Online Scheduling is part of the Engagement Module. If you're interested in learning more, CLICK HERE to request a demo!

Dental Intelligence provides you with an Online Appointment Request link that can be accessed in your Settings. This link can be sent out to patients and allows them to request an appointment for your available times according to your practice management software. It will not schedule that patient until the request is approved.

We recommend starting your Online Scheduling journey by watching our webinar! We'll show you how to leverage Online Scheduling in Dental Intelligence to increase the number of visits in your practice.
