Translating Treatment Plans

Multilingual Treatment Plans

Modern dental practices serve patients from many language backgrounds. Our translation feature lets you produce a single treatment plan in multiple languages so that every patient — and their family — can read and understand the recommended care in their own words.

How It Works

Each plan starts in a single source language, which you choose at creation time (or which inherits from your default plan language preference). Once the plan is saved, you can add any number of additional language versions. Each translation is stored alongside the source, never replacing it, so you can switch between them freely or share different versions with different recipients.

Adding a Translation

1. Open the plan from your dashboard.
2. Click the Languages (globe) icon in the editor toolbar.
3. Tick the languages you want to add. Each costs 0.5 credits; Lifetime members translate for free.
4. Click Translate. Translations complete in a few seconds.
5. The new versions appear as switchable tabs at the top of the editor.

What Gets Translated

• Procedure names and clinical descriptions, using domain-specific dental terminology.
• Patient-facing explanations and aftercare instructions, rephrased naturally for the target language.
• Tooth notation labels (e.g. "upper-right canine") translated into the convention used by speakers of that language.
• Headings, section titles, and footer text — including any clinic branding you've configured.

Editing Translations

Each translation is independently editable. Tweak wording, adjust tone, or correct regional terminology and your changes save automatically. Edits to one language never propagate to others, so you can fine-tune each version for its specific audience.

Sharing Multilingual Plans

When you create a share link, choose the default language the recipient sees first. Inside the shared view, recipients can switch to any other available translation using a built-in language picker — useful when a plan is being read by both a patient and a family member who prefers a different language.

Keeping Translations in Sync

If you significantly edit the source plan after translating, click Re-translate next to the affected language to refresh it. Only the changed paragraphs are reprocessed, so refresh costs stay small.
