Note Dr listens to the consultation as it happens. While you assess the smile and talk through what is realistic, it writes the record in the background, so the patient gets your eye and your attention, not the top of your head over a keyboard.
Expectations documented
What you said was realistically achievable, and what was not, captured as you discuss it.
Options and risks explained
Reversible alternatives, the irreversibility of preparation, longevity and maintenance, all on record.
Consent and photos captured
What the patient agreed to, with before treatment shade and photographs noted, recorded contemporaneously.
A reviewed Note Dr record captures more of what a record needs to stand up to scrutiny in cosmetic work, realistic expectations, options, consent and shade records, where published audits show conventional records routinely fall short.
Audits referenced: Cole & McMichael (Primary Dental Care, 2009), Hayes et al (Dental Update, 2017) and, on radiograph evaluation under IR(ME)R, a hospital audit (Kiu et al, Clinical Radiology, 2010).
Ask what the patient wanted, what you said was realistic, and exactly what they consented to, answered in seconds from their own record.
Walk into the review already knowing the story, without trawling the notes.
When a case calls for it, Note Dr surfaces the published guidance behind cosmetic care, the GDC's ethical guidance on consent and expectation-setting, the hydrogen peroxide limits that govern whitening, and the evidence on minimally invasive bonding, with the source cited. It never tells you how to treat your patient; that judgement stays with you.

★★★★★
My consent notes are bulletproof
Cosmetic complaints live and die on the consent discussion, and mine used to be the weakest part of my notes. Now every expectation I set, every risk I explain and every reversible option I offer is captured as I say it. I review and approve in seconds.
★★★★★
Expectations on record, every time
It logs exactly what I told the patient was realistic, and what wasn't, without me thinking about it. For cosmetic work that conversation is everything, and now it's always there in black and white.
★★★★★
My consultations feel unhurried
I'm not typing through a smile assessment any more. The patient gets my eye and my attention while I talk them through what's achievable, and the record is still written before they leave.
★★★★★
Shade and photos never get missed
It prompts the baseline shade and the photographs and writes them into the note, so the record before any bonding or whitening is always complete. That used to be the thing I forgot when running late.
★★★★★
Calmest complaint I've handled
A patient questioned a veneer outcome months on. The note captured the options, the irreversibility, the costs and the consent from day one. The whole story was already there, written at the time.
Every recording and record is protected by strong, independently assessed security and encryption.
★★★★★
My cosmetic notes have never been this thorough: expectations, options, the irreversibility of preparation, consent and the before photographs, all in one record. For the first time the consent discussion is the strongest part of my notes, not the weakest.

Yes — an AI scribe can draft your dental notes, provided the dentist reviews and approves every record, as the expectation of contemporaneous, complete records still rests with you. Note Dr listens to the consultation and drafts the note — presenting concern, examination, options discussed, consent and advice given — ready for you to review, amend and approve.
A cosmetic consultation note should record the patient's request, the aesthetic and dental assessment, baseline shade and photographs, the expectations you set, every option with its reversibility, risks, longevity and costs, and the consent given. Note Dr captures each as you talk — smile assessment, whitening, bonding, veneers — and drafts the note for you to review and approve.
Yes — Note Dr transcribes on your device, so consultation audio is not uploaded, and the note is drafted from that transcript for you to review and approve. Let the patient know the scribe is listening, just as you note their agreement to clinical photographs, and the discreet, private consultation cosmetic patients expect stays exactly that.
Yes — Note Dr writes cosmetic dentistry notes in the language you already use: Palmer notation for individual teeth, BPE scores, shade-guide references, and the vocabulary of the work itself, from composite bonding and diastema closure to veneer preparation. Dictate findings as you would to a nurse charting for you, and the drafted note carries them through, ready for your review and approval.
Note Dr captures the expectation-setting conversation as you have it: what you said was realistically achievable, the irreversibility of preparing healthy enamel for veneers, the reversible alternatives offered, and exactly what the patient consented to. You review and approve the record before it is saved.
Yes. Note Dr documents the baseline and target shade, the suitability check, and the whitening product prescribed under your direction within the legal hydrogen peroxide limit for over-18s. The sensitivity advice and consent are captured too, all ready for you to approve.
That is what it is built for. When a result is questioned long after treatment, the contemporaneous note already holds the realistic expectations you set, the options weighed, the irreversibility explained, the costs and the consent given, so the whole story is there in writing, not your memory.
