HMS Core

Dental in the Bridge HMS Suite: Odontogram, treatment plans and dental procedure billing

Plans the patient accepts before you start

Treatment plans sequence the procedures with prices and the insurance split, go from draft to accepted with consent, and are tracked in progress to completed — billed as each step is done.

Crowns and dentures, tracked to the chair

Lab work sent with its shade and due date, returned and checked, inserted in the mouth — and every case in one list.

Chairs and the procedure catalogue

Chairs with their room, and a CDT-style procedure catalogue with prices and durations.
