Why dentists are switching to AI scribes
Dentistry never had the dedicated scribe role that medicine has. In practice the alternative is your own evening: either the note gets written up after the patient leaves, or you need a second pair of hands chairside purely so someone can chart while you examine. ButterNote drafts the note during the visit, on every patient, without adding anyone to the schedule.
Unlike generic transcription tools, ButterNote is built specifically for dental professionals. It understands dental terminology, procedure codes, and clinical workflows. The AI generates structured notes that match how you document, from SOAP notes to custom templates tailored to your specialty. Prefer to start from a proven format? Browse our free dental note templates and customize one in seconds.
Prefer not to record? ButterNote also writes AI dental notes by click-build, with no audio at all. Weighing up the options? Here is every AI dental scribe compared on price, PMS integration and privacy, with each fact linked to the vendor's own site.
Frequently asked questions
What is an AI dental scribe?
An AI dental scribe is software that generates clinical documentation such as SOAP notes from a recording of the visit. ButterNote transcribes on-device and structures the note, so it is drafted while you work instead of written up after hours.
How accurate are the notes?
ButterNote uses advanced speech recognition optimized for dental terminology. All generated notes are presented for your review before charting, so you maintain full control over accuracy and can edit as needed.
How much does an AI dental scribe cost?
ButterNote is $39.99 a month for a single clinician. A practice plan covers up to 5 clinicians for $159 a month, or up to 12 for $299 a month, billed once for the whole practice with no per-seat licensing. Every plan includes a 14-day trial. See full pricing.
