R4+ is a dental practice management system that is designed to make the running of a dental practice easier for all staff. The main features of R4+ are:
Easily accessible patient-related information, showing you what you need to know about a patient when they are in the practice or talking to you on the phone.
Appointment Books, showing a clear view of the appointments booked each day and enabling you to book appointments according to the preferences of patients and practitioners.
Clinical charting, providing the state of teeth and restorations, automatic compilations of baseline charts and treatment plans, and instructions for displaying and selecting alternative treatment plans.
Periodontal charting, providing graphical measurements.
Links to many digital imaging systems.
Financial reporting to help control your cash flow.
Patient communications, with automatic mailings, recall and reminder messages, and records showing when messages were sent. Letters from patients can be scanned so that they can be seen without retrieving a paper copy. Messages can be sent by email, SMS text message, or letter, as appropriate.
Integration with Microsoft Office; for example, Microsoft Word is used for editing letter templates, and Microsoft Excel is used for accounts and reports.
