To do both, you need the right tools to help your dental practices succeed in providing excellent patient care and the right tools to help you manage the business and operations of the DSO. That\u2019s why we built <a href=\"https:\/\/www.planetdds.com\/solutions\/denticon\/\">Denticon Practice Management Solution<\/a> as an all-in-one solution to help your DSO scale and grow. With Denticon, you not only get robust, enterprise-level reporting and analytics, you also benefit from a single patient record and centralized support for functions such as IT, support, billing, insurance, and scheduling.\u00a0 <\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">Harnessing the Power of Centralization\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Centralization through a unified practice management solution can provide a few different benefits for DSOs. Not only does it help bring consistency across all practices within the DSO, but it also increases efficiencies by enabling you to centralize non-clinical functions. Let\u2019s look at six ways centralization benefits DSOs and dental practices.\u00a0 <\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">1) Accessible and reliable\u00a0data\u00a0<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">First, centralizing your data\u00a0means\u00a0having easier access to accurate and reliable data across all offices.\u00a0Unlike third-party tools,\u00a0with\u00a0Denticon, you have one source of truth for all data across the entire organization. There are no errors or delays caused by data synchronization issues, and all data is available to you accurately and in real-time.\u00a0If patients are referred to providers within your DSO, each location has access to a single patient record.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">2)\u00a0Empowers centralization\u00a0of non-clinical functions\u00a0<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Second, centralizing certain non-clinical functions can increase efficiency at the DSO level and each practice location so they can focus on clinical care. This is truly one of the central values a DSO brings to dental practices. So, it makes sense to ensure that the practice management solution used at all locations empowers the centralization of non-clinical functions, including billing, scheduling, insurance, and patient communications.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">With\u00a0Denticon, you can easily centralize these functions to reduce operating expenses and boost efficiencies. By centralizing non-clinical functions, you also free up time for team members at each practice to focus more on patient care, helping improve the patient experience.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">3) Streamlining workflows\u00a0<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Third, by having all offices on the same practice management solutions, you streamline workflows so each office is operating consistently and efficiently. Not only is it important from an efficiency standpoint to have consistent workflows across locations, but it also helps you deliver a predictable and seamless patient experience. From easy cloud-enabled access to images, to accessing patient files, Denticon lets you get the data faster. Completing tasks within Denticon means fewer clicks every hour, every day, across all locations. It\u2019s a better experience for your teams at each location and substantial time savings for your entire DSO. And from a new employee training standpoint, unifying your DSO under one solution means streamlined training through a single vendor. <\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Denticon offers features that help your team streamline appointments with our new <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.planetdds.com\/blog\/smartassist-the-new-interactive-smart-checklist-in-denticon\/\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">interactive checklist SmartAssist<\/span><\/a><span data-contrast=\"none\">.

DSO executives often don\u2019t realize just how much money is being spent on various subscriptions. What might have seemed like relatively inexpensive subscriptions can really add up when compared to\u00a0Denticon\u2019s\u00a0all-in-one solution. Consider how much you spend on online\u00a0scheduling\u00a0platforms, patient communications tools,\u00a0eclaims, cloud-back up service, and more. To discover how much you could save, try\u00a0our\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.planetdds.com\/resource-library\/dental-software-subscription-calculator\/\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">interactive calculator<\/span><\/a><span data-contrast=\"none\">\u00a0to see how\u00a0much\u00a0you spend on subscriptions.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">And, not only from a cost perspective, but multiple vendors also mean dealing with multiple support teams when tools don\u2019t sync properly. With\u00a0Denticon, you receive support from our one experienced support team when issues arise. As\u00a0an added bonus, most of our support team used to work at dental practices, so they have intimate knowledge of the needs of dental practices.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">5) Reducing IT burden\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Denticon also helps you significantly reduce the burden on your IT team by bringing the entire DSO under one unified solution. By bringing consistency across all locations, you drastically reduce strain on your IT team because they no longer need to provide support for multiple solutions that don\u2019t work well together. Denticon also helps you reduce your sole reliance on servers, especially with its integrated imaging solution, XVWeb, which is additional cost savings for your IT spending.
