Elva Chairside · The iPad app for dental practices

The note writes itself. So does the plan.

Chairside listens to the visit and drafts a complete clinical note before you wash up — then charts the exam by voice, turns the treatment plan into something patients actually understand (what it's worth, what insurance covers, what they'll really pay), and catches what slips through the cracks. One iPad app, built for the operatory, that does the work that used to follow you home.

Built chairside, not at the front desk.

The second shift

It's 5:20. The last patient just left. You're not done.

You finished seeing patients twenty minutes ago — and the day still isn't over. There's the second shift: sixty to ninety minutes of charting from memory, every note thinner and less accurate the later it gets. And there's the case that walked out undecided, because the plan landed as a wall of codes and a number instead of a clear, honest picture. Chairside takes on both — it drafts the note before you wash up, and turns the treatment plan into something the patient actually understands. The work that used to follow you home, handled in the room.

01

The after-hours charting tax

Notes written from memory at 7 PM, hours after the visit — the day that never really ends.

02

Documentation from memory

Detail lost, accuracy down, insurance justification weaker — because it wasn't written in the room.

03

Things falling through the cracks

Unverified insurance, overdue recalls, unread denials — and no one watching all of it.

04

Cases that stall at the estimate

The plan lands as a wall of CDT codes and a big number — no coverage, no out-of-pocket, no clear picture — so the patient says "let me think about it."

05

The paper pile

Cards, EOBs, IDs, denials — photographed, hand-typed, filed. Hours a week, every week.

06

Fighting desk-bound software

Built for a receptionist's monitor and a mouse. You're standing, gloved, over a patient.

Why Chairside is different

Built on decisions other software didn't make.

Owns the category

Built chairside, not at the front desk

Every competitor was designed for a desktop monitor and a mouse. Chairside was built for the operatory — for someone standing, gloved, between patients. Built for where dentistry actually happens.

Shows its work

The AI that knows what it doesn't know

When Chairside infers something the visit didn't explicitly state, it flags that inference for you to verify — instead of presenting a guess as fact. Every claim traces back to its source.

One product

One app for the whole visit

Notes, charting, treatment plans, capture, schedule, review — one product, not six tools stitched together.

Voice-native

Driven by speech, not bolted on

Charting and notes are driven by natural speech in the room — you never break eye contact to operate software.

Real integration

Native, two-way PMS sync

Reads your schedule, writes notes, pulls balances — a real connection (including Dentrix Ascend), not an "AI layer floating on top."

Private by design

Privacy at the device level

Much of the intelligence runs on the iPad itself; data leaves only for actions you trigger. HIPAA-aligned, with a BAA.

Where we drew the line

What Chairside doesn't do.

Chairside isn't a replacement for your team, your judgment, or your PMS. It drafts; you decide. It charts; the clinical call is yours. It catches what slips; you stay in control. It does the predictable work and taps you on the shoulder only when something needs a human.

Not this

Not a replacement for your judgment

It drafts the note and proposes the plan — you review, edit, and sign. The clinical call is always yours.

Not this

Not a black box

Every draft is reviewed before it's signed, and every claim traces to its source. When it's unsure, it says so.

Not this

Not another system to run

It works on top of the PMS you already use — reading and writing in real time, not adding one more login.

Safe to put in the operatory

Built for the chair. Built to be trusted there.

Chairside drafts, charts, and catches — and you stay in control of all of it. Every note is reviewed before it's signed, every inference is flagged for you to verify, and your patients' data is protected by design. The work gets done; the judgment stays yours.

You review before you sign

Every note and chart is a draft for your review — nothing enters the record without you.

It flags what it's unsure of

When Chairside infers something the visit didn't state, it asks you to verify instead of guessing.

Private by design

Much of the intelligence runs on the device; data is encrypted in transit and at rest, HIPAA-aligned with a BAA.
