The DX-20: Digital Patient Experience Self-Benchmark
How does your practice look to a prospective patient? Score yourself on The Dental Board’s published 20-item instrument — every check observable, every weight disclosed — and leave with a graded report card plus your five highest-leverage fixes. About four minutes. No black box: “Not sure” is excluded and flagged, never guessed, and this site scores no one — the observations, and the grade, are yours.
Setup
Three quick facts. None of them changes your score — they change how the report reads: who fixes what, and which pillars the interpretation leads with.
How many locations does the practice have?The DX-20 is a per-location instrument. Multi-location practices score each location separately — never an average.
Who runs your website day to day?Routes each website fix on your report to the right desk: vendor request vs. in-house assignment.
Primary growth goal right nowWeights which pillars the written interpretation emphasizes. It does not change the score.
