Overview
axiUm Dental is a dental-school EHR and practice management platform built around patient records, treatment planning, clinical charting, and billing — accessed primarily via on-premise installs or Citrix VPN. HubSpot is a CRM that models contacts, companies, deals, tickets, and custom objects with a defined property schema and association graph. The migration carries axiUm patient demographics, insurance records, provider assignments, and appointment histories into HubSpot contacts, companies, and custom objects. The harder problems are mapping axiUm procedure codes and treatment plans into HubSpot's deal and ticket structures, preserving multi-record associations (patient-to-provider, patient-to-insurance) in HubSpot's N:1 lookup model, and handling axiUm's clinical notes which have no native HubSpot equivalent. We surface those as custom long-text fields or custom objects so your team can rebuild clinical context manually post-migration. The migration runs via API reads from axiUm (CE 7.04+), transformed and validated, then bulk-imported into HubSpot with field-level diff before commit. Delta runs capture any records created or modified during the cutover window, and rollback capability ensures data integrity throughout the process.
Every standard and custom field arrives verified.
AI proposes the map; you confirm before any record moves.
Parent–child, lookups, and ownership stay linked.
Calls, emails, meetings — with original timestamps.
Documents, uploads, and inline notes move with the record.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a axiUm Dental object lands in HubSpot, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
axiUm Dental
Patient
HubSpot
Contact
1:1axiUm patient records (name, DOB, contact info, address, guarantor) map 1:1 to HubSpot contacts. The patient's primary clinic assignment from axiUm stores as a HubSpot custom property. HubSpot contact create date is set from the migration timestamp; original axiUm createdate preserved in Original_Create_Date__c custom datetime field.
axiUm Dental
Patient Insurance
HubSpot
Contact (custom properties)
many:1axiUm patient-to-insurance is a separate related record. Insurance carrier, policy number, group number, and subscriber relationship merge into a set of HubSpot custom contact properties (Insurance_Carrier__c, Policy_Number__c, Subscriber_Relationship__c). A patient's N insurance records collapse to the primary insurance carrier stored on the contact; secondary carriers surface as a custom multi-select or note.
axiUm Dental
Provider / Faculty / Student
HubSpot
HubSpot User
1:1axiUm providers, faculty members, and students map to HubSpot users by email match. axiUm role type (Dentist, Hygienist, Resident, Student) stores as a custom HubSpot user property. Where axiUm users lack email addresses (some student accounts), they are flagged and assigned to a fallback HubSpot user or stored as a custom contact property on the patients they treated.
axiUm Dental
Appointment
HubSpot
Engagement (Meeting) + custom Deal
many:1axiUm appointments (date, time, provider, clinic, type) map to HubSpot engagements with a meeting linked to the patient contact. If the appointment is a treatment visit with a procedure code, a HubSpot deal is also created with the procedure code as the deal name, the appointment date as close date, and the provider as deal owner.
axiUm Dental
Treatment Plan / Procedure
HubSpot
Deal
1:1axiUm treatment plans and completed procedures (ADA codes, tooth numbers, surface designations) map to HubSpot deals. The deal name follows the format 'Procedure: [ADA Code] - [Tooth/Surface]' for clinical specificity. Planned procedures become open HubSpot deals; completed procedures close with the visit date as the close date. Procedure notes from axiUm's clinical record store in a custom long-text field on the deal.
axiUm Dental
Odontogram / Clinical Chart
HubSpot
Custom Object: Dental_Chart__c
1:1axiUm odontogram data (tooth status, surfaces, existing restorations) has no native HubSpot equivalent. We create a HubSpot custom object (Dental_Chart__c) with a lookup to the contact and fields for each tooth surface. The full odontogram state serializes into structured custom properties per tooth or into a long-text custom property for reference. Your dental team rebuilds chair-side visualization using HubSpot's custom object layout editor post-migration.
axiUm Dental
Perio Chart
HubSpot
Custom Object: Perio_Record__c
1:1axiUm perio pocket measurements, bleeding on probing, and recession data map to a HubSpot custom object (Perio_Record__c) with a date-stamped record per patient per visit. Probing depths (6-point per tooth) store as structured numeric custom fields or as a serialized JSON string in a long-text field for reference. Clinical periodontal classification migrates as a custom pick-list property.
