The orthodontist's daily battle

Consultation no-shows costing $400-$800 per missed appointment in lost treatment revenue
Treatment plan follow-ups relying on staff memory with no systematic process
Patients abandoning treatment mid-way through due to poor communication and engagement
Insurance coordination scattered across phone calls, emails, and paper fax records
Parents of teenage patients texting the wrong number with questions and concerns
No system for tracking referral sources or rewarding referring general dentists

Orthodontic Practice FAQ

How does Dewx reduce no-shows for orthodontic consultations?

Dewx sends automated appointment reminders via WhatsApp or text at 48 hours and 2 hours before each appointment. Patients and parents can confirm with a single reply. No-show rates drop significantly because reminders go through channels people actually check, not just voicemail.

Can Dewx follow up with consultation leads who didn't start treatment?

Yes. When a patient completes a consultation but doesn't sign a treatment plan, Dewx tracks them in your pipeline. Dew AI follows up after 1 week, 1 month, and 3 months with personalized messages, bringing back patients who just needed more time to decide.

How does Dewx handle communication with parents of orthodontic patients?

Dewx lets you manage separate contact profiles for the patient and parent. Send appointment reminders to the parent's number, treatment updates to the teen's WhatsApp, and billing to the responsible party email. Everyone gets the right communication through their preferred channel.

Can Dewx track referrals from general dentists?

Absolutely. Log each referring dentist in Dewx, track how many patients they've sent, and automatically send thank-you notes after referred patients start treatment. Referral relationships that feel appreciated send more patients consistently.

Is Dewx suitable for multi-location orthodontic practices?

Yes. Dewx supports multiple practice locations with shared patient records, location-specific scheduling, and team inboxes. Patients who visit different offices are recognized, and your front desk can see the full picture regardless of which location they're working from.
