Why DentalCanvas

You already chose Open Dental. DentalCanvas makes more of it usable.

You should not have to replace your PMS to get closed-loop office communication, patient-flow workflows, explainable A/R, focused claims work, call follow-up, payroll calculations, and practice analytics around the data already in Open Dental.

From data to owned work

A prettier dashboard is not enough.

DentalCanvas does not stop at showing that someone is waiting. It routes the request, shows who accepted, tracks arrival, and closes the loop.

  • Open Dental remains the source of record

    DentalCanvas is built around supported read-only workflows instead of asking the practice to migrate to another PMS.

  • The output is work, not another report

    Calls, claims, schedule gaps, requests, balances, compensation, and patient flow are organized around what the team can do next.

  • Patient-data workflows stay close to the practice

    The architecture is designed around local processing of supported Open Dental patient data rather than a DentalCanvas-hosted patient database.

  • The numbers should be explainable

    Core financial and payroll views preserve the distinctions and inputs that matter instead of hiding them behind one total.

Explainable money

One A/R total should not hide three different jobs.

Separate patient responsibility, insurance money, aging, and credits so the owner sees what each number means and the team sees what to work.
