Community Behavioral Health Announces Virtudent As Teledentistry Solution
August 12, 2020, BOSTON, MA – Virtudent, Inc. (virtudent.com), the leading provider of onsite and virtual teledentistry services for employers, announced that it has been chosen by Community Behavioral Health (CBH) to provide teledentistry services to CBH’s employees. With over 500 employees, CBH originally partnered with Virtudent to offer on-site preventive dental exams for employees.

“At CBH, we strive to offer excellent employee benefits. Partnering with Virtudent to provide teledentistry services through Virtudent Connect allows for greater access to dental services for employees that may have encountered challenges due to COVID-19-related constraints and concerns,” said Leslie Edwards, CBH’s Manager of Employee Benefits and Wellness Programs.
CBH is joining more than 250 companies in making Virtudent’s dental solutions more accessible and convenient for employees. Catherine Jonash, Virtudent’s Vice President of Customer Success, stated: “With all the changes that employees are facing amidst the COVID-19 crisis, it is exciting to see that organizations such as CBH are keeping overall employee health and wellness at the center. CBH is truly committed to making oral health resources accessible to its employees no matter where they are, and Virtudent is excited to be a partner in delivering high-quality care to those in need.”
