Ever since smartphones began taking the world by storm, it seems that there is a new app every day that either makes our day a little more amusing or more productive. Dental practices are naturally hectic and busy with back-to-back appointments. In order to make work more pleasant and the patients’ visits more enjoyable, here are 3 popular dentist apps.
3 Popular Dentist Apps
Dental Manager
Dental Manager is a mobile application for dentists that essentially works as a planner. With this dentist app, dentists can select a patient and add the relevant treatment plans to their file, along with costs. The application also allows you to send this information to patients via SMS or email, but you may also set up a phone call or print the plan. Dental Manager makes it easy to ensure you and your patients are on the same page at all times.
OrthoPhoto
For dentists that also do Invisalign, metal dental braces, or ceramic dental braces, OrthoPhoto is a great asset. It’s essentially a braces camera that allows dentists to take their patients’ clinical images, which document their braces process as they undergo their treatment. Rather than utilizing a specific dentist camera to take photos, upload them, crop them, load them into a slide show, and sort them into specific albums and files, OrthoPhoto App automates the process.
Using the smartphone app, you are able to take pictures of your patients’ braces progress. The application automatically places the images into a template that organizes them in the correct format (crop, size, order) and places them in the designated patient file to help you save time and become more efficient.
DDS GP
DDS GP is a great dentist app for educating patients in a more in-depth manner. This dental app illustrates how certain dental conditions may affect the patient over time. It also allows for a more customized educational experience by allowing dentists to draw on the images and save them so they can be moved to a specific patient’s file. Additionally, the app serves as a means for dentists to create and send (or print) customized treatment plans for patients.
Dentists Apps Help Dentists Make Patient Visits More Pleasant
As a dentist, by having multiple smartphone apps at your disposal, you can make visits all the more enjoyable for patients who prefer more education and understanding when it comes to their dental treatments. Since smartphones first emerged, more apps have too, and they are a great tool for doctor-patient communication.
