Abstract

Blockchain technology and the metaverse have the potential to revolutionize dentistry and healthcare by enhancing data security, patient empowerment, disaster victim identification, and the delivery of dental services. In this review, we discuss the current state of the art in the field of dentistry and the future of dentistry, highlighting the advantages and challenges of utilizing blockchain technology for disaster victims’ identification. Blockchain's applications in Disaster Victim Identification (DVI) offer a humanitarian dimension, helping bring solace to families in times of tragedy. Moreover, blockchain's potential to establish virtual health clinics and telemedicine platforms could bridge healthcare gaps in underserved regions.
