Curve Dental integrations connect outside tools to Curve's cloud practice management system so they can read the schedule and write appointments into it. Curve has already announced a direct integration with a cloud phone system, which tells you the platform is built for phone tools to plug into. An AI receptionist connected to Curve can find the patient, check the schedule, and book the appointment while the caller is on the line. Telvana connects to Curve Dental through Kolla, the practice-data platform that integrates with every major dental practice management system.
What Curve Dental is
Curve Dental describes itself as the number one ranked cloud-based dental software and the most widely used cloud practice management solution in dentistry. It runs scheduling, charting, billing, imaging, and patient communication in the browser, which is why practices choose it: no server in the closet, and the same system at every location.
Curve publishes an integration partners program and has announced integrations with imaging, marketing, and phone platforms, including a cloud phone system integration with Mango Voice aimed at patient phone communication. The point for a buyer is simple: Curve expects phone tools to connect, and the vendor you pick should be able to say how it does.
What a real Curve integration does on a call
| Step on the call | What the integration does in Curve Dental | What a message-only service does instead |
|---|---|---|
| Caller gives their name and birthdate | Finds the existing patient record | Writes the name in a message |
| Caller asks for a cleaning next week | Reads open slots for the right provider, operatory, and length | Offers a callback |
| Caller picks a time | Creates the appointment in Curve with the correct appointment type | Emails the front desk |
| Caller moves an appointment | Finds and reschedules the existing one | Takes a note |
| Call ends | Writes the call summary to the patient record | Sends a transcript |
Cloud PMS integrations like this one run between two cloud platforms, so there is nothing to install on the office computer and nothing that stops working when it restarts.
Questions to ask any vendor claiming Curve integration

- For multi-location practices on Curve, does it book across every location?
- Is the integration included in the monthly price?
Ask for a test appointment booked into a sandbox Curve account during the demo. What write-back involves applies to Curve as much as to any other system.
