A few things you might ask.
How do restorative, recall, and follow-up notes differ?
Restorative notes bring together the tooth, surface, options discussed, and patient preferences. Recall notes organize the exam, home-care conversation, and next appointment. Follow-up notes capture patient updates, questions, and what happens next.
Can I keep my practice’s dental note structure?
Yes. Adapt a template to the sections your practice uses, from tooth and surface to visit findings, patient preferences, and next steps.
How do tooth numbers and surfaces fit into the note?
Include the tooth number and surface in your conversation or dictation. Vero keeps those details with the relevant part of the visit. The notes on this page use FDI numbering.
Can I prepare referrals and patient summaries?
Yes. Use the visit details to draft a referral letter, a treatment discussion summary, or a patient-friendly recap without starting from a blank page.
Can I edit the note before saving it?
Yes. Update the wording, add details, and adjust the structure in your draft so the finished note fits your visit and your workflow.
