Dentists and Hygienists Love Avora
Notes used to be the killer of all things, but Avora just took it to another level. Now, Avora has my back, and I don't even think I can function without it. It truly gives me the freedom I need.
Writing notes was something I was never great at. Now, I provide a service for all offices for less than the price of a note taker and I can sleep at night. My stress level has gone down by 50% - that's not an exaggeration.

Avora is like having an extra team member that never sleeps. We've been able to take notes, shadow appointments, and reactivate patients - all without hiring additional staff!

Auditable by default
Every line in the note links back to the moment in the recording it came from.
Perio chart — UR
BOPNatural-language perio
Hygienists speak the way they always have. Avora keeps the perio chart live.
PMS-native templates
Notes write back into the fields your team already uses — not clipboard paste.
Where the note actually lands — PMS integration coverage
Avora's coverage as of April 2026. A scribe is only as good as where the note ends up — multi-location groups need direct write-back into specific PMS fields.

Frequently asked
Questions practices ask
What is an AI dental scribe?+
Can we use our own templates?+
Which dental PMS systems does it work with?+
Avora writes back natively into Dentrix, Open Dental, Eaglesoft, Denticon, and Dentrix Ascend — progress notes, perio chart, and patient communications. Other vendors vary; many only paste to the clipboard.
| PMS | Progress notes | Perio chart | Patient comms |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dentrix | Native | Voice perio supported | Yes |
| Open Dental | Native | Voice perio supported | Yes |
| Eaglesoft | Native | Voice perio supported | Yes |
| Denticon | Native | Voice perio supported | Yes |
| Dentrix Ascend | Native | Voice perio supported | Yes |
| Curve / other cloud | Varies — verify before signing | Limited | Limited |
Other vendors vary widely on the depth column. “Dentrix supported” and “writes into the progress note field on patient chart in Dentrix” are not the same thing.
