An empty chair on a crown or RCT slot costs real money.
Patients book the right treatment slot online, get a WhatsApp confirmation, and a reminder before they’re due — so long procedures and six-month recalls actually turn up.

Six-month recalls are the backbone of a healthy book, but they’re easy to lose track of. Rebook the next visit before the patient leaves and let reminders carry it.
Reception can’t answer the phone and greet patients at once. A shareable booking link lets patients book themselves 24/7, freeing your team for the chairside.
Give each treatment its own duration — a 20-minute check-up, a 60-minute RCT sitting — so patients only see slots that fit.
Add the link to your Google profile and WhatsApp, and put the QR at reception for walk-ins booking their next visit.
WhatsApp and email confirmations for every booking, reminders before each visit, and recalls rebooked in seconds from the patient’s history.
On Pro and Business plans, confirmations and reminders go out automatically on WhatsApp and email — where your patients will actually see them.
Give every procedure its own duration and buffer, so a quick scaling and a long crown fitting are each booked into the right amount of chair time.
Add associate dentists and hygienists with role-based access and assign each appointment to the right person and chair, with conflict detection built in.
Book the next check-up in seconds from the patient’s history, and let automated reminders bring them back on time.

A dental practice lives and dies by its appointment book. Between root canals, cleanings, orthodontic reviews, and emergency toothaches, your front desk juggles a constant stream of calls while patients sit in the chair. PracticeOak is appointment booking software for dentists that moves scheduling online, so patients can book, reschedule, and confirm themselves — and your team can stay focused on chairside care instead of the phone.
Dental treatments vary widely in length, and PracticeOak lets you model that precisely. Define each treatment as its own service with its own duration — a 20-minute scaling, a 45-minute filling, a 90-minute crown fitting — so patients only ever see slots that actually fit the work. If you run more than one chair or more than one dentist, assign each appointment to the right operatory and clinician so two patients never land in the same slot.
Because dentistry runs on recall, reminders matter more here than almost anywhere. PracticeOak sends booking confirmations and appointment reminders automatically over WhatsApp and email, so patients who booked a cleaning months ago actually turn up — and the six-month check-up that keeps your chairs full doesn’t get forgotten.
Yes. PracticeOak’s Free plan is free forever with up to 30 appointments a month, one service, and your own booking page — enough for a solo dentist to get started. You can upgrade as your practice grows.
On the Pro and Business plans, patients automatically receive booking confirmations and appointment reminders on WhatsApp and email. Timely WhatsApp reminders are one of the most effective ways to cut no-shows on high-value treatment slots.
Yes. Each treatment is its own service with its own duration and optional buffer time, so a 20-minute cleaning and a 90-minute crown fitting are booked into exactly the right amount of chair time.
Yes. Paid plans include staff seats (1 on Starter, 3 on Pro, 10 on Business), so you can add associate dentists and hygienists and assign each appointment to the right clinician.
Yes, on Starter and above you can ask for a booking fee. Patients pay it with any UPI app straight to your own UPI ID, with no commission, and reception marks it paid. Card checkout through a payment gateway is not available yet.
Free forever plan. 14-day Pro trial with WhatsApp reminders. No credit card required.
