Help Center · Getting Started
Signing in for the first time
Welcome to Rebrief. There are two ways to get started: create a brand-new account for your own clinic, or accept an invite from a clinic that already uses Rebrief. This guide covers both, plus signing in and resetting your password.
Note: Rebrief is organized around clinic workspaces. Before the app unlocks, your account has to belong to a clinic — either one you create during setup, or one you join through an invite link.
If you have an invite link
If a colleague or your office administrator invited you, you'll get a link by email. Opening it is the fastest way in, because it connects you to their clinic automatically.
- Open the invite link from your email. Rebrief checks the link and loads your invitation.
- Confirm your details. Your email is filled in for you and can't be changed (it's the address that was invited). Enter your full name.
- Create a password (at least 8 characters).
- Choose your defaults: your tooth notation (FDI or Universal) and your probing protocol (Maxillary First, Facials First, or a custom order). You can change these later.
- Select Accept invite. Rebrief creates your account, signs you in, and takes you straight to your dashboard.
Tip: Already signed in on a different account in this browser? You can still open the invite link — accepting it signs you out of the current account and signs you in as the invited one.
If you see a message that the link is invalid or expired, ask whoever invited you to send a fresh one. From that screen you can also select Go to sign in if you already have an account.
If you're creating a new account
Use this path when you're setting up your own clinic for the first time.
- Go to the sign-up screen — from the sign-in page, select Signup for an account.
- Enter your full name, email, and a password (at least 6 characters).
- Select Create Account.
After your account is created, Rebrief asks you to finish setting up before the rest of the app opens:
- Enter your clinic name.
- Choose your specialty from the list.
- Pick your tooth notation (FDI/ISO or UNS) and your probing convention (Maxillary First, Facials First, or a custom order).
- Select Finish setup.
Your browser may ask for your location so Rebrief can map your clinic. This is optional — you can decline it, and setup continues normally.
Once setup is complete, the dashboard unlocks and you're ready to work.
Signing in
When you return, open the sign-in page and use whichever method you set up:
- Email and password: Enter your email and password, then select Log In.
- Sign in with Google or Sign in with Microsoft: Select the matching button and follow the prompts in your Google or Microsoft account.
If a Google or Microsoft sign-in is cancelled or doesn't finish, you'll come back to the sign-in page with a message — just try again.
Resetting your password
Forgot your password? You can request a reset from the sign-in page.
- Select Forgot password?
- Enter the email address for your Rebrief account.
- Select Send reset link.
If an account exists for that email, Rebrief sends a secure reset link. Open it, choose a new password, and you'll be returned to sign in — where a confirmation message lets you know the reset worked.
Note: For security, the same confirmation appears whether or not an account exists for the email you entered. If no reset email arrives, double-check the address and confirm the account was created with an email and password.
If you can't get in
- Invite link won't open or says it expired: Ask the person who invited you to resend it.
- Account says it's disabled: Contact your clinic administrator — your access may have been removed.
- Sign-in keeps failing: Confirm you're using the right email and password, or use Forgot password? to reset it.
