to improve their dental hygiene and thus, form healthy oral hygiene habits for the long-haul.
Patients can challenge themselves, their friends, family, children and peers by linking accounts and keeping track of how well they perform, as well as how committed they are via statistics and achievements. Commitment is rewarded in the form of Dentacoins (DCN) - the first and only digital asset, tailor-made for the dental industry.
