Flute x AAP

Proud partner of the American Academy of Periodontology

For your patients, a visit is never just a visit. It's the relief of finally addressing a problem they've put off, the confidence that comes from trusting a specialist's hands, and an outcome that gives them a healthier smile for years to come. The practices that set themselves apart understand that and build everything around it.

Flute was built for periodontal practices: secure, reliable, and designed to stay out of the way, so the care you deliver carries through to every visit.

Why periodontology practices choose Flute. With Flute, payments fade into the background, so you can focus on the care you've built your practice around.

Understanding your processing statement

Processing statements can change over time. Some processors introduce new or updated fees that show up as additional line items on merchant statements. These changes aren't always clearly communicated and can be easy to overlook.

Flute offers free statement reviews to help members: 

  • Understand their current fees. 

  • Identify changes that have been added over time.

  • Get straightforward answers to billing questions.

No obligation — the goal is transparency.
