Often, the reason is that they don\u2019t know who to go to or who to trust. But often, they just feel that it is a hassle. Calling the new dental office to schedule the first appointment can take too much time. Then, there are the endless forms, consent agreements, and insurance information to fill out. For the dental practice\u2019s front office, onboarding a new patient can be equally time-consuming, distracting the front office from providing the best overall patient experience. <\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Planet DDS saw these challenges, and we have now made improvements to the online registration process.
