As the demand for hybrid work continues to rise in the dental industry, practices are seeking ways to offer flexibility without compromising efficiency. The need to embrace more flexible staffing will not go away, and hybrid work arrangements powered by cloud-based practice management software can enhance efficiency, attract top talent, and improve work-life balance for their team members.

Hybrid Work Is Revolutionizing Dental Office Management
According to Gallup research, most workers now prefer flexible work arrangements, with many citing improved work-life balance as a key advantage. Dental practice owners and managers have taken note and have become more open to hybrid arrangements that allow staff to work some days or hours from home. Hybrid flexibility is particularly applicable to dental office administrators, who manage a wide range of tasks that are not always forward-facing with patients.

“One of the best features of Curve is the ability to access it from anywhere. We have two offices in small towns in Nebraska and can access ALL of our patient records from either office, which is a huge benefit! We can also access all of this from any location (with internet) so that when the office is closed, we still have access to data. Curve has been one of the best moves we have made in our practice!”

Some Essential Tasks Dental Administrators Can Perform from Home
Curve Dental offers a wide range of features that enable dental office administrators to effectively manage their tasks from home and on the go, including:
-
Scheduling and Appointment Management: Seamlessly manage your practice's schedule with ease. Administrators can view, manage, and schedule dental appointments from anywhere directly from their mobile device, using Curve Mobile, or from any computer using the Curve SuperHero platform. Curve’s integrated patient engagement system, Curve GRO®, tracks confirmations and has two-way text capability so your staff can efficiently reschedule patients who need to and reach out to patients who do not confirm promptly. They’ll be able to quickly fill in open slots, keeping the practice running smoothly and optimally productive.
-
Patient Communication: Elevate patient engagement with Curve's robust communication tools. Administrators can effortlessly send automated messages, from dental welcome forms to digital new patient registration and history forms, pre- and post-visit instructions, and oral health tips. This ensures consistent communication, enhances patient experience, and reduces administrative burden, all while keeping patients informed and connected to their care. They can even email dental treatment plan forms and accept eSignature from outside while working outside your dental office.
-
Revenue Cycle Management: Take control of your practice's financial health from anywhere. Administrators can manage every aspect of billing and dental claims processing directly from their home office, eliminating the need to be physically present. With Curve’s advanced electronic Revenue Cycle Management (RCM) features, payments from insurers and patients are expedited, significantly reducing the time spent on collections. This leads to more efficient cash flow and ensures that your practice’s financial operations always run smoothly and on time.
-
Dentist Business Analytics: Make informed decisions with real-time insights. Curve’s dashboards offer a comprehensive suite of reporting and analytics tools, allowing dental practice managers and owners to precisely track key performance indicators (KPIs). Whether it's monitoring patient retention rates, revenue growth, or staff productivity, these powerful tools enable you to make data-driven decisions that can enhance practice efficiency and profitability. Access these insights from anywhere, at any time, to stay on top of your business and ahead of your competition.
“The ability to access the software from anywhere with a desktop and web connection was a huge factor [in choosing Curve]. I can bring my laptop home and work there or still run front desk operations while working remotely at an oral surgeon’s office. We love the ability to access the software from multiple locations, and the customer support is outstanding. There are constant improvements happening that make Curve better each day.”
--Ashley Griffith, Berks Prosthodontics
