Frequently Asked Questions
How accurate is this dental AI ROI calculator?
This calculator uses editable documentation-time inputs and a modeled 65% reduction assumption to estimate the business impact of reducing manual documentation. Your actual results will vary based on practice workflow, case complexity, setup quality, provider adoption, and plan fit.
What documentation time averages does the calculator use?
The calculator defaults to 7 minutes per dentist appointment and 20 minutes per hygienist appointment (hygienist time includes perio charting). These defaults are editable. If your team spends more or less time on notes, update the sliders to reflect your actual workflow and the calculator will recalculate instantly.
Does this calculator include hygienist documentation time?
Yes — and most dental AI ROI tools don’t. Hygienists typically spend 5–8 minutes per appointment on clinical notes, which adds up to hundreds of hours per year for even a single-hygienist practice. OraCore Scribe supports hygienist documentation workflows, so we built hygienist time into the calculation from the start. Set the number of hygienists to 0 if you want to see dentist-only impact.
How does OraCore calculate documentation time savings?
The calculator uses a modeled 65% reduction in documentation time as a planning assumption, not a guaranteed outcome. For a broader ROI discussion, see our full explanation at oracoreai.com/dental-ai-scribe-roi-math.
What’s a realistic ROI timeline?
The payback timeline depends on documentation burden, plan fit, provider adoption, and whether the practice needs Solo, Team, Pro, or Enterprise scope. OraCore’s current public plans are not priced per provider, but multi-location and PMS-read needs can change plan fit. The calculator shows a modeled payback timeline in months based on your inputs.
Is this calculator only for solo practices?
No. The calculator scales for any practice size. Use the ‘Number of dentists’ and ‘Number of hygienists’ fields to reflect your full team. The outputs show both per-provider and total-team figures, making it equally useful for solo practitioners evaluating individual ROI and DSO administrators building a business case across multiple locations.
What happens after I enter my email?
