About Lightning Dental Charts

About Lightning Dental Charts
The idea behind Lightning Dental Charts is simple: Combine cutting-edge technology with deep industry insight to create the fastest and most legally robust dental charting tool on the market today. Our heritage lies in the professional journey of our founder and CEO Jeff Tonner.
As one of the leading dental malpractice defense attorneys in the U.S., Jeff grew tired of seeing his clients — all dentists — fall victim to the inherent shortcomings in dental charting. He recognized the same patterns emerging time and again: The current charts used by most dentist are an afterthought, poorly designed to optimally help dentists and patients.
- They are time consuming
- They provide inferior legal protection
He knew there had to be a better way, so he decided to create a software solution that distils his unique expertise – Lightning Dental Charts.
Lightning Dental Charts provides two unique benefits to its subscribers:
Speed
Our progress note templates use pre-filled slides that allow dentists (or their staff) to produce flawless records in seconds, not minutes. If you want to see what we mean, try our demo chart on our Homepage.
Legal defensibility
Each template and consent form is specifically crafted to help keep you and your staff protected in the event of a dental board case, lawsuit, etc. Better still, our charts evolve and improve along with the case law, keeping your practice on the leading edge when it comes to risk management.
