More detail on REWARDS for different DCPs and Practices
I made the App for me and my patients with my views on prevention, and this was to reinforce it. It worked well for me, it could for you. The reason for the App as opposed to a website, is the interaction with the user who can personalise it. It's an MVP, a minimal viable product and the idea is that while not perfect it demonstrates how iteratively a product can improve, and more importantly be useful.
Since retiring, following the eighteen months experience I have had trying to engage the NHS though talking to seven AHSNs, and engaging the Orcha application process. It would be useful to share. I have had support through OUTSET, Innovate edge uk, and Design for Growth and following interviews with DCPs, and the public the reality is that while it works well for most individual DCPs and there patients, to continue to improve the App platform needs rebuilding to allow it to be customised further for the DCP, and allow a language selection, plus further user history, and a more intuitive design. The crowdfunding will help kickstart and help maintian the process for all our benefit. To guarantee our treatment for longer we neeed the user to take ownership of their health and stay in the green. As well as your financial support it would be useful to have your feedback.

WHAT"S IN IT FOR ME?
As a DCP or HYGIENIST the App if free. It is free with the hope you will share it and promote sharing it for those we don't see through social media. It has three fixed services, and you can set up your online presence in about ten minutes. While there are only three fixed default services on your profile, these can be changed. So as well as promoting your tooth whitening, you could add a different aspect of your life, such as promoting your Zumba lessons or dog walking. The more its used, the more likely we will help save our valuable NHS resources.
If you sign up, you will be able to use the calendar when it's developed, until the two year period has passed.
As a DENTAL ASSOCIATE or DENTAL THERAPIST, you can promote your services further, and with a future version, be able to customise it further. If we share our knowledge and experience, we can educate the public so that dental access improves and we can carry out general dentistry to a high standard rather than work defensively to the detriment of our health and wellbeing and that of the public.

There are a few practices interested in having their App. The difference between the App and a website is that the patient can personalise the App for themselves, and it is GDPR compliant. If you have a website you can add links to the online booking and prices, but the dentists can personalise the pages a lot more and promote their services. If you don't have a website, this will be cheaper. Those who contribute now will get a practice template at 50% of the version's cost when it is launched. We don't all need expensive websites, we can collaborate and get something that works well for most of us.
This was from about 6 years ago. As a member on the LDC for 25 years, little changes. It is economy of effort, and finance with a little coordinated effort.
