To Make Sure We Have Room For Restorative Work And Also Schedule To Production We Work Off Of Blocks. The schedule is set to only show doctors columns on the days that they are scheduled to work regularly.

  • Crown blocks no more than 3 across at the same time (bc we have 3 mills)

    • 1.5 hours

    • Can be staggered 30 minutes and add additional

    • Should Be In All Doctors Books On The 3rd Floor

    • 30 Minute Restorative or Emergency Block on the side of crown at 30 minutes in. Should be removed and blocked if more than one crown is scheduled or other restorative work on the crown patient.

    • Total number of crown blocks 3 per doctor per day

  • 60 Minute Blocks

    • For longer restorative appointments. Typically high value

    • Can be in first or second column.

    • Typically first 10 minutes can overlap another block

    • A block “do not schedule” should be put in the column next to the 60 minute block

  • 40 Minute Blocks

    • We do not want short appointments back to back.

    • Can be in either column
