As a seasoned entrepreneur in the dental industry, Halcott has extensive experience with building and growing dental groups, including <a href=\"https:\/\/tfdtemperance.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Tru Family Dental<\/a> (previously acquired by Heartland), and knew the importance of a scalable practice management solution to grow a successful business.<\/span> &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">When he co-founded Seva Dental in 2023, Halcott immediately turned to Planet DDS for its <a href=\"https:\/\/www.planetdds.com\/solutions\/denticon\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Denticon<\/a> practice management solution, recognizing its capacity to streamline operations and enhance <a href=\"https:\/\/www.planetdds.com\/resources\/leveraging-technology-to-improve-patient-experience-and-streamline-dental-operations\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">patient experiences<\/a> across its network of affiliated practices.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-16018d1d wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.planetdds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/CASE-STUDY-Seva-Dental-Team-032125.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Download the Seva Dental Team Case Study<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Streamlining DSO Practice Management&nbsp;<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Prior to implementing Denticon, accessing critical practice information remotely was a huge challenge, leading Halcott to search for a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.planetdds.com\/blog\/the-ease-of-adopting-cloud-based-practice-management\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">cloud-based solution<\/a> that could centralize practice management and optimize performance.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u201cI was building another DSO in 2014, and I knew what I wanted and needed from a software product,&#8221; said Halcott. &#8220;We had to convert thirty offices and did our research when it came to choosing a solution.

Denticon makes it easier to track insurance carriers and align treatment plan estimates with reimbursements. These features enable the business to reduce operational costs with an automated RCM process that improves&nbsp;workflow and saves time.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u201cRCM is generally a challenge within the dental industry because of the complexity of payer plans and credentialing in network and out of network,\u201d Halcott explained. \u201cWith Denticon, you get all the insurance carriers in one place. You can also see providers that have the same plan near your locations. You\u2019re able to increase the efficiency of the revenue cycle process within the practice and leverage that efficiency with better patient service.\u201d&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">A Patient-First Solution for DSOs<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134245418&quot;:true,&quot;134245529&quot;:true,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:360,&quot;335559739&quot;:120,&quot;335559740&quot;:276}\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Denticon became the optimal solution for supporting a high-quality patient experience.

Patients have the ability to do a medical history before they\u2019re in the office. They can get appointment reminder notifications, and they can pay a bill right from their phone.\u201d&nbsp;<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:276}\">&nbsp;<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:276}\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">As the dental industry shifts toward a more consumer-facing business, customer expectations continue to change. \u201cDenticon allows us to fulfill those requirements that patients are looking for,\u201d said Halcott. &#8220;It provides convenience within the platform to make new patient onboarding and new patient connection experiences as positive as possible.\u201d&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Seva leverages Denticon to identify patients needing timely treatments and ensure that dental care is recurring regularly as needed. Using Denticon, teams can easily see who is missing timely treatments and create a campaign to get them back in. \u201cWe want our patients to get the optimal oral health, and we are appreciative that Denticon can help us do that,\u201d said Halcott.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:276}\">&nbsp;<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:276}\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">This patient-centric mindset is a core value of Seva and their commitment to the communities they serve. \u201cOur true north is wanting to be the best practice in every neighborhood we serve,\u201d said Halcott. \u201cWe\u2019re part of the communities, and we want to get that population to optimal oral health because we know that\u2019s connected to long-term health outcomes.\u201d&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Dental Acquisition and Affiliate Integration<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134245418&quot;:true,&quot;134245529&quot;:true,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:360,&quot;335559739&quot;:120,&quot;335559740&quot;:276}\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Seva Dental is an affiliation-based organization that partners with other practices.
