A Decade of innovation and transformation with Dentally

As we embark on our journey into the next decade of revolutionising the future in practice, it's fitting to reflect on the evolution of Dentally and the profound impact it has had for dental practice across the globe.

Over the years, Dentally has not only adapted to meet the changing needs of dental professionals but has also pioneered features that have helped redefine the landscape of your dental software.

Before and after: A visual journey of transformation

Let's take a stroll down memory lane and witness the transformation of Dentally's key features over time. From its humble beginnings to the sophisticated platform, it is today.

The Patient record and Chart

The evolution of Dentally's patient record and chart screen has been transformative for the way dental professionals handle their time in practice. These advancements have introduced ways to speed up your charting experience and streamline the workflows for both reception and surgery users.

The chart screen has seen some our best enhancements over the past 10 years, practitioners have access to multiple tools that make charting and record-keeping more efficient than ever before! Tools such as condensed charting, hover charting and the updated treatment list have ensured ease of use for practitioners resulting in a streamlined surgery experience for the patient.

The patient details screen itself has also seen some interesting updates over the years, most importantly the introduction of marketing consent to ensure practices can meet GDPR expectations.

Additionally, the new patient details screen has ensured an easier view for reception users to navigate. By prioritising the needs of our customers, with thoughts and suggestions gathered through Beta testers and feedback surveys, we have been able to continually refine our software, empowering you to provide the highest level of care possible.

Dentally Portal

Dentally Portal’s evolution has played a pivotal role in redefining the online presence of dental professionals. The redesign journey revolutionised the user experience, introducing a sleek, user-friendly interface with intuitive navigation in the Dentally Portal patient view.  

With a simplified booking workflow and greater visibility into available appointments, you can offer a hassle-free booking experience for your patients, ultimately boosting practice efficiency and patient satisfaction. 

The patient portal side of Dentally Portal has also seen some big development improvements since its release. Paying for outstanding balances and appointment deposits now supports multiple payment methods such as Google and Apple Pay, and our online forms now use a more advanced click through layout to ensure patients do not miss any important information.

With a focus on simplicity and functionality, the new dashboard provides administrators with centralised access to essential tools and reporting. Offering unparalleled flexibility when it comes to managing your availability online.

We made sure to include ways for you to customise your brand identity, manage your practitioners and easily set up your preferences when it comes to what information you are collecting from your patients. So, whether you are overseeing one practice or multiple locations, you can customise your online booking and signing system with just a few clicks.

Your Dashboard

Throughout the last decade, our mission has been to provide you with software that evolves proactively, aligning with the future of dentistry and aiding in the advancement of your practice. Along the way, we've implemented several user interface enhancements to the homepage of Dentally itself, aimed at simplifying your Dentally experience while also shaping our brand identity.

The thought process behind our redesigns are always guided by extensive user feedback and research. By working closely with dental practices through our Beta program, our developers gain invaluable insights into the needs and preferences of our users.

This iterative approach ensures that Dentally remains at the forefront of innovation, continuously evolving to meet the growing needs and demands of the dental industry.
