Smartfill
Automatically offers last-minute openings to patients who asked for an earlier appointment, so cancellations don’t stay empty.
FlexSchedule lets patients book online and on mobile, in real time, against your actual Open Dental schedule — no double entry, no phone tag, no gaps left to chance.
WHAT IT DOES
FlexSchedule gives patients a simple way to book and reschedule online or from their phone, while your team keeps full control of the calendar. Every booking flows directly into Open Dental, and every change in Open Dental updates what patients see.
It includes settings like Smartfill for filling last-minute gaps, FlexNudge for steering patients toward your preferred times, and credit card holds at booking to cut down on no-shows.
HOW IT WORKS
Patients book against live availability
FlexSchedule reads your real Open Dental schedule, so patients only see and select times that are actually open.
The appointment writes to Open Dental
Each booking is created directly in Open Dental — no front-desk re-entry and no risk of double-booking.
Changes stay in sync both ways
Reschedules and cancellations update everywhere automatically, and Smartfill can offer the freed slot to patients waiting for an earlier time.
