Ortho Cases Have the Longest 'Not Yet' Window in Dentistry

A patient who says yes to Invisalign or braces still might not start for months. CaseFollow keeps every diagnosed ortho case in a working queue until the start date is actually on the schedule.

Why ortho starts stall

Long gap between 'yes' and start date

Patients agree, then wait for the 'right time' — school breaks, travel, budget — and the case quietly slips.

Monthly payment plans need setup

In-house financing takes a conversation and paperwork — without follow-up, that step just doesn't happen.

Multiple decision-makers

Ortho cases — especially for kids — often involve two parents or a co-signer, adding delay points a follow-up system needs to track.

Built for long-consideration ortho cases

Long-cadence follow-up scheduling

Set monthly or quarterly follow-up for cases with a longer natural decision timeline.

Financing links

Send the in-house payment plan link right when a family needs it to move forward.

Case-specific templates

Outreach built around what typically holds up an ortho start, not generic messaging.
