Hygiene notes, done before the next patient.

Built on Kubo Scribe & Letters

Bring the hygiene column
into the same workflow.

Every plan documents the providers’ visits. The Hygiene module gives each hygienist their own login and does the same for the hygiene column: the visit note, the perio findings, and the letter back to the referring dentist.

The note itself

Charted the way your hygienists chart.

Kubo writes the hygiene note from the hygienist’s dictation, in the practice’s own hygiene format.

  • In the hygienist’s words Findings, treatment, and home care as the hygienist dictated them. Nothing invented.
  • Perio findings, recorded Probing depths, bleeding, recession, and mobility land in the note as the hygienist dictates them, in dental notation.
  • Reviewed before it files The hygienist reads and signs the note. Only then does it write back to the chart.

To: Dr. Reyes, Cedar Park Dental Re: Periodontal maintenance — alternating recall

Jane Doe was seen today for her three-month periodontal maintenance visit. Thank you for continuing to share her care with us.

Probing depths remain generalized 2–3 mm with localized 4–5 mm sites on the posterior molars. Bleeding on probing has improved to 12% from 18% at her last visit, with no mobility or suppuration. Full-mouth maintenance was completed with localized irrigation at the deeper sites, and home care was reviewed with a focus on the molars.

Her next maintenance visit here is in six months; her visit with your office falls in between. Today's periodontal chart is attached, and I'll let you know if anything changes at the deeper sites.

With thanks,

Drafted from the perio maintenance note Perio chart

Letters

Dentists hear back
after every visit.

Alternating recall only works if the other office knows what you found. Kubo drafts the update from the hygienist’s signed note, on your letterhead, and sends it the same day.

  • Drafted from the signed note Every finding in the letter traces back to the note the hygienist signed. Nothing is written twice.
  • The recall, closed What was found, what was done, and when the patient is due back in their chair.
  • Out the same day Sent by fax or email through Kubo Letters, tracked until it lands, and filed to the chart.

Everything in the add-on

Everything a hygienist needs
to leave the chart done.

Every feature the Hygiene module adds, in the order a hygienist meets them. All of it runs in the Kubo app on iPad, phone, and desktop, on top of the plan your providers already have.

01

Hygiene visits

Visit types and procedure forms built for the hygiene column.

  • Hygiene visit types Prophylaxis, periodontal maintenance, implant maintenance, and gross debridement, each set up as its own visit.
  • Procedure forms A structured form for each hygiene procedure, so the note captures what that visit actually involves.
  • Periodontal findings Probing depths, bleeding, recession, mobility, and calculus, typed in dental notation as the hygienist dictates them.
  • Recall interval The next visit and the alternating schedule with the referring office, carried in the plan.
02

The note

Dictated by the hygienist, written in your templates.

  • Filled, not typed At the end of the visit the hygienist fills a smart form for findings, treatment, and home care. Kubo writes the note from it.
  • Dental notation, first time Tooth numbers, probing depths, and hygiene terminology come out formatted the way the chart expects.
  • Your hygiene templates Notes follow the practice’s own hygiene format: sentences, phrasing, and notation.
  • Review and sign Every note is read and signed before it files. Nothing reaches the chart unreviewed.
03

Letters

The referring dentist hears back after every visit.

  • Letter to the referring dentist Drafted from the signed note: what was found, what was done, and when the patient is due back.
  • Your letterhead and sign-off The letter carries the practice’s letterhead, signature block, and voice, like every Kubo letter.
  • Sent and tracked Out by fax or email through Kubo Letters, tracked until it lands, and filed to the chart.
04

The hygienist’s view

A login trimmed to what a hygienist does.

  • Hygienist login Each hygienist signs in as themselves, with their own schedule and their own notes.
  • Trimmed to hygiene Only hygiene visit types and procedures show. Surgical sections are hidden automatically for a hygienist.
  • Today’s column from the PMS The hygiene schedule comes straight from the practice management system, so no visit is set up by hand.
05

Chart & billing

Write-back, devices, and how it’s priced.

  • Written back to the chart The signed hygiene note files to the patient record in WinOMS, OMSVision, Open Dental, and more.
  • Priced per hygienist Add the module to any plan for each hygienist. Provider seats are unchanged.
  • iPad, phone, and desktop Runs on the Kubo app wherever the hygienist charts: iPad at the chair, desktop at the front.

Every hygiene visit, noted.
Every dentist, updated.

Give your hygienists the same platform your surgeons already use.
