### "Dentrix Review"

August 23, 2019

4.0

Pros

perfect day sched. images, pt chart, family file

Cons

tx planning, not being able to add an additional tooth in the middle of the tx plan and have to renumber everything custom reports are difficult and not user friendly any time we need service or updates everyone has to be out of the software and tech support hours are not conducive to our hours

### "Useful product"

February 27, 2019

5.0

Overall Dentrix is great. If there is ever a question or help needed with anything you can just get on chat and get it taken care of.

Pros

It does everything, it's basically an all in one product.

Cons

There is a glitch (we are updated to G7) on the month goals where you have to manually go in and put zero on all the other providers that are not part of production for the month goal to show up properly.

### "Dentrix is the gold standard"

October 3, 2017

5.0

Pros

It's easy to navigate, there are so many things that Dentrix can do for your practice that alot of people dont know about. Utilize their training and resource center. If you can learn this software transitioning into any other dental mgmt software will be cake. With the dentrix you have the ability to be completely paperless with ease.

Cons

honestly nothing, I guess if I were to try to come up with something it would be that after you run an update there are always glitches, but they are minor and dentrix fixes them extremely quickly

### "I use Dentrix everyday"

September 19, 2018

5.0

I use this everyday in our clinic. Patient information is easily available. Sending and processing insurance claims and payments is very easy. Customer service access and response is easy either on phone or online.

Pros

All patient information is in one place.

Cons

Because we are a larger training facility, it is sometimes hard to fit in all the providers that we have. This is a work in progress.

### "Not my favorite "

May 4, 2019

4.0

We are able to use the software to help us to become a “paperless” office. I prefer another software brand, however.

Pros

Dentrix has some valuable modules and some good support in the form of an online knowledge base. The online training is a little helpful, also.

Cons

There are many frustrating bugs in each new update and the Dentrix support line is frustrating, many times.

### "I love dentrix"

August 6, 2018

5.0

I use dentrix for my dental practice. It is the only software that i have been using for 10 years. They are constantly updating the software to better your practice.

Pros

This software is so user friendly it makes days at work so much easier. I can use dentrix blind folded thats how easy it is to use. I love all the icons and buttons. You can truly accomplish anything with this software. The reports are great too.

Cons

I don't like the fact that dentrix does not have an area for specialty dentist such as perio. I have no where to log my bone grafts or implants.

### "Great software!"

August 2, 2018

5.0

The program is great! They're customer service is always very helpful and I love that they offer a click to chat!

Pros

There are so many things to love about this product. Probably my favorite thing would be the ease of use!

Cons

I do wish that it were a little easier when there are glitches to fix them without having to have everyone out of the software.

### "Awesome program!"

August 19, 2017

5.0

My day just goes really smooth when I have a dependable program I can depend on day in and day out.

Pros

Very easy to use! I use this program on a daily basis and don't have very many problems. If there is a problem techs get right on it. Dentrix conferences can definitely help you get the training you need as well.

Cons

Occasionally the program will run slow. But we just reboot our system and that usually fixes the problem. I had other concerns however after a weekend of training at a Dentrix conference most my areas of concern were addressed.

### "BBC review"

August 23, 2019

5.0

Love it better than any other software that we have used.

Pros

User friendly design allows for multiple ways to access the same information. Multi-functionality allows for practice analysis and assessment in individual areas as well as the practice as whole

Cons

you cannot double click to access information you have to do a multi-step process.

### "Best Dental Practice Software on the market"

March 26, 2019

4.0

I was originally an easy dental user and found it limited in scope. Dentrix is the gold standard for dental offices

Pros

It was easy to teach to my front desk and we have been using it for the past 15 years thru at least four incarnations of the software. Great Front office and back office capabilities

Cons

integration with other NON Henry Schein Software

### "Dentrix review"

March 23, 2019

4.0

Pros

I used Dentrix daily for a month while locum tenens at another clinic. It was my first time using it and I found it very easy to pick up and learn. I was proficient with it in under a week, more like a couple days. It has all the typical features for charting and notes like cartoon odontogram and streamlined treatment planning/findings. I was surprised at how easy it was to navigate and learn. The scheduling side of it was easy to use as well. I cant speak to the billing aspect of it.

Cons

I cant recommend this as better or worse than similar products. It gets the job done and is fine.

