Frequently asked questions
What is the best free dental clinic management software?
Pronto is a free, open-source dental clinic management software that includes appointment scheduling, a multi-dentist calendar, patient CRM with full treatment history, dental supplies inventory and automated reminders via Email, Telegram, WhatsApp and Viber. The self-hosted version is free forever with no limits. The cloud version has a free tier and paid plans starting at $19/month — with no per-seat fees.
Can patients book a dental appointment without creating an account?
Yes. The public booking page only requires a name and phone number — no registration, no password, no app to download. Patients pick a time slot and the appointment appears in your calendar instantly. This significantly reduces the friction that causes patients to abandon the booking process.
How does Pronto reduce no-shows at dental clinics?
Pronto automatically sends a booking confirmation immediately after scheduling, a reminder 24 hours before the appointment and another reminder 1 hour before. All messages go via the channel the patient prefers — WhatsApp, Telegram, Viber or Email. Dental no-shows typically drop significantly once automated reminders are in place.
Does Pronto store patient treatment history?
Yes. Each patient record stores their full visit and treatment history — every appointment, procedures performed, payments made, notes and next recommended visit. You can pull up a returning patient's complete history in under a second.
Can Pronto manage multiple dentists and treatment rooms?
Yes. The appointment calendar shows each dentist as a separate column so you see the full clinic schedule at a glance. Bookings are protected against double-booking at the database level — it is technically impossible to overlap two appointments for the same dentist.
Can I track dental supplies inventory and get low-stock alerts?
Yes. Pronto tracks stock levels for every supply — gloves, impression materials, composites, anaesthetics and anything else your clinic uses. When any item drops below your minimum quantity, an automatic alert is sent to the clinic manager via Email, Telegram, WhatsApp or Viber.
Is Pronto cheaper than dedicated dental practice management software?
Significantly. Traditional dental practice management software often costs hundreds of dollars per month with additional per-seat licensing fees. Pronto's self-hosted version is free forever under MIT license. The cloud version starts at $19/month for the whole clinic — no per-seat fees, no commission on payments.
How do I install Pronto on my own server?
You need Docker on any Linux VPS, Windows or macOS machine with at least 1 GB RAM. Run
docker compose up -d and the full dental clinic management system starts automatically. No DevOps knowledge required. See the documentation on GitHub for step-by-step instructions.Also works great for
