Welcome to the Dentalemon guide

Dentalemon is a dental clinic app built for the iPad. The tooth chart is at the centre of every visit: you chart, plan, bill and book in one place.

This guide walks you through the everyday tasks, one page per task, with a picture of every step.

Your first day

Do these in order. Each one takes a few minutes, and together they get you from a new account to your first paid visit.

Set up the clinic (once)

1. Create your account and name your clinic.
2. Add your clinic's address and opening hours: Settings basics › Your clinic and opening hours. Appointments can only be booked inside these hours.
3. Check your price list: Settings basics › Your price list. These prices are used for every charge and estimate.
4. Choose the payment methods you accept, and your tax registration: Settings basics › Payments and tax.
5. Add your PTR and S2 numbers and your signature to your profile, so they print on prescriptions: Settings basics › Your licence numbers and signature.

See your first patient

1. Add the patient, including any allergies.
2. Start an encounter, the record of today's visit.
3. Chart the teeth and plan the treatment.
4. Write notes, prescribe and order as needed.
5. Finish the visit and send the bill to the Cashier. The bill opens there, ready to collect.
6. Take the payment.
7. Book the next appointment.

• Steps are numbered. Do them in order.
• You should see boxes tell you what the screen looks like when a step worked.
• Tap any picture to see it full size.
• New words are explained in Words and answers.

About the pictures

Every patient, phone number and ID in the pictures is made up for this guide. The screens were taken on an iPad-sized screen in landscape, so yours may look slightly different on a phone or in portrait.

What Dentalemon can't do yet

We'd rather tell you now than have you look for it:

• Insurance claims are tracked by hand. You mark a claim submitted or paid yourself. Dentalemon doesn't send claims to PhilHealth or HMOs.
• Sending an invoice or receipt isn't available yet: Send receipt is marked Coming soon. Print it instead.
• Orders: you can add lab and imaging orders. Other order types can be read on older visits but not created.
• Finished records stay final. Undoing End encounter, or reopening a visit, doesn't unlock records that were already finalized. Use Amend… to correct one.
• Users and Access in Settings is a preview. It doesn't yet change who can sign in or what they can do.
