The work

Tasks this hire takes

A virtual assistant for orthodontists runs the treatment book, recalls and the lab dates.

The orthodontist still plans and treats.

Two jobs shape a normal week for orthodontists: Book adjustment visits on the treatment interval, and confirm lab dates before the chair. Firms hire for that rhythm, not for an empty inbox.

  • Book adjustment visits on the treatment interval

  • Confirm lab dates before the chair

  • Send retainer and recall reminders

  • Take new-patient forms

  • Chase treatment-fee instalments the practice approved

Book adjustment visits on the treatment interval. For orthodontists, that work sits beside Dental4Windows or the ortho practice system. The principal still makes the call above it.

Confirm lab dates before the chair. Ask each finalist for orthodontists when they last did this, and whether they did it in Dental4Windows or the ortho practice system.

The brief for orthodontists should treat this as a standing job: send retainer and recall reminders. Dental4Windows or the ortho practice system is where the office checks it.

Take new-patient forms. If the hire has not used Dental4Windows or the ortho practice system, the first month for orthodontists includes learning it, and the principal still reviews the output.

Chase treatment-fee instalments the practice approved. For orthodontists, write down what done looks like, and who is told when it is finished.

Day one

Software in the brief

Name Dental4Windows or the ortho practice system in the brief for orthodontists when the hire will use it in the first week.

Say whether The lab portal is required on day one for orthodontists, or taught after the start.

A short task in A treatment-interval book can be part of the interview for orthodontists, if you want to see the work.

You grant access to An instalment list. For orthodontists, the hire should have that login before week two.

  • Dental4Windows or the ortho practice system

  • The lab portal

  • A treatment-interval book

  • An instalment list

The line

Compliance boundary

The hire does not plan treatment or discuss clinical options.

For orthodontists, the interview repeats the boundary above. The hire should be able to say what they will not decide.

The first 90 days

  1. 01

    Days 1 to 30 for orthodontists are for learning Dental4Windows or the ortho practice system and the way the office already hands work across.

  2. 02

    By day 60 this should be routine for orthodontists: Send retainer and recall reminders.

  3. 03

    The day-90 review asks one question for orthodontists: is “Chase treatment-fee instalments the practice approved” happening without you chasing it?

What we ask before we search

  • On the call for orthodontists, we ask who does this today: book adjustment visits on the treatment interval.
  • We ask which of these the hire for orthodontists must open on day one: Dental4Windows or the ortho practice system, The lab portal, A treatment-interval book.
  • For orthodontists, we ask you to say the line a new starter must not cross.

Shared hours are written into the brief for orthodontists before anyone is approached.