axiUm Dental
Recall / Re-Care
HubSpot
HubSpot Workflow (rebuild) + custom property
1:1axiUm recall intervals (6-month hygiene, perio maintenance) have no direct HubSpot equivalent. We preserve recall type and next-due date as custom contact properties (Recall_Type__c, Next_Recall_Date__c). The actual automated recall reminders must be rebuilt as HubSpot workflows or Sequences post-migration using those property values as triggers.
axiUm Dental
Clinical Note / Form
HubSpot
Contact Note + custom long-text property
1:1axiUm clinical notes, medical history forms, and consent records map to HubSpot contact notes with the original note date preserved. Long-form clinical notes that exceed HubSpot's note character limits store in a custom long-text property (Clinical_Note__c). The note's author (provider/student) stores in the note association and as a custom property.
axiUm Dental
Financial Transaction / Billing
HubSpot
Contact custom properties + Deal
many:1axiUm financial transactions (ADA code, amount, insurance payment, patient balance, payment date) map to HubSpot deal line items or to custom financial properties on the contact record. Outstanding balance migrates as a custom currency property (Outstanding_Balance__c). Insurance payment history stores as a custom property or as notes on the contact.
axiUm Dental
Attachment / Scanned Document
HubSpot
HubSpot File + Contact association
1:1axiUm attachments and scanned consent forms, insurance cards, and treatment-plan PDFs migrate to HubSpot Files. Each file associates to the relevant patient contact. File size limits apply — HubSpot's 25MB per file is the ceiling; oversized files are flagged for manual review before the migration run.
axiUm Dental
Clinic / Site Location
HubSpot
HubSpot Company
1:1axiUm clinic and site locations map to HubSpot companies with the clinic name, address, and phone as company properties. Provider lists per clinic store as custom company properties or as HubSpot company associations to the provider contacts. For multi-location dental organizations, each axiUm clinic site becomes its own HubSpot company record, preserving the provider-to-clinic assignment relationships for scheduling and reporting purposes.

Migration approach
Audit axiUm data model and identify migration-eligible records
We extract the axiUm object inventory from your CE 7.04+ instance via the internal API, cataloging patients, providers, appointments, procedures, insurance records, attachments, clinical notes, and any custom fields your institution has configured. We assess data quality (duplicate patients, missing email addresses, null required fields) and produce a data-quality report before any mapping work begins. This step also identifies which axiUm modules (Perio, Forms, Attachments) are in active use so we can scope the custom-object creation correctly.
Design HubSpot schema and custom object structure
Based on the axiUm audit, we design the HubSpot schema: standard contact and company properties, custom properties for insurance and recall fields, and the Dental_Chart__c and Perio_Record__c custom objects with their property schemas. We deliver a schema setup plan so your HubSpot admin creates the custom objects and properties before data lands. We also map axiUm providers and students to HubSpot users by email, flagging any record that lacks an email address for your team to resolve or route to contact properties.
Build field mapping and transformation logic
We build the field-level mapping document covering all 40+ field mappings from axiUm objects to HubSpot properties and custom objects. Transformation logic handles date formats, pick-list value mapping (gender, recall type), tooth numbering conventions, and ADA code standardization. We run a sample migration of 200–500 patient records — spanning patients with full treatment histories, perio records, and attachments — and generate a field-level diff report so you can verify mapping accuracy before the full run.
Execute full migration with delta-pickup window
The full migration runs against your HubSpot portal using the validated field mapping. A delta-pickup window of 24–48 hours captures any axiUm records created or modified during the cutover. We re-upload attachments to HubSpot Files, respecting the 25MB per-file limit and flagging oversized clinical images for your team to handle separately. All migrated records receive the source_system_id__c property linking back to the axiUm record for traceability. Audit logging captures every operation, and one-click rollback is available if reconciliation identifies unexpected gaps.
Deliver recall-rebuild specification and post-migration QA
After migration, we deliver a recall-logic specification document describing how your axiUm recall intervals map to HubSpot workflow triggers using the Recall_Type__c and Next_Recall_Date__c custom properties. We also provide a QA checklist covering record count reconciliation, custom object completeness, owner resolution rate, and attachment coverage. If the delta-pickup window identified in-flight changes, we apply those delta records and run a final reconciliation pass before declaring the migration complete.
