AI dental notes that would stand up in front of the GDC
No microphone on your patients. When they've gone, you tell DigitalTCO what you did, the way you'd tell a colleague, and it writes a medicolegally sound clinical note in your own words, with letters and consent forms one click away. Built by a UK dentist, for UK dentists.
Free for 14 days. Works on your phone. Works with SOE, R4, Dentally and any PMS.
What are AI dental notes?
AI dental notes are clinical records generated by artificial intelligence from your voice. You describe the appointment naturally, the way you would explain it to a colleague. The AI structures it into a proper clinical note: findings, diagnosis, options discussed, risks, consent, treatment details, post-op instructions.
The point is not the typing you save. The point is what ends up in the record. A rushed three-line note written at 5:47pm protects nobody. A structured, contemporaneous note written while the detail is fresh protects you, your patient and your practice.
DigitalTCO is the UK tool in this category. It was built by a UK dentist, it understands UK dentistry, and it produces UK-style notes with the terminology, notation and medicolegal framing that UK associates and principals actually need.
Why defensible, contemporaneous notes matter
The GDC expects you to keep complete and accurate patient records, made at the time of treatment. When a complaint lands, your notes are the evidence. Not your memory. Not what you always do. What is written down.
In litigation, the question is simple: can you prove what you found, what you offered, what risks you discussed, and what the patient agreed to? “Examined. Discussed options. Pt happy to proceed” proves none of it.
DigitalTCO exists because its founder went through a formal complaint and watched seven-word notes fail to defend clinical work that was actually sound. Every note it generates is built around the elements an expert witness looks for. If you want the full breakdown, read about defensible dental notes.
How DigitalTCO writes your AI dental notes
Three steps. Under 60 seconds. Before your next patient sits down.
Speak
After the appointment, pick up your phone and talk for 30 seconds. Describe the appointment naturally: findings, what you discussed, what you did, what you told the patient. The way you’d explain it to a colleague.
Review
DigitalTCO generates a structured, medicolegally sound clinical note: findings, diagnosis, options, risks, consent, treatment details, post-op instructions, follow-up plan. Review it, tweak anything, done.
Use
Copy the note into SOE, R4, Dentally or whatever PMS you use. Then generate referral letters, patient letters and consent forms from the same note, one click each. No retyping.
Notes are half of it. The admin around them is the rest.
The documentation burden is not just the note. It is every letter, consent form and piece of correspondence that follows every appointment. DigitalTCO handles all of it.
The appointment that produced the note produces the letters too. One click from the finished note writes the patient letter, the referral letter, the reply to a referrer or the consent form, signed off with your name and practice details on your own letterhead. Upload a letter you already send and it becomes a template: the parts that change per patient are rewritten from each note, and the parts you always say stay word for word. The others write notes. DigitalTCO writes the whole appointment.

Built for UK associates and principals
Associates
You are paid on what you do, not on the hour you spend on notes at the end of the day. DigitalTCO gives you that hour back and leaves you with better records than you had before. If a patient complains two years after you have left the practice, your notes are what defends you.
Principals
Your name is over the door. Consistent, defensible records across the whole team protect the practice, make audits painless and make complaint responses a copy-and-paste job rather than a reconstruction exercise.
Specialists and referral practices
Referral letters and treatment plan letters generated from the clinical note in one click. Orthodontists, oral surgeons and implant dentists use DigitalTCO to keep referrers updated without staying late to catch up on letters.
What UK dentists actually say

“The letter engine alone is worth the subscription. I was spending 30 minutes a day on referral letters. Now it’s one click.”
Dr Ryan Stewart

“I tried Heidi first. It’s good for medicine but it doesn’t understand dental. DigitalTCO gets it because it was built by a dentist.”
Dr Sura Makki
