Connected dentist communication

Dentist updates feed the same workflow the lab already uses

The doctor portal is included for every subscribing lab. Information dentists submit belongs with the case instead of becoming a separate inbox the production team has to reconcile.

Portal included

The doctor portal is part of the single Dental Lab Guru subscription rather than a higher-tier add-on.

Files with the case

Rx information, notes and uploaded files stay associated with the work they describe.

Less status chasing

Dentists can follow relevant case status while the lab keeps production ownership and deadlines visible.

Best practices

Invite dentists after your internal workflow is ready.

Use required fields for intake quality.

Keep portal messages connected to case records.

Review portal adoption with frequent dentist clients.