### "Stuff"

August 23, 2019

4.0

Well of course we started off with a pegboard and a pen and paper so obviously just getting a computer program solved the majority of our problems.

Pros

We have been using it for over 20 years so I am just really used to it at this point. I think it is fairly easy to navigate.

Cons

There are several restrictions put on things that I wish were more open ended.

### "Dentrix in a nutshell - excelling in mediocrity"

May 9, 2018

3.0

Helps with paperless office. Once you are used to it, it feels okay.

Pros

There is not much choice in dental software so you end up choosing between 2, Dentrix being one of them. Once you are established, you get used to it, but it never feels seamless or time-saving

Cons

Too numerous to list. Several times we have had to cancel patients b/c their "update" stops all computers from working until it is complete. The CS can be helpful if you get the correct person, but if it is a consistent problem, then you are out of luck.

### "Fewer steps"

August 23, 2019

4.0

It is a functional software that works for running the clinic. Schools should give students detail training in how to use it because it is not a intuitive software. You need to know where to go to find certain functions.

Pros

It was easy to schedule appointment and easy to see patient charts.

Cons

It takes many steps just to change the patient's continue care setup.

### "Manipulative and shady"

January 27, 2021

1.0

Enjoyed for years but lately not so much. We feel very used and abused

Pros

Your practice of eliminating parts of dentrix so that our version no longer is supported is very shady

Cons

The cost is so high the waits for help are so long and our issues always involve $$$$$$

Reason for choosing Dentrix

We've been long time users DON"T BUY THIS PRODUCT !!!

We truly love using Dentrix as our practice management software

Pros

I love this software so much and love all the education features they have for the practice and employees to learn this software.

Cons

The only thing I can say is after updates sometimes it can be hard to adjust. Running into some features not working correctly

August 22, 2019

5.0

Pros

I love how powerful it is, the more information you put into it, the more you are able to get out of it. The constant updates and suggestions from users across the country is a great way to make it perfect for us users.

Cons

that there is no search button in the treatment chart to look up a code by key word.

May 26, 2020

4.0

Dentrix has high functionality and is quite easy to use.

Pros

Dentrix helps the workflow of our clinic and we also utilize it to run reports on different areas of the clinic for analyzing for improvement.

Cons

Access to training on all the features is difficult to access therefore a majority of our staff does not utilize them.

### "This company is horrible and I feel find your software somewhere else. Do not use this company!"

September 7, 2017

1.0

NEVER

Cons

After being pressured to have training by a certain amount of time, we scheduled due to this company pressuring me with an expiration of training and conversion. My Mother was sick with a brain tumor shortly after we purchased the software and they were unwilling to return it. They stated we would have a fee to return and it was in our best interest to hold onto it till we were ready for implement. This was in early September of 2016. My Mom passed March 6, 2017. My father had Pancreatic cancer and was ill. He died on the first day of training August 16, 2017. I was devastated and they could care less. No compassion in this corporation. They were unwilling to train me without a huge fee attached. I'm the dentist and can't use my own software. They would not even consider a price break in the cost of my training after my Fathers funeral. I'm sorry but it actually doesn't get worse than that. I found the departments were disconnected and the entire process frustrating. NEVER BUY DENTRIX. I will be sure to inform ALL my dental colleges and also anyone who asks me about software of their terrible customer service.

### "Dentrix Covers It All"

January 12, 2017

4.0

I have used Dentrix software in several different offices over the past 20 years. It definitely covers everything a dental office needs.

Pros

Dentrix understands the typical dental office and covers the needs adequately.

Cons

It is expensive. It is difficult to use in a very large practice. We have 10 hygienists. There are restraints with customizing and reporting with that many practitioners. Customer service is average. I have experienced far superior customer service, so when I went back to Dentrix, it was very noticeably.

I am pleased with Dentrix overall. I want to see them continue to stay on the cutting edge, with integration, mobile check in etc

Pros

Ease of use with many other programs such as demand force. The integration with other company's we use.

Cons

The variance in reports. The way the same report run in different areas needs to be adjusted

August 24, 2019

Pros

Dentrix is extremely user friendly. The software allows for tracking of almost everything a practice would need to excel. It is by far one of the best designed software programs I have had the pleasure of using.

Cons

The ledger layout. It makes it quite difficult for patients to understand.
