This article is aimed to create a teledentistry applica-tion based on the appstore and playstore for dental practice during the Covid-19 pandemic. Implementation method includes conducting literature studies, requirements engineering, system design, system implementation anddrawing conclusions and suggestions. The result show tested functionality on application features is directly proportional to the expected result. It was concluded that the design of an android-based teledentistry application in dental practice can simplify the service process, help increase time effectiveness in the dental clinic service process, increase the efficiency of the recording system in dental clinic services quickly and accurately. And the design of this system canhelp minimize losses due to errors in recording patient data.
