PDF documents for dentists

2 min read·25 November 2027

As a dentist you work with treatment plans, X-rays, patient correspondence, and insurance forms. PDFrust helps you merge patient files, secure them, and prepare them for handover — entirely locally and GDPR-compliant for medical data.

Assembling patient files for handover

When transferring to another dentist you provide a complete file: the anamnesis, treatment records, periodontal charting, and X-rays. With PDFrust you merge all documents into one structured handover file. The split function helps you extract specific periods or treatments on patient request.

Presenting treatment plans professionally

Complex dental treatment plans (orthodontics, implants, prosthetics) consist of multiple parts: the diagnostic summary, treatment timeline, cost estimate, and patient information. Combine all components into one clear treatment plan to hand to the patient or send digitally.

Archiving X-rays and CBCT reports

Digital X-rays (bitewing, periapical, panoramic) are generated as DICOM export PDFs. Merge the X-ray series with the accompanying report in one diagnostic file. Compress large CBCT export files for inclusion in the practice management system.

Archiving insurance forms and claims files

Dental insurance requires authorisation forms for major treatments (crowns, implants, orthodontics). Archive all authorisations and insurer correspondence per patient in one clear file. The split function helps you extract the most recent authorisation for the claim.

Processing patient data in a privacy-safe way

Dental files contain special category personal data: health information and treatment data. PDFrust processes all files locally in your browser — no cloud uploads. Secure final patient files with a password for safe digital transfer to the patient or a colleague dentist.
