Dental Clinic Scheduling: Hygiene vs Consult Slots

Service durations, chair time, and reminder patterns that fit dental workflows.

Dental chairs have different times for scaling, RCT consults, and follow-up checks. Define services with accurate durations in CareDesk so public slots never promise 15 minutes for a 45-minute procedure.

Block time for procedures

Use doctor blocked times for lab days, hospital rounds, or lunch. Blocked windows disappear from booking automatically — reception does not have to remember to say “no slots”.
