Johanna Hallmer: less administration at Centrumtandvården

Johanna Hallmer, dentist and owner of Centrumtandvården in Malmö, describes the administrative work that surrounds running a dental clinic. In her interview, she discusses clinical notes, referrals and treatment planning, and what it means to have more support with the writing. Her experience of Dentio is about both the time between patients and the work that can otherwise remain at the end of the day.

Less writing around each appointment

Johanna explains that being a business owner brings plenty of administration. She appreciates help with clinical documentation, including notes, referrals and treatment plans. These tasks sit close to patient care, yet can take time beyond the appointment itself.

She says that saving time may let her fit in another patient, if she is lucky. That is a possibility she sees in her own working day, rather than a fixed increase in capacity. For a clinic exploring a similar change, it helps to identify which writing tasks regularly delay the next step and where a draft would be most useful.

A different end to the working day

Johanna also shares a personal observation from her husband, who is the clinic manager: he estimates that she gets home about an hour earlier since she started using Dentio. This is their account of her routine, rather than a measured saving that every clinic should expect.

The practical question is what usually remains after the last patient. Reviewing that work can help a team understand whether it is postponed note-writing, preparation for the next day or other administration that extends the day. A documentation tool can then be assessed against the tasks it is intended to support.

Useful drafts still need clinical review

Johanna also values suggestions for codes when she finishes the visit and prepares billing. Such suggestions need to be checked against the treatment actually provided and the applicable requirements; responsibility remains with the clinician.

In Dentio’s general documentation workflow, the consultation becomes a structured draft using dental terminology and clinic templates. The treating clinician reviews, edits and approves the content before it enters the patient record. Johanna recommends trying the tool, while a useful clinic-level evaluation should include both the draft and that review routine. Dentio’s guide to AI clinical documentation explains the process.
