Set your note defaults

Who can do this: Anyone who can write clinical notes: Doctors, Hygienists, Back Office, Office Managers and Owners.

Available if your plan includes NixDent Notes.

Go to Notes → Settings. The page is called Notes Settings. These settings are your own: each person sets theirs.

Notes Settings on the Provider Details tab, with test names for the doctor, hygienist and assistant

Provider names

Section titled “Provider names”

On the Provider Details tab, fill in Doctor / Dentist, Hygienist and Assistant, then click Save Provider Details.

These names go into every new note NixDent drafts, for example “Doctor: Dr. Sarah Patel”.

Your materials and protocols

Section titled “Your materials and protocols”

On the Dentist Preferences tab, list the materials and protocols you use, grouped by procedure. The page shows a Format example to follow, like this:

COMPOSITE:
Bonding: (your bonding agent), 2 coats


ANESTHETIC (all procedures):
Primary: (your usual anesthetic)

Click Save Preferences. NixDent uses the matching section when it drafts a note, even if the product isn’t mentioned out loud. As always, check the drafted note before you finalize it.
