Our dental practice software "Practice Works" identified $1.9 million of unfinished/unscheduled dental treatment over a two-year period. This large amount of outstanding dental work inspired introducing a dental payment plan system that encouraged patients to complete their treatment.
The DMA Treatment Membership Plan was encouraged with posting of provided DL brochures and template letters to existing patients. This enhanced our treatment acceptance by allowing patients to pay through easy, weekly direct debit.
We can provide high standard of dentistry to a majority of our patients and set our private fees to be able to give patients the time and care that is important to build a strong business with loyal patients.
The DMA dental payment plan software organizes the regular payments creating your own in-house payment plan.

A typical treatment plan of $1,800 spread over 12 weeks, with a $300 deposit, equates to $125 per week. The patient can budget, pays no interest and completes all restorative work, which means no costly surprises, emergency RCT or extraction. It's a win-win for patients and the dental practice.
The DMA Application software can be tailored to different associates at the same practice. This allows us to calculate different associate fees if different dentists at the same practice both perform part of a treatment plan.
As work is completed, dentists can mark off treatments in the software. The initials of the different associates indicate which dentist has completed which procedure or item.
We can print payment schedule and save quotes on the DMA application software, which allows patients to think over the whole process before committing.
The bottom line: patients can now complete dental work where previously it would not have been possible.
