Dentrix Ideas

More than 20 codes attached to an appointment

Please increase the number of dental codes that can be attached to 1 appointment. We are a surgical facility and 1 patient could have between surgery and sedation up to 40+ codes. At this time we have to add multiple appointments just to attach all the codes to post to patient ledger. Dentrix is used not just for general dentistry but also surgical. Alternative, is to allow multi codes to attach an appointment which can help decrease the number of codes based on patient's procedure.

    I completely agree! I am a restorative dentist and if I am restoring an entire arch, I have to post Provisional crowns for sometimes 18 teeth, and the permanent crowns for the same 18 teeth, along with "Prep & Temp" procedures that I have created for the purposes of scheduling... all to a single appointment. Without being able to attach all the necessary procedures to the appointment, I have to rely on my Front Desk to manually set all the appropriate procedures complete and that's a recipe for lots of mistakes! Or, I have to manually set all these procedures complete myself and that's pretty much in contradiction to what Dentrix is designed for: to streamline practice management.
