Set up the clinic calendar
Configure branches, working hours, doctors, chairs and services before taking bookings. The calendar depends on those availability settings.
Dental appointment scheduling software for doctors and chairs
Give reception and clinicians a shared view of the day without relying on a separate paper diary.
How the workflow fits your clinic
Book with patient context
Find the patient and choose the appropriate booking details. Review doctor and chair availability rather than relying on memory.
Manage changes visibly
Reschedule or cancel through the supported appointment workflow so the calendar reflects the change and staff know the next step.
Keep the visit moving
Use appointment status to coordinate arrivals and the clinic’s queue. Staff still make clinical and operational decisions.
What to check in your demo
- Try a conflicting doctor or chair booking in the demo.
- Move a booking and check both the calendar and enabled messages.
- Review branch and staff permissions with your actual team structure.
Setup and practical limits
Availability, permissions and clinic settings determine the options shown. Appointment volume and team limits vary by plan. A scheduling tool cannot promise full chair utilization or eliminate no-shows.
Check your clinic’s active plan, role permissions and settings before enabling a workflow.

How does this differ from reminders?
Scheduling manages the appointment itself: availability, time, doctor, chair and status. Reminders communicate about that booking and depend on separate messaging settings.
Can a growing clinic use one shared workflow?
Dentiva supports doctor, staff and branch access within the selected plan and permissions. Demonstrate your team’s handoffs before deciding which plan fits.
