### "Dentrix Dental Systems"

December 14, 2018

5.0

The software helps to maintain my dental office finances and patient information.

Pros

Once installed on my server, the software will upgrade all workstations when Dentrix is opened. The program maintains all patient information and files insurance electronically, notifies patients of appointments and of missed appointments. Group email notices or text messages are easily formatted and sent. The ledger is connected to all modules so that patient checking out is seamless.

Cons

large upgrades require enhanced computers on workstations to handle the software.

### "You can manage appointments across multiple dentists, it just takes some time to learn."

March 8, 2018

4.0

Pros

\- Once you learn it, it's pretty easy to read the schedule. - You're able to add the pricing to the services and list the treatment plan. - You can add in when you've received a payment from a patient.

Cons

\- When you try to reschedule someone, it shows a tiny little box on the right that you have to hover over it just to see which appointment it is. When you have many patients needing to reschedule, it takes time to see which patient is which. - I wouldn't leave any very important information there, like social security numbers

### "Solid build, easy to use, great support."

April 18, 2017

4.0

Coming from an environment where there are multiple EHR systems my colleages are often jealous of Dentrix Enterprise. The documentation is thorough, which makes training staff and revising our own manuals a breeze. The software itself very infrequently has problems, and when they occur they are usually resolved within the day.

Pros

Easy to use, easy to setup, very customizable, great support, interfaces with other common software. Out performs our medical and behavioral health software for ease of use, implementation, and regular maintenance.

Cons

A little pricey, especially when getting into Meaningful Use. Would like to see less third-party integrations for meaningful use or more options for third-party integrations. Would also like to see a built in maintenance solution.

### "Great Product"

February 8, 2018

5.0

Great investment.

Pros

Tons of features and functionality. The software is easy to use and intuitive. Even if you don't know where something is you can pretty much deduce where to find it will be there. The costumer service is amazing, and they will always be there for you in case you don't know something. They will guide step by step until you get there.

Cons

There are somethings that can be improved upon, but that's icing on the cake. They even though about that too. You can voice your opinion an tell the developing team what you would like to see in future version and they will add it for you. I think they call it dentrix my voice or something like that...

### "Dentists and Dental Hygienists Love the software"

January 19, 2018

5.0

Dentrix is a great dental software.

Pros

The visual aspects of Dentrix make this a product that provides ease of use. The charting is clear and easy to use. The notes are easy to build for the Dentists and make any amendments.

Cons

The cost of electronic prescribing is high as it is per provider for the feature. Meaningful use is another add on cost rather than being available in Enterprise as a feature.

### "Dentrix has multiple features which make it versatile and competitive."

December 17, 2018

4.0

Pros

User friendly and has multiple features for better navigation and flow. The treatment plan page and dental chart have custom button you can create because everyone has different things that they like on these forms.

Cons

Not a big fan of digital X-rays , I don't like how the image is not crisp and shallow carious lesions don't show up well and can be easily missed. I prefer traditional method of viewing X-rays. Some patients say the digital sensors are uncomfortable and dental assistants say they are hard to use with the Rinn system.

Overall I would say my experience with Dentrix is like a loving marriage. Its not always perfect, we have things we both need to work on, but it looks like we will be together forever! It could be a lot worse! Just kidding, we will live happily ever after!

Pros

The ability to access all sites from one login.

Cons

Insurance component is out dated and difficult to maintain.

### "Not user Friendly, needs a updated look "

June 9, 2017

2.0

Pros

I have no pros about Dentrix compared to other softwares that I have used. I have created a side by side comparison of the use of Open Dental and Dentrix. All features comparison from scheduling, accounts, reports, documents, notes etc. If I had to choose one pro that Dentrix has that Open Dental or Eagle Soft does not have is you can select in the patient's chart if they are English speaking or Spanish speaking.

Cons

Dentrix is not user-friendly. I have used Eaglesoft and Currently Dentrix and Open Dental. Open Dental and EagleSoft are very similar. It is easy to navigate between a patient, account, chart, notes, etc. Dentrix if you search for a patient you have to continue to type that patients name back in to navigate between family file chart etc. You would have to be experienced with both softwares to really see how much easier the use of Open Dental is then Dentrix. All new employees who come in and see the ease of Open Dental love their software. Open Dental has an early 90's outdated Microsoft look.

### "Love the note templates"

August 22, 2019

5.0

Pros

NOTE TEMPLATES! It saves me so much time everyday!

Cons

Numbering the treatment plan takes a long time and organizing multiple treatment plans. Also setting up the printing options for treatment plans is confusing and my defaults often are lost, possibly because we have multiple servers?

It seems to be a good program

Pros

It was easy to pick up when I was new. I wish we could get a training on how to use all the features.

Cons

I don't know all the features I wish more of the stuff here pertained to IHS and the software had all the features the more expensive program had.

### "too many mouse clicks"

August 19, 2017

3.0

EHR development and a paperless dental record.

Pros

no paper record, having an electronic forum really matters. populates interfaced programs with patient data reducing wrong site, wrong patient, issues.

Cons

Six times to select the provider......really! Two times to select the encounter number! you can't be serious! In my arena, I need to interface with a medical record as well as other systems, all those interfaces have been bad to date. Meaningful use? Whose meaningful use? if smokeless tobacco and now marijuana, those need to be included, otherwise, is it really meaningful? The reports are lacking, we need more adhoc reports based on all the structured that is captured.....why do we need a third party program to do this! Interfaces with other applications is dicey at best, i.e. iMedConsent. Why is this a problem? Why doesn't Dentrix Enterprise, destined for use with large dental groups, integrate better with other versions/applications run by Henry Schein. They do such great work with philanthropic organizations, why can't they apply that perspective to the various entities of their own companies.

### "Dentrix Enterprise is the one stop shop for Dental Clinics. "

April 18, 2017

5.0

I have been using Dentrix Enterprise for eight (8) years. I recommend Dentrix for these reasons Tech Support is knowledgeable, responsive, and professional Compatible with many x-ray sensors Features are current and are user friendly

Pros

The feature I like most about Dentrix is how it is accessible from both onsite and at offsite locations.

Cons

I wish that the Dentrix Client Version would auto upgrade after upgrading the Dentrix Server. Other than that, I have no complaints.

### "Use this application daily with my patients. "

June 23, 2017

5.0

Pros

Once you get used to all of the buttons, the software is easy to use. I like the many options to customize for each office.

Cons

Often, there are too many "clicks" sometimes I Junk the computer should be smarter but you have to tell it things it should already know. For example, make an appointment but then you have to change the date on the cc. It doesn't always save it.
