Stay independent. Run like a DSO.

DSOs win on operations, not dentistry: the same procedures in every office, numbers the owner sees every week, and procedures written down so they don't depend on one person's memory. DentalIQ™ gives an independent practice those procedures for the business side (insurance, claims, treatment plans, recall, reviews and the numbers), with AI doing the routine work and the practice's own team approving it.

Why it matters

The ADA Health Policy Institute counts a practice as DSO-affiliated when an outside organization manages some or all of its nonclinical functions, such as billing, marketing or HR. In 2024, more than one in four dentists up to 10 years out of dental school were affiliated with a DSO.

How it works

  1. 1The morning huddle. The dashboard opens on today's schedule with each patient's insurance status and what needs attention.
  2. 2Insurance procedure (InsureIQ). Electronic checks before the visit, and a call sheet for whatever the payer didn't answer.
  3. 3Claims and denials (BillingIQ). Three-stage checks before sending, appeals drafted for review, and days to payment, measured.
  4. 4Treatment plans (AcceptIQ). An estimate from the patient's own insurance check, priorities set by the dentist, and approval before printing.
  5. 5Bringing patients back (RecallIQ). An accurate overdue list, a daily call list, and personal messages a person approves.
  6. 6Google reviews (ReviewIQ). The same honest ask for every patient, drafted per patient and approved by the team.
  7. 7The numbers (ReportIQ). A report for any month, on demand, built only from your own records. Nothing is estimated.
  8. 8Your practice software stays. DentalIQ works alongside Open Dental, Dentrix or Eaglesoft.

What it doesn't do

  • It doesn't take over your practice, your name or your clinical decisions. It isn't a DSO.
  • It doesn't replace your team. AI does the routine work, and a person approves everything patient-facing.
  • It doesn't promise a higher practice value, acceptance rate or recovery figure. The founding program measures results from your own baseline, starting with days to payment.
  • It doesn't replace your practice software.

Where the results go

One patient record across every module: the insurance check feeds the treatment estimate and the claim checks, check-outs keep recall current, and ReportIQ pulls any month together on demand.

Frequently asked questions

Is DentalIQ a DSO?

No. It's software. The practice keeps its name, ownership and clinical decisions.

What does "run like a DSO" mean here?

The same business procedures every day, numbers the owner can see, and procedures written into the software so they don't depend on one person's memory.

Will it replace my front desk?

No. It takes routine work off the team (hold music, retyping, chasing) so the people you have can spend their time on patients, treatment and collections.

Do I need to change practice software?

No. It works alongside it.

Is it for DSOs?

No. It's built for independent practices, typically 1–5 chairs.
