Summary

AI-generated summary — verify against full text

The ORTHO Act directs the Federal Trade Commission to establish regulations requiring dentists to conduct in-person examinations before providing most dental services through teledentistry. Exceptions allow teledentistry-only relationships for emergent care, public health programs, and initial orthodontic diagnoses (which must be confirmed by in-person visit). The FTC would enforce violations as unfair or deceptive practices, and states may bring civil actions on behalf of residents with statutory damages of $1,000 per violation, up to treble damages for willful violations.
