Is patient data handled in line with data protection rules?

Yes, patient data is stored with access limited to authorized staff. Specific data protection requirements for your clinic should be confirmed during setup.

Can we keep using our current appointment book alongside this?

You can, but the value comes from consolidating records into one system. We usually recommend a transition period rather than running both indefinitely.

How long does setup take?

For a single clinic with an existing patient list, initial setup is typically a matter of days; multi-branch or custom-field requirements take longer.

Does this work for a clinic with several branches?

Yes, Luci CRM supports multiple branches with shared or branch-level views depending on how you want to manage access.

How is pricing determined?

Pricing depends on the number of users, branches and whether custom fields or integrations are needed. We confirm this after understanding your setup.

Comprehensive Dental Clinic Management System

Manage your entire clinic on one platform — from appointments and patient management to treatment tracking, collections and inventory.

Growth in a dental clinic rarely becomes a problem overnight. It starts when daily operations become fragmented: the appointment book is separate from patient history, treatment records are disconnected from payment tracking, and inventory levels are only noticed when a material runs out. As a clinic grows — whether through more dentists, additional branches or a higher patient volume — this fragmentation becomes an operational burden. Lucerna brings these processes together with Luci Dental Clinic Management System in one role-based, cloud-based platform that scales from a single-dentist practice to a multi-branch dental group.

5 operational bottlenecks in dental clinics

If several of the situations below sound familiar, your clinic's operations may be becoming harder to control as the business grows.

Two dentists are booked for the same time slot, or an appointment is entered twice, and the conflict is only discovered when the patient arrives.
Finding a patient's treatment history requires switching between appointment books, treatment notes and separate files.
Completed treatments and payments are tracked in different places, allowing outstanding balances to accumulate without being noticed for months.
Missing materials or expired products are only discovered when they are needed for a treatment.
As the clinic grows, there is no clear answer to who can access which data or who changed a particular record.

What does Lucerna change in your clinic?

The goal is to connect the entire clinic operation — from patient registration to collections — through one centralized system, so that no critical process depends on individual memory or scattered spreadsheets.

Patient information, treatment history, appointments, files and financial records collected in one unified patient profile with Luci Dental
A centralized, dentist-based appointment calendar with conflict alerts for daily, weekly and monthly scheduling
Treatment plans and clinical procedures tracked through an interactive dental chart for each patient
Completed procedures connected to financial processes, with payments, outstanding balances and collections monitored from one place
Centralized inventory tracking based on stock levels, critical stock alerts and product expiration dates
Role-based workspaces and management dashboards for dentists, receptionists, accounting staff, nurses, technicians and administrators
Optional integration with Luci Call Assistant to handle incoming calls and route appointment requests during busy periods

Example use cases

Single-dentist practices

For dentists who want to manage patients, appointments, treatments and financial processes through a simple, centralized system instead of scattered spreadsheets and separate tools.

Multi-dentist clinics

For clinics that want to manage multiple dentists' schedules, treatment processes and operational performance through one system.

Multi-branch dental groups

For dental groups that want to centrally manage users, dentists, patients and operational processes across different branches.

Growing clinics

For practices looking to move to a more controlled and scalable system as patient volume, staff numbers and operational complexity increase.

Setup and adaptation process

1
Reviewing current processes
We map how patient registration, appointments, treatment and collection processes currently work and identify which tools are being used.
2
Data migration and pilot branch
Existing patient and appointment records are migrated into the system. For multi-branch clinics, the implementation can begin with a single branch before expanding across the organization.
3
Configuring roles and permissions
User roles such as dentists, receptionists, accounting staff and administrators are configured according to your clinic structure, with each user given access only to the screens and data they need.
4
Go-live and staff training
Reception and clinical teams are trained on daily workflows such as appointments, treatment records and collections. Minor adjustments can then be made based on real-world feedback during the initial rollout.

Frequently asked questions

How is patient data security and data protection compliance handled?: The system uses role-based access so that each user can access only the data relevant to their responsibilities. Data protection notices, consent processes and other compliance requirements should be managed by the clinic. For clinic-specific compliance requirements, we recommend consulting a qualified legal advisor.
Is it difficult to migrate our existing appointment book or Excel records?: This depends on the volume and format of your existing data. Before migration, we review the available records together and create an appropriate migration plan.
Is this necessary for a small, single-dentist practice?: Yes. Even single-dentist practices can experience appointment conflicts and fragmented treatment and payment tracking. A simple setup tailored to the size of the practice is often sufficient.
Is one system enough for a multi-branch dental group?: Yes. The system can be configured to operate by branch while remaining centrally manageable. Each branch can maintain its own patient and appointment records, while management can monitor the overall operation from a single dashboard.
How long does setup take?: Setup for a single-branch clinic is generally straightforward. The timeline depends largely on the condition of the existing data and the availability of the clinic team. Multi-branch implementations may take longer depending on the number of branches.
How is pricing determined?: Pricing is determined based on the number of dentists, branches, users and any required custom development. The final scope and pricing are confirmed after understanding your clinic's requirements rather than providing a fixed price in advance.
