Keep Eyes on Patients

Even When They're Not in Your Chair

Remote Patient Monitoring lets you track healing, monitor treatment progress, and catch problems early without requiring patients to come in. Automated check-ins, photo submissions, and smart alerts keep you informed between visits.

Remote Patient Monitoring

RPM for Dentistry

What It Actually Means

In medicine, Remote Patient Monitoring often means continuous tracking of vital signs via wearable devices. In dentistry, RPM is different it's about structured, periodic check-ins that let you monitor patients between office visits.

Scheduled photo submissions

Patients send photos of healing sites, orthodontic progress, or areas of concern at defined intervals

Automated check-in surveys

Post-procedure questionnaires sent automatically (pain level, swelling, concerns)

Treatment tracking

Orthodontic aligner compliance, night guard usage, home care adherence

Connected device integration

Sleep apnea device data, oral health sensors, compliance trackers

Alert-based follow-up

Automatic notifications when patient responses indicate potential issues

What Happens Between Visits Matters

Patients don't always show once the appointment ends. Follow-ups, recovery tracking, treatment discussions, and second opinions all happen between visits and they require more than a generic video call. DentuluPro RPM ensures these critical moments are documented, structured, and seamlessly integrated into your clinical workflow.

From

Setup to Active Monitoring

DentuluPro Remote Patient Monitoring coordinates your entire patient care journey from protocol setup to automated check-ins, photo submissions, and smart alerts that keep you informed between visits and catch problems early.

01
Create Monitoring Protocol

Define what you want to track: post-extraction healing, ortho progress, implant osseointegration. Set check-in frequency (daily, weekly, custom).

Create Monitoring Protocol
02
Assign to Patients

After a procedure or at treatment start, assign the monitoring protocol to the patient. They're automatically enrolled.

Assign to Patients
03
Patient Receives Check-ins

At scheduled intervals, patient gets SMS/email prompting them to submit photos and answer check-in questions.

Patient Check-ins
04
Review Submissions

Submissions appear in your monitoring dashboard. Review photos, check responses, and assess progress.

Review Submissions
05
Act on Alerts

If responses indicate potential issues (high pain, concerning photos), you're alerted immediately. Reach out or schedule follow-up.

How does it work with

DentuluPro RPM?

Remote monitoring extends care beyond the operatory. By combining structured photo submissions, symptom tracking, and automated check-ins, dentists can identify early warning signs, reinforce patient compliance, and reduce unnecessary in-office visits while maintaining clinical oversight and documentation.

  • Day 1, 3, 7 automated photo requests to monitor healing
  • Pain scale check-ins to track recovery trajectory
  • Alerts if pain increases rather than decreases (possible dry socket, infection)
  • Reduces unnecessary "is this normal?" calls and visits
  • Weekly or bi-weekly photo submissions to track movement
  • Aligner compliance tracking (self-reported hours worn)
  • Early detection of tracking issues before next in-office visit
  • Extend time between office visits for compliant patients
  • Monthly photo check-ins on healing abutment/site
  • Symptom surveys for early detection of peri-implantitis signs
  • Patient reassurance during long waiting period
  • Documentation of integration progress for records
  • Compliance tracking (nights worn, hours per night)
  • Symptom surveys (snoring reduction, daytime fatigue, partner feedback)
  • Integration with connected sleep devices for objective data
  • Adjustment recommendations based on reported outcomes
  • Home care adherence tracking (brushing, flossing, rinse use)
  • Photo submissions of gum tissue between maintenance visits
  • Early detection of inflammation or recession changes
  • Reinforce patient engagement in their own care

Monitoring Tools

That Work for Dental

Everything you need to monitor patients remotely. From automated check-ins to smart alerts.

Customizable Protocols

Create monitoring templates for different procedures: extraction healing, implant follow-up, ortho tracking. Reuse across patients.

Flexible Scheduling

Set check-in frequency: daily, every X days, weekly, or custom dates. Adjust based on patient needs.

Photo Submissions

Guided photo capture ensures quality images. Multiple angles, specific areas of focus based on protocol.

Check-In Surveys

Custom questionnaires: pain scales, symptom checklists, compliance questions. Tailored to what you need to know.

Patient Timeline

Complete history of submissions for each patient. Compare photos over time, track symptom trends.

Monitoring Dashboard

See all active monitoring patients in one view. Filter by protocol, status, or alert level.

Consultation Integration

If monitoring reveals an issue, escalate to video consultation or in-office visit with one click.

Compliance Reporting

Track which patients are engaging with monitoring and which need additional outreach.

Automated Reminders

Patients get automatic prompts for check-ins. Escalating reminders if they miss submissions.

Smart Alerts

Define alert conditions: pain above threshold, concerning keywords, missed check-ins. Get notified when intervention may be needed.

Why

Remote Monitoring Matters

Remote monitoring creates a win-win for both your practice and your patients. It reduces unnecessary chair time, improves early detection of complications, and strengthens documentation while giving patients reassurance, convenience, and faster responses when issues arise.

For Your Practice
Fewer unnecessary visits

Patients with normal healing don’t need to come in just to confirm everything looks fine

Earlier problem detection

Catch complications before they become emergencies requiring urgent intervention

Fewer Calls & Better Documentation

Automated check-ins replace calls and create a visual record of progress.

Extended reach

Monitor patients who live far away or have difficulty coming in frequently

For Your Patients
Peace of mind

Knowing you’re watching over their recovery without requiring office visits

Convenience

Submit photos from home instead of taking time off for a follow-up appointment

Faster intervention

If something IS wrong, you’ll know sooner and can act faster

Engagement

Patients feel more connected to their care and involved in their outcomes.

After every extraction, I used to tell patients 'call if anything seems off.' Now I actually SEE how they're healing. Caught a dry socket at day 2 because the photos looked concerning patient hadn't even noticed yet.

Not exactly. Medical RPM typically involves continuous vital sign monitoring via wearables. Dental RPM focuses on periodic check-ins scheduled photo submissions, symptom surveys, and compliance tracking. It's structured monitoring designed for dental use cases like post-surgical healing and orthodontic progress.

No. Check-ins are delivered via SMS and email with links that open in the patient's mobile browser. No app download required. Patients with the DentuluPro patient app can also submit through the app if they prefer.

The system sends automatic reminders. You can configure reminder frequency and escalation. If a patient misses multiple check-ins, you're alerted so you can reach out personally.

Dental insurance coverage for RPM varies. Some payers are beginning to recognize remote monitoring codes, particularly for orthodontics. Check with your specific payers. Even without direct reimbursement, RPM often pays for itself through reduced chair time and earlier problem detection.

DentuluPro includes pre-built protocols for common scenarios (post-extraction, implant healing, ortho tracking). You can use these as-is or customize them. Creating a new protocol takes just a few minutes define the check-in schedule, questions, and photo requirements.

Yes. All submissions are encrypted in transit and at rest. Photos and health information are stored securely within DentuluPro's HIPAA-compliant infrastructure. We provide a signed Business Associate Agreement (BAA).
