Did you know that about 60-90% of school children worldwide and 100% of adults have dental cavities? 15-20% of middle-aged (35-44 years) adults also have severe periodontal (gum) disease, which if not well handled could lead to loss of tooth.

This mind boggling revelation was made by the highly respected World Health Organization (WHO). It also revealed that about 30% of people aged 65-74 lack natural teeth. That's something that should attract our attention.

According to the WHO's report, there are several reasons why people develop oral diseases; they include high fluoride in the oral cavity, tobacco use, unhealthy diet, poor oral hygiene, harmful use of alcohol, etc.

Well, Dentacoin is set to see that there's an improvement in this statistics by launching a blockchain which should bring the patients and dentists into communities, to make them work together for the purpose of improving worldwide dental care and making it affordable.

The Dentacoin Token Sales is scheduled to commence on October 1, 2017 at 2pm GMT. Already, over twenty thousand (20,000) persons have showed their interest in it.

Why Industry-Specific Blockchain Solution is Needed

Apart from the result of the research carried out by the WHO, a research conducted by the Academy of General Dentistry, reveals "that over 90% of all systemic diseases have oral manifestations."

Other facts include that patients are not prevention-oriented, even as they are not taking adequate care of their teeth. Besides, high cost of dental treatments has made it impossible for 80% of the world's population to have access to high quality dental treatment.

Dentacoin comes up with a concept to help improve this appalling state of the dental industry. The objective is to make it possible for patients and dentists to share medical and economic responsibilities while the dental health of the individuals is being taken proper care of.

The Blockchain technology is the lone way to make sure that data security is automated, protected from counterfeit, and achieve low cost. It is equally the only way to add a currency system at an affordable price and with the highest level of security and make them free from interference from authorities and banks. The technology makes it possible for the people to have power back in their hands.

Concept of Value Generation

In an attempt to solve the greatest problem facing the industry, Dentacoin employs the "value-generating" distribution model. They will develop several Blockchain-based tools where users will be compensated with Dentacoin tokens for contributing to the Foundation's mission. About 40% of the total Dentacoin supply will be used to develop more tools.

The pilot project of Dentacoin: the Trusted Review platform which has been developed as the first Blockchain-based, tamper-proof and transparent platform where dental treatment should be reviewed is one of the value-generating tools.

The tool is already working on Ethereum's major network and has more than 500 registered users and over 80 dental practices. An aftercare mobile app which is to work in helping to pull knowledge and act as a market research platform for gathering important market research data from patients would soon come on stream.

They also seek to develop a "Hippocratic" dental insurance that would ensure that patients prevent dental problems and no longer pay for treatments. This would give patients full-covered dental care with very low, monthly rates, which would last for a lifetime. This would be paid in DCN, which would at the same time assure dentists of regular monthly income.

The system targets over 600 million users globally which would be brought together into co-working communities thereby creating value for the entire industry.

The Upcoming Dentacoin Token Sale

The official token sale kicks off on 1st October 2017, at 2pm GMT. Dentacoin has already had it first product launched before the ICO. It is accepted as means of payment at partner clinics in Europe and tradable on five exchange platforms. Up to twenty thousand (20,000) persons have already claimed their interest in the forthcoming token sale.

You can take advantage of this to position yourself for proper dental care or to make money as a cryptocurrency holder. The concept of Dentacoin is great and all things being equal, they are likely to get a lot of people to subscribe to the idea. Do not let this opportunity pass you by.
