Why Senzii for dental
From chair assignment to recall tracking, Senzii handles the scheduling complexity so your front desk can focus on patients.
Assign chairs to dentists and hygienists based on procedure type and estimated duration. Prevent double-booking with automatic conflict detection. Set buffer times between procedures.
Create custom duration templates for cleanings (30 min), fillings (45 min), root canals (90 min), extractions (60 min), and bracket placements (75 min). Slots auto-adjust to procedure type.
Rotate hygienists across chairs fairly. Senzii tracks who's been in which chair, balances patient load, and ensures no hygienist is overworked or underutilized.
Track 3-month, 6-month, or custom recall intervals. Senzii automatically flags patients due for cleaning and suggests available slots. Send batch recall reminders via SMS or email.
Reserve emergency time blocks throughout the day. When a patient calls with an urgent issue, instantly see available emergency slots and reshuffle non-urgent appointments.
Manage schedules for multiple dentists, specialists, and hygienists in one view. See who's available, who's double-booked, and who has gaps to fill — all on one dashboard.
Reduce no-shows with automatic SMS and email reminders. Configure reminder timing (24 hours, 2 hours, or custom). Patients can confirm or reschedule with one click.
Schedule insurance verification calls before appointments. Senzii flags patients whose insurance needs re-verification and assigns the task to front desk staff.
Automatically schedule lunch breaks for hygienists and front desk staff. Senzii ensures chairs aren't left unattended during peak hours and breaks are distributed fairly.
Built for every dental setting
Senzii adapts to your practice type, whether you run a single-chair office or a multi-location dental group.
Schedule cleanings, fillings, crowns, and checkups. Manage 2-4 chairs with one or two dentists and rotating hygienists. Recall tracking keeps your hygiene schedule full.
Handle adjustment visits (15-20 min), bracket placements (60-90 min), and follow-up checks. Senzii blocks appropriate time per procedure and manages multi-month treatment timelines.
Schedule extractions, wisdom teeth removal, and implant procedures. Long-duration slots with recovery time buffers. Assistant assignments and equipment tracking included.
Shorter appointment slots for children, behavior management time buffers, and sedation scheduling with required staff assignments. Parent reminders with pre-visit instructions.
Coordinate dentists who work across multiple offices. Senzii tracks which dentist is at which location on which days and prevents travel-time conflicts between locations.
Specialized procedure scheduling for gum treatments, root canals, and surgical interventions. Complex multi-visit treatment plans with automated follow-up scheduling.
