This DSO has general dentistry and multi-specialty practices within the organization.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"_04xlpA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"><span class=\"JsGRdQ\">By switching to Denticon practice management solution by Planet DDS, Progressive Dental Management was able to leverage cloud-based Denticon to scale with the growth of the DSO, increase collaboration, and improve the patient experience.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"_04xlpA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"><span class=\"JsGRdQ\">\u201cDenticon has been a huge win for us. Having a cloud-based solution took away the bottleneck of servers. I had spent so much time, money, and resources building infrastructure but I realized it starts with the practice management solution.<\/span><span class=\"JsGRdQ\"> You need to start with a practice management solution like Denticon that can scale with you. It\u2019s so important to focus on where you want to be tomorrow, not just today,\u201d explained Dmitry Burshteyn, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Progressive Dental Management.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"_04xlpA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"><span class=\"JsGRdQ\">Building a Partnership<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"_04xlpA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"><span class=\"JsGRdQ\">As Progressive Dental Management looked at different practice management solutions, they conducted extensive research to determine whether the solution was right for their organization and also to ensure that the team behind the solution was also a good fit.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"_04xlpA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"><span class=\"JsGRdQ\">\u201cWhat I loved most about the Denticon team was that it wasn\u2019t about them trying to make a sale. My team and I had 100 questions; they had 101 answers, which helped me feel much more comfortable. We\u2019ve had many thoughtful <\/span><span class=\"JsGRdQ\">conversations between the Denticon team and Progressive Dental Management. They believed in us, and they invested in our growth.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"_04xlpA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"><span class=\"JsGRdQ\">Finding a Solution Designed for Growth<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"_04xlpA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"><span class=\"JsGRdQ\">Progressive Dental Management needed to find a solution that could scale from 10 to even 100 practices. With this in mind, Dmitry focused on cloud-based practice management solutions that could easily scale with the growth of Progressive Dental Management.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"_04xlpA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"><span class=\"JsGRdQ\">Meeting the Needs of Providers and Staff<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"_04xlpA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"><span class=\"JsGRdQ\">Progressive Dental Management needed a practice management solution that would empower the entire organization.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"_04xlpA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"><span class=\"JsGRdQ\">\u201cI believe we\u2019ve had strong growth because we\u2019ve listened to the needs of our providers, clinical staff, and support staff. It\u2019s a team effort. Denticon helped with this tremendously because it\u2019s designed to meet the needs of DSOs, dentists, and staff. They believed in Progressive Dental Management,\u201d said Dmitry of his experience with the Denticon team.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"_04xlpA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"><span class=\"JsGRdQ\">&#8220;I only wish we had begun using with Denticon from the very beginning. The cloud capabilities of Denticon are what has allowed us to grow at this rate.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"_04xlpA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"><span class=\"JsGRdQ\">Benefits of Centralization<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"_04xlpA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"><span class=\"JsGRdQ\">Denticon has also helped enable more collaboration among the providers at Progressive Dental Management.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"_04xlpA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"><span class=\"JsGRdQ\">\u201cDenticon has allowed for more <\/span><a class=\"JsGRdQ\" draggable=\"false\" href=\"https:\/\/www.planetdds.com\/blog\/internal-referral-management-with-denticon\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">collaboration between providers, specifically specialists<\/a><span class=\"JsGRdQ\"> when receiving referrals. With the cloud platform, specialists who hadn&#8217;t yet seen the patients could review patient records and X-rays from anywhere to prepare for upcoming appointments.\u201d said Dmitry.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"_04xlpA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"><span class=\"JsGRdQ\">\u201cWith Denticon being cloud-based, all our specialists are able to go online and review everything beforehand, so they\u2019re ready to go, knowing exactly what they\u2019re going to do when the patient arrives. This has really helped us with how we deliver care to patients.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"_04xlpA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"><span class=\"JsGRdQ\">Connecting offices on <\/span><a class=\"JsGRdQ\" draggable=\"false\" href=\"https:\/\/www.planetdds.com\/blog\/why-every-dso-should-centralize-with-a-cloud-based-practice-management-solution\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">one centralized system<\/a><span class=\"JsGRdQ\"> has helped Progressive Dental Management offer a <\/span><span class=\"JsGRdQ\">better patient experience throughout all of their <\/span><span class=\"JsGRdQ\">offices. Centralizing has helped Progressive Dental Management maintain a single record for each patient, accessible from all locations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"_04xlpA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"><span class=\"JsGRdQ\">\u201cPreviously, it wasn&#8217;t as smooth of a process when a patient moved and went to a different office within our organization. Now, with Denticon, it doesn\u2019t matter which office patients visit because we have everything accessible at each location. It\u2019s easier for us and a much better experience for our patients.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"_04xlpA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"><span class=\"JsGRdQ\">Recommending Denticon<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"_04xlpA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"><span class=\"JsGRdQ\">For organizations looking for a solution that can scale, Dmitry recommends taking time <\/span><span class=\"JsGRdQ\">to research any solution to ensure a good fit.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"_04xlpA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"><span class=\"JsGRdQ\">\u201cWe\u2019ve opened several offices this year and it\u2019s been really amazing. It is probably one of the easiest things we do when we first open a practice.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"_04xlpA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"><span class=\"JsGRdQ\">\u201cObviously, I\u2019m very excited about Denticon. I think it\u2019s been a great solution that\u2019s allowed my company to grow tremendously.<\/span><span class=\"JsGRdQ\"> But that\u2019s because my team and I took the time and energy to research what I wanted to get out of Denticon,\u201d said Dmitry. \u201cSo, I would recommend asking questions so you can really understand the power of what Denticon can do to help your office or organization grow.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Download the case study: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.planetdds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/V3-Progressive-Dental-Case-Study-June-2022.pdf\">Progressive Dental Case Study-Denticon Client Success<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":7529,"template":"","categories":[1561,379],"tags":[],"content-type":[],"product":[],"class_list":["post-7002","client_stories","type-client_stories","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-case-study","category-denticon"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.planetdds.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/client_stories\/7002","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.planetdds.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/client_stories"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.planetdds.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/client_stories"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.planetdds.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7529"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.planetdds.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7002"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.planetdds.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7002"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.planetdds.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7002"},{"taxonomy":"content-type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.planetdds.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/content-type?post=7002"},{"taxonomy":"product","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.planetdds.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product?post=7002"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
