Finishing a visit and the receipt

Close a visit in one go: services, notes, files and payment, on a screen that works like a till.

Where to find it: Dashboard

  1. Step 1: Complete the visit

  5. Step 5: Notes and files (when needed)

    Click the highlighted box Write notes & Add files to the patient (or Notes & files at the top): a panel slides over the services with treatment notes, prescription, files and photos, audio and the dental chart. Back to services takes you back; what you wrote stays, even if you close the window, and is saved to the patient's file when you click Finish.

  6. Step 6: Earlier unpaid receipts

    If the patient still owes earlier receipts, they show under Previous unpaid receipts. Tick Collect these now too (marks them as paid) to take them together with this one.

  8. Step 8: Finish, then print, send or download

    Click Finish: the receipt is saved and the visit is completed. Nothing prints by itself: choose Print (A4 or 80mm), WhatsApp or Download, or close the window with X and the receipt stays saved without printing. You stay in the patient's file.

Be careful

  • When the automatic day close is off and yesterday was not closed, Dento asks to close it in Register before the first receipt of today.

Good to know

  • Receipt numbers start from 1 every year, e.g. 2026-118. A number is never given twice.
  • A visit with a receipt cannot be moved or reopened any more; only its notes can be corrected.
  • The dividing line between the services and the receipt can be dragged; Dento remembers where you left it.
