Product Profile: Ortho2

Ortho2’s Edge Cloud will soon include pediatric dentistry software! In addition to the clinicians’ orthodontic needs, Edge Specialist will include their pediatric dentistry needs—everything from an expanded tooth chart, to scheduler needs and even updated financials and insurance.

Scheduler
Edge Specialist will be fully integrated into the Scheduler so users can see and/or filter their schedules by specialty. They can search for an appointment based on specialty in the Smart Scheduler. The Smart Scheduler will also allow users to create procedure groups to include multiple family members and contain more than one specialty. In addition, an appointment can include multiple procedures from the same or different specialties.

Treatment chart and tooth chart
The treatment chart will include an area to take notes about planned procedures and a place to view or alter billing codes and fees. Once a procedure is marked complete, the fee will be auto-posted to the responsible party, and insurance billed appropriately.

The tooth chart has an easy-access list of procedures so users can quickly add an item to a tooth as a planned procedure. The procedures are listed in a tree view format, which can be searched and sorted into favorites. Procedures can be classified by surface, whole tooth or whole mouth. In addition, the pediatric dentistry tooth chart will have an icon to indicate if X-rays of specific teeth are available to view.

Financials and insurance
With Edge Specialist, financials and insurance can be completely separated or all-inclusive—whatever fits the clinician’s office best. Don’t worry about insurance claims as they will be created automatically for dental procedures. With Edge Specialist, detailed insurance information is tracked, including plan maximums and coverage amount for each procedure.

New animations
Several child-friendly animations will be added to Ortho2’s suite of Edge Animations. These videos teach children how to properly floss and brush, the importance of keeping their teeth clean and other information regarding their oral health.

Edge Specialist allows Ortho2 to build on its already solid platform for its orthodontic partners and eliminates the need for multiple programs and duplicate data entry.
