Every case, every stage, one timeline
From records appointment to retention, each case moves through a visible pipeline. Visits record wires, ties, and notes; timelines show progress against the estimate; overdue patients surface themselves.
Pipeline stages that match your practice
Records → proposal → banding or aligner delivery → active treatment → debond → retention. Stages stamp automatically from appointment activity.
Per-visit clinical detail
Archwires, ties, progress notes, and next-visit plans recorded at every treatment appointment — structured, not buried in free text.
Treatment timeline
A visual timeline from start to estimated completion, with every visit marked. Treatment visits count separately from records and hygiene.
Overdue flags
Patients past your recall interval — treatment or hygiene — are flagged on the patient list automatically.
Progress is easiest to show, not tell: side-by-side photo comparison sits in the same record, and practices on Open Dental can sync appointments automatically.
Frequently asked questions
What does orthodontic treatment tracking software do?
It follows each case through the stages of treatment — records, proposal, acceptance, banding or initial aligner delivery, active treatment visits, debond, and retention — so the practice always knows where every patient stands. Each visit records clinical detail like archwires, ties, and progress notes against the same case record.
Can it track wires and ties at each visit?
Yes. Each treatment visit records the upper and lower archwire and tie configuration, so the next provider to open the chart sees exactly what was placed last visit without digging through free-text notes.
How does the treatment timeline work?
The timeline visualizes the case from treatment start toward the estimated completion date from the accepted proposal, with each visit marked along the way. Treatment visits are counted separately from records or hygiene appointments, so the visit count reflects actual treatment progress.
Does it flag patients who are overdue?
Yes. Patients with no upcoming appointment past your practice's interval thresholds are flagged as overdue — including a separate hygiene-overdue flag — so recall slips are visible on the patient list instead of discovered months later.
Do case stages advance automatically?
Key transitions stamp themselves from appointment activity — a banding appointment sets the bracketing date, a deband appointment sets the retention date — and the case status recalculates so the pipeline stays accurate without manual bookkeeping.
