Patient Portal
Dentospire's patient portal lets a dental clinic's patients sign in with a one-time code sent to their email and see their own treatments, bills, prescriptions, X-rays and consent forms, pay what is due and book a visit.
The problem in a real clinic
Patients ring the clinic for a copy of last month's bill, the name of the medicine they were given, or the X-ray their physician wants to see. Each call takes the receptionist away from the patient standing at the desk.
How it works
- Make sure the patient's email address is on their record in Dentospire.
- The patient opens the portal, enters that email and receives a one-time code; there is no password to remember.
- Once in, they see their treatments, invoices, prescriptions, X-rays and photos, and their consent forms with signature status.
- On an outstanding bill they press Pay Now and pay to the clinic's UPI ID, or online where the clinic has set that up.
- To come back, they book an appointment by choosing a doctor, a date and a free time slot.
What the patient gets
- Their own dental records in one place, on their phone, without installing an app.
- Bills and prescriptions they can find again without calling the clinic.
- The portal and its education material in English, Hindi, Marathi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam, Bengali, Gujarati, Punjabi or Urdu.
- Online booking that only offers times that are free.
Safety and control
- Sign-in needs a one-time code sent to the email on the patient's record; the old date-of-birth-and-phone sign-in was withdrawn.
- Codes are rate-limited per email address and per network, so the sign-in cannot be hammered to guess a code.
- A patient sees only their own records, and only for a clinic that is active.
- Portal bookings take the same slot lock as the front desk, so a portal booking cannot double-book a doctor.
- A UPI payment made from the portal is confirmed by the clinic before the bill is marked paid.
Good to know
- A patient without an email address on their record cannot sign in to the portal.
- Consent forms can be viewed in the portal, not signed there.
- Online card payment appears only if the clinic has enabled it; otherwise patients pay by UPI or at the clinic.
Frequently asked questions
How do dental patients log in to the Dentospire patient portal?
With a one-time code sent to the email address saved on their patient record. They enter the email, receive a code and type it in; there is no password. Because the code goes by email, this works for clinics in any country.
Can patients pay their dental bill from the Dentospire portal?
Yes. An outstanding invoice shows a Pay Now button. Patients can pay to the clinic's UPI ID, which the clinic then confirms, or pay online where the clinic has enabled online payments.
Can patients see their X-rays in the Dentospire patient portal?
Yes. The portal has pages for the patient's X-rays and clinical photos, alongside their treatments, prescriptions, invoices and consent forms.
Can patients book an appointment from the Dentospire patient portal?
Yes. They choose a doctor, a date and a free time slot and confirm. The slot is checked again under the same lock the front desk uses, so it cannot be double-booked, and the appointment appears in the clinic's calendar.
