Post-op and new-patient letter library in a week
Every practice sends the same 15 or so documents — extraction post-op, temporary crown care, new-patient welcome — and most were written a decade ago at a reading level patients skim past. Practices building a letter library with AI report saving 8-16 hours of writing in the first week alone.
You write patient instructions for {{practice_name}}, a general dental practice. Create a post-op instruction sheet for: {{procedure}}. Format, in this order: 1. "The first 24 hours" — the 4-6 things that matter most today, as short bullets. 2. "What's normal" — expected sensations (soreness, oozing, sensitivity) with realistic timelines. 3. "Call us if" — clear warning signs, each on its own line, with our number {{phone}}, and an instruction to call 911 for emergencies like trouble breathing or swallowing. 4. "Do / Don't" — two short columns covering eating, brushing, smoking, straws, and exercise as relevant to this procedure. Rules: - 6th-grade reading level. Short sentences. No dental jargon without a plain-word explanation. - For pain medication, write only: "Take medication exactly as prescribed or as Dr. [DOCTOR] directed" — do not invent drug names or doses. - Under 400 words so it prints on one page. - Then give me a 2-3 sentence version of the key points, sized for a follow-up text message.
Fill in your details and the prompt updates live — then copy.
The first 24 hours - Keep gentle pressure on the gauze for 30-60 minutes. Change it when soaked. - No spitting, rinsing, or straws today. These can dislodge the clot that protects the site. - Rest today. Skip the gym. What's normal - Oozing that tints your saliva pink through the first day. - Swelling that peaks around day 2-3, then improves. - A few small white granules from the graft near the site. Call us if: bleeding won't slow with steady pressure, swelling makes it hard to swallow, or pain gets worse after day 3...
The full workflow
- List the 10-15 documents your practice sends most, then generate one per prompt run
- Have the dentist correct anything that differs from your actual technique or protocols
- Save approved versions as PMS templates and print masters
- Revisit the library twice a year and regenerate anything that reads stale
Watch out for
The dentist must review every sheet before it enters rotation — AI defaults may not match your technique (for example, rinsing timelines after grafts vary by protocol).
Never let the AI supply drug names or doses. Medication instructions come from the prescription, not the template.
Where this comes from
Every use case on this site is grounded in real reports from working dentists — not invented by us.
