Overview
Before a practice goes live with MyTooth, several configuration items must be completed to ensure appointments, forms, and scheduling logic function correctly within Denticon.
Resolution Steps (Required Pre-Go-Live Checks)
- Verify Communication Settings.
- Confirm Appointment Types are mapped to Production Types.
- Create required Forms and Packets.
- Complete PMS Consent Letter Mapping.
- Configure Find Slot Options.

Pro Tips
- Avoid Fixed Operatory (Option C) unless the practice explicitly schedules by operatory rather than production type — this option bypasses Denticon's scheduling logic entirely.
- Use QR codes for in-office completion and SMS/email links for pre-visit intake — this reduces check-in delays.
- Most go-live issues trace back to Production Type mapping or Find Slot Options — review these two areas first when troubleshooting.
- Train staff to recognize the MyTooth logo — this reduces confusion when reconciling online vs. manually scheduled appointments.
Notes for Support Reps
- If a practice reports go-live issues, check Production Type mapping and Find Slot Options first — these are the most common root causes.
- If a customer wants operatory-based scheduling instead of production-type-based scheduling, confirm they understand Fixed Operatory (Option C) bypasses Denticon's normal scheduling logic before enabling it.
- Point customers to the MyTooth User Guide v3.2 for full configuration walkthroughs beyond this checklist.
