DENTAL APPOINTMENT SOFTWARE
A review and a longer procedure need different amounts of time. Watson checks the service, eligible dentist and live schedule, then carries the booking into deposits, reminders and arrival.
The patient asks for Saturday. Your front desk still needs to check who offers the service, how long it needs and whether the dentist has enough time around the next patient. When those details sit in separate messages and calendars, even a simple change creates more work. Keep the booking rules and the conversation together.
HOW THE WORK CONNECTS
Use the practice’s service information to identify the appointment being requested. An enquiry that needs clinical assessment goes to your team.
Apply dentist availability, service duration, working hours, breaks and configured buffers before offering a slot.
Keep the agreed appointment and any configured deposit requirement together. The patient knows what is booked and what happens next.
Send the configured reminders, handle supported changes and bring the current appointment into the front desk’s arrival workflow.
BUILT FOR YOUR PRACTICE
Set the services each dentist offers and the hours they work. Durations, breaks and buffers make the difference between a slot that looks empty and one that fits. Changes to the schedule should be reflected before the next appointment is offered.
Use the timing your practice chooses rather than a universal reminder sequence. Keep confirmations and supported reschedule or cancellation replies connected to the booking, so staff can see the current arrangement without searching through a second list.
A released slot can return to the waitlist workflow. Suitability still matters: the requested service, dentist, date and time must fit. A person waiting for a longer appointment should not be promised a shorter gap simply because it is available.
BEFORE YOUR DEMO
Yes. Availability can be checked for an eligible dentist who offers the requested service. If that dentist is unavailable, the patient can consider another suitable time or the alternatives your practice allows.
Yes. Service duration is part of the availability check, alongside working hours and configured buffers. Use the appointment types and timings your practice has approved.
Yes. Reminder timing is configured for your practice. Review the booking channel, message and supported response handling together so patients receive a coherent confirmation and reminder experience.
The scheduling workflow described here checks dentist availability, appointment duration and configured capacity. Dedicated chair or equipment allocation is a separate requirement to review in your demo; it is not implied by a dentist’s calendar.
A configured deposit can be connected to a booking. Agree which services need one and the practice’s payment and cancellation rules. A booking deposit is separate from a dental treatment estimate or instalment agreement.
YOUR PRACTICE. YOUR WORKFLOW.
Bring a short appointment, a longer procedure and a last-minute change. See how the schedule holds together.
