WHAT IT DOES

Your front desk should not be the bottleneck for every arrival.

When every patient has to wait for a staff member to check them in, the front desk becomes a traffic jam. Staff are pulled away from phones, insurance verification, and payments just to log an arrival or hand over a clipboard, and patients sit wondering if anyone has noticed them. Flex's Self Check-In Kiosk lets patients check themselves in by entering their name and date of birth, using an in-office tablet or a QR code they scan from their own phone.

If they have not already completed their digital paperwork, they are prompted to finish it while they wait, and they can check in other family members with appointments in the same visit. The kiosk connects directly to your Open Dental workflow, updating appointment status in real time and placing the patient in the Open Dental Waiting Room, so your team always knows who has arrived and who is ready to be seen.

HOW IT WORKS

Flex puts check-in in the patient’s hands.

  1. Patients check in on their terms

    Patients enter their name and date of birth on an in-office tablet or scan a QR code from a framed sign to check in from their own phone.

  2. Any remaining paperwork is completed on the spot

    Patients who have not already completed forms sent through Flex’s reminder and confirmation automation are prompted to finish new patient forms or health history updates while they wait.

  3. Open Dental updates automatically

    The kiosk updates appointment status in real time and places the patient in the Open Dental Waiting Room, so your team knows the moment someone has arrived.

WHAT’S INSIDE SELF CHECK-IN KIOSK

A check-in experience that runs itself.

Family-friendly check-in

Patients can check in themselves and other family members scheduled together in one session.

Flexible deployment

Choose an office tablet, a static QR code for mobile check-in, or both, depending on your space and workflow.

Custom branding

Add your logo and brand colors so the kiosk feels like a natural part of your practice.

WHY FLEX

Built exclusively for Open Dental. That's not a feature — it's the foundation.

Deeper than any integration

Flex doesn't connect to Open Dental — it works alongside it. Every action syncs automatically. Nothing to export, import, or manually update.

Built by people who use Open Dental

Flex was founded by a practicing dentist who ran her own Open Dental practice. Every feature was built to solve a real problem she lived.
