In today’s fast-paced world, dental practices face the constant challenge of improving efficiency while maintaining a high level of patient satisfaction. As digital tools become increasingly essential across industries, Curve Dental® is leading the way in revolutionizing how dental offices manage their day-to-day operations. With an all-in-one platform that simplifies everything from scheduling to patient communications, Curve helps practices not only save time but also boost their bottom line.
At the heart of Curve's success is its seamless all-in-one ecosystem, where built-in features and integrated solutions deliver exceptional value to dental practices. For instance, Kidstown Dental achieved remarkable results by leveraging Curve’s powerful platform, transforming their collections and overall practice efficiency.
Kidstown Dental’s Success Story: A 45% Boost in Collections in Just 3 Months
One of the most significant challenges dental practices face is streamlining the collection process. Traditional billing methods—mailing paper statements and waiting for checks—are slow and inefficient. That’s where Curve comes in. By integrating payment solutions directly into the platform, Curve empowers practices to send invoices via text and email with a quick pay link. This immediate, paperless communication increases the likelihood of on-time payments and significantly shortens the collection cycle.
Kidstown Dental’s experience with Curve is a prime example of the platform’s power. Within just three months of adopting Curve’s integrated payments solution, the practice saw a remarkable 45% improvement in their collections for accounts in the 30-90 day range, totaling $24,781. But the success didn’t stop there. In those three months, Kidstown Dental processed over $715,000 in payments, with more than 2,000 transactions. Year-over-year, this resulted in a nearly 32% increase in their collection rate—a huge win for the practice.
Enhancing the Patient Experience with Chairside Payments
One of Curve’s standout features is its ability to simplify chairside collections. With Curve, dental practices can securely store patients’ card details on file, allowing payments to be processed directly at the point of care. A few clicks, and payments are processed—often while the patient is still in the office. This seamless, on-the-spot payment option not only streamlines the process for the dental team but also enhances the overall patient experience, making visits quicker and more convenient.
Additionally, with Curve’s ability to email receipts instantly, patients enjoy greater transparency and convenience, while practices benefit from faster processing times and reduced administrative overhead.
Maximizing Efficiency and Cutting Costs
Kidstown Dental’s adoption of Curve didn’t just result in improved collections—it also led to significant time and cost savings. Before implementing Curve’s integrated payments, the administrative team was spending almost an entire workday each month handling paper statements—sorting, stuffing envelopes, and manually noting invoices. By eliminating this manual work, the practice was able to free up valuable employee time, reducing costs and improving operational efficiency.
Plus, by going paperless, Kidstown Dental saved money on printing, postage, and supplies—costs that can quickly add up when managing hundreds or thousands of transactions a month.
Real-Time Financial Insights for Better Decision-Making
With Curve’s intuitive platform, Kidstown’s practice administrators gained access to real-time data, making it easier to monitor collections, track payments, and keep financial operations on track. The straightforward invoices, complete with visit details, built trust with patients and reduced misunderstandings about charges.
Curve’s robust reporting capabilities, integrated directly into the patient ledger, provided administrative staff with up-to-the-minute insights into practice performance, allowing them to make data-driven decisions that boost financial clarity and operational efficiency.
The Future of Dental Practice Management Is Here
