What makes us different
Made by clinicians for real-world practice
Developed by clinicians who understand how sensitive, and how significant, consent conversations can be. It’s designed to support, not replace, your clinical judgement.
Clarity patients can revisit
Patients receive short, animated explainer videos they can watch in their own time, with no pressure and no rush. They can come back to it later, reflect on the information, and feel more confident in their decision.
Tests that confirm understanding
Brief quizzes confirm whether patients have grasped key points, helping reduce the chance of misunderstandings or complaints. If a patient answers a question incorrectly you are alerted and you have the opportunity to re-address anything they may not have understood.
Helps protect your revenue, not just your reputation
Creates a secure, time-stamped record of what was discussed and agreed. That way, if a patient later says they didn’t know or didn’t agree, you’ve got the evidence to support what was actually discussed.
A written form isn’t suitable
for all patients
Clear, engaging videos help explain treatment options in a way that is easy to visualise and revisit. It’s a strong signal that your practice values inclusion and diverse learning needs. Patients leave feeling more informed, respected and at ease.
How it works
- Discuss treatment options with your patient, as you usually would
- Select the relevant consent video along with a pre-populated consent form or customise your own
- Send the consent digitally – your patient receives an explanatory video and a series of short questions
- You receive their results instantly including a detailed breakdown

In modern dentistry, informed consent is more than just a signature, it’s meaningful communication. By sharing clear, accessible information and ensuring patients truly understand their treatment, dental professionals can build trust, improve satisfaction and deliver care that reflects each patient’s preferences and values.
A 2004 study found that while 79% of NHS dental patients believed they had given consent, 80% hadn’t been provided with a written treatment plan or a clear explanation of the risks involved.
Often patients proceed without fully understanding their treatment plans, associated risks, or available options. This lack of clear communication can lead to confusion, reduced trust, and even legal issues highlighting the urgent need for better, more transparent consent processes in dentistry.
With Dentistry Consent, the process becomes effortless. Our platform makes consent clear, consistent, and streamlined so you can focus on what matters most, providing outstanding patient care.
