Terms and Conditions

DentLink is a community service app that connects dental students with real patients who need dental treatment, making it easier to complete clinical requirements in an organised, safe way and under academic supervision. Our main focus is the dental student and everything that makes their work easier. We aim to reduce the effort students spend searching for suitable cases and to provide a professional experience that benefits both students and patients.

The app is a digital system that connects dental students with real patients who need treatment, through a single platform that makes searching for clinical cases, communicating and coordinating about them organised and efficient.

The system places great importance on privacy and data confidentiality. Patient information is kept fully confidential, and a patient's personal details are disclosed only to the student whose request to take on and treat the case has been accepted. This balances educational opportunities for students with the protection of patients' privacy.

Dental students looking for real clinical cases that allow them to complete the requirements of their academic courses and practical training. Many of them struggle to find suitable patients in time, which makes this app an effective way to simplify the search and organisation.

Individuals under 18 may not use the app. The system is limited to adult users who can legally provide their data and take responsibility for handling clinical cases. By registering, the user confirms that they are 18 or older.

If an account is found to belong to an underage user, the system administration may take the necessary measures, including suspending or deleting the account, to protect users and to comply with the applicable legal and ethical standards.
