Dental Prescriber6.2 - App Store

The Dental Prescriber App for iPhone is designed to enable and educate dentists to quickly look up the scripts required to manage a patient's oral disease or symptoms.

The standouts of the application are
-The examples shown in the app show you what you have to write for all dental conditions. This is different from existing dental literature which provide you the patient dosing.
In other words..
-The form and concentration of the drug has been included for you
-The number of capsules and tablets have been included in the script
-Calculations based on weight (handy for paediatric scripts) have been performed for you

As this application is made by a dentist, for dentists, this app can be expanded to suit the needs of dentists who provide feedback. Furthermore, updates will be released to ensure the application remains up-to-date.
