DSO PMS INTEGRATION READINESS

Know what your PMS can safely support before AI books

DentDesk helps dental groups separate calendar visibility, writeback, patient lookup, and fallback handoff before expanding AI receptionist workflows.

READINESS CHECKS

PMS readiness is an operations decision, not just an API decision

AI receptionist booking should expand only after the group agrees what each PMS can read, write, and hand off safely.

01

PMS mix

Identify which locations use Dentrix, Open Dental, Eaglesoft, or another PMS and whether they share one instance.

02

Permission level

Separate calendar read, patient lookup, appointment writeback, notes, and cancellation or reschedule scope.

03

Booking rules

Define appointment types, provider constraints, location rules, and when staff review is required.

04

Fallback mode

Keep answering and handoff active even when direct writeback is not enabled.

WORKFLOW SCOPE

Do not treat PMS integration as one switch

Availability read
Confirm safe calendar visibility and location mapping.
Patient lookup
Validate matching rules and avoid unsupported identity assumptions.
Appointment writeback
Enable only for approved appointment types and provider rules.
Fallback handoff
Create staff-ready summaries when PMS access is limited or confidence is low.

FAQ

Questions? We've got answers.

It means the group has confirmed PMS versions, permissions, location mapping, appointment rules, fallback mode, and approval ownership before AI booking is enabled.

Yes. Mixed PMS groups can start with routing and capture-and-handoff, then enable deeper workflows location by location.

Only when access, rules, and fallback paths are approved. Many groups start with availability read or handoff first.

Use it to decide which PMS workflows can be automated first, which locations need handoff mode, and which permissions must be approved before booking writeback.

Collect PMS name and version, location mapping, provider and operatory rules, appointment types, API or middleware access, and who approves writeback.

Keep that location in capture-and-handoff mode while other approved locations use deeper availability or booking workflows.
