DentalDNA by Molar Town
A dental record written for the person it belongs to.
Most people leave the dentist with a receipt and a rough memory of what was said. At Molar Town you leave with the whole thing: what was found, what the pictures show, what’s recommended and why, what can wait, and what to ask next — in plain language, checked by Dr. McQuirter before it reaches you. That report is DentalDNA.
The software underneath is being built now and will grow with the practice. Version one of DentalDNA is Dr. McQuirter, curating every report herself.
The idea
From “just trust me” to “let me show you.”
Your dental record already exists. It’s just written for the wrong reader. The chart is for the dentist, the codes are for the insurer, and an x-ray is a gray rectangle until someone explains it.
DentalDNA takes the same findings, after Dr. McQuirter has reviewed them, and writes them for you. Not a shorter version — a readable one. The distance between what a dental team knows and what a patient carries home is where trouble starts: treatment agreed to without understanding it, or put off because nobody said what waiting would cost. This closes that distance.
DNA is a record you were born carrying, and for most of history nobody could read it. Your teeth are among the most durable records your body keeps. DentalDNA is that record, made readable, and handed to the person it belongs to.
After every visit
What goes home with you.
Not a summary you’re handed and forget. A record you’ll open again.
The report, in plain language
What was found. What the pictures show. What’s recommended, in what order, and why. What’s urgent, what can wait, and what to ask before you decide. Every line read and approved by Dr. McQuirter before you see it.
Your images
High-quality digital copies of your x-rays, photos, and scans. Yours to keep, yours to send.
Your materials, down to the lot number
For anything placed in your mouth — a filling, a crown, bonding, a medication — the brand, the lot number, the expiration date, and the shade matched to your teeth. If it ever needs checking or replacing, the answer is already in your hands.
Your history, over time
Each visit adds a chapter: what changed, what didn’t, what’s being watched. In a few years you’ll hold something almost nobody has — a dental history you can read.
A second opinion, the minute you want one
Email your records yourself. No phone tag, no waiting weeks for a file transfer, no starting over from scratch.
Dr. McQuirter isn’t aware of another office that hands patients this level of detail — so she built one.
Step by step
How a visit becomes a report.
The visit
An exam, imaging, a conversation, a plan — the appointment you came for.
The clinical work
Dr. McQuirter reads the images and the findings the way she always has. Nothing about this step changes.
The plain-language draft
Her findings are written up for you: what was found, what the pictures show, what’s recommended, when, and why. Today she does this herself. The software is being built to draft it for her, so her time goes to checking it rather than typing it.
Her sign-off
She reads every line, fixes anything that isn’t right, and approves it. Nothing reaches you that she hasn’t checked.
Your copy
It goes home with you — to read tonight, or next year, or to forward to another dentist for a second opinion.
The next chapter
Every visit adds to the same record. It keeps growing, and it stays yours.
Who’s building it
A dentist, inside her own practice.
Dental software is usually built a long way from the chair. DentalDNA is being built by a dentist with twelve years in one, inside a practice she designed around the same idea — that patients should understand their care and own their records. The tool and the practice are growing up together, so the tool has to work on real visits, for real patients, from the first day the doors open.
She shares the work as it happens — the demo, a sample report, and the thinking behind both — at dianamcquirter.com.
Drawn on purpose
The limits are part of the design.
It explains. It doesn’t diagnose.
A licensed dentist finds, decides, and signs off. DentalDNA puts that into words you can read. It never diagnoses on its own, and it never makes a treatment decision.
Nothing reaches you unchecked
Every report is read, corrected where needed, and approved by Dr. McQuirter before it’s shared.
Simpler words, same facts
It makes the language plain, not the findings. Nothing gets softened to sound nicer.
A companion, not a replacement
Not for your dentist, not for her judgment, and not for the clinical chart she keeps.
Not connected, yet
It isn’t a live diagnostic product and isn’t linked to any outside software — on purpose, at this stage. When it does connect to anything, it starts read-only and goes no further without a proper review.
Your consent, every time
Your information is shared only when you say so, and handled under a real privacy review. Always.
