Step 5 (Planning for Treatments)
Computerized Appointment Sequencing
Here’s How It Works
1st
We spend upfront time with you to review and decide on your treatments goals. These treatments are then entered into our computer planning software.
2nd
The treatments are combined into groups. Then the treatment steps sequence to efficiently complete all treatments in a best care order.
3rd
Scheduling…. we now know how many visits, how much time per visit, and how much time is needed for healing in-between each visit for optimal recovery. The end result is, we now know the number of visits needed, estimated time per visit, estimated appointment dates & times, and overall time needed to complete all treatments.
Patient Benefits
Grouped procedures means fewer appointment and less trips to the dentist
Grouped pre-planned treatment appointments save time away from work and make it possible for our out of town patients plan their visits to Chicago.
Grouping procedures saves you pain. Here’s how, with one doctor for all treatments, you can have several treatments completed during one appointment with only one numbing session. End result, fewer dental appointments and fewer numbing sessions.
One Doctor for All Treatments Needs
No disruption in treatments
No trips to another office to see a specialist
And…No trips to another office because our office has advanced diagnostics for your safety before, during, and after treatments.
