Dental practices can benefit from their patients’ positive experience. Ensuring that your patients only have praises for your clinic will boost your practice’s reputation, thereby attracting more customers and, consequently, increasing your revenue.

Handpieces are some of the most important tools in a dentist’s employ and though designed to last, they can deteriorate prematurely when not maintained properly. Faulty handpieces can reduce your efficiency and make treatment an unpleasant experience for patients.

Thanks to technology, dental practices have vastly improved the quality of care that they give patients. In dentistry, innovations are embraced to enhance dental care and provide patients with the best experience possible.

Here are five of the most promising technology trends in dentistry:
#1. 3D printing
There's so much that dentists can do with a powerful and time- and cost-saving technology like 3D printing.

Technology has become an important part of every modern business, including dental practices. Using the right software, you can increase employee productivity, boost operational efficiency, and regain control over costs. Today, many business applications are cloud-based, which means they are accessible from any device with an internet connection.

In your dental practice, you need to care for your patients, address the needs of your staff, and meet HIPAA compliance requirements, all at the same time. Thankfully, there are powerful technologies and solutions designed to help you achieve these goals.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 

Future Smiles Names Dan Edwards Board President Future Smiles, a nonprofit preventive and restorative dental health program serving Southern Nevada schools, named dental IT businessman Dan Edwards president of its board of directors.

IT solutions and their wide array of tools and applications that now populate the market promise new and effective ways around three of the top challenges faced by today’s dental practices. As an owner of a dental practice, you may be struggling with these issues yourself.

As a dentist, you'll do everything you can to ensure your practice succeeds. A brilliant way to guarantee this happens is to have experts on your side. Managed services providers (MSPs) have the most knowledgeable IT people on their team. When you entrust your IT system to an MSP, your dental practice benefits in the following ways:
#1. A first-class IT system
Your practice has much to gain from an exceptional IT system.

You’re probably thinking, “Who would want to steal data from a dental office?”

Hackers, that’s who. In July 2018, reports revealed that data from over 150,000 National Health Service (NHS) patients was shared over a period of three years. During the same year, a targeted cyberattack on the Singapore government’s health database compromised personal data from 1.5 million patients.

You could say an IT system isn’t nearly as fundamental to dentists as a dental chair is. And yet without a functional IT infrastructure, your dental practice’s ability to serve your patients becomes severely impaired. Lacking an IT system not only limits your staff’s productivity, but it also compromises the security of your patients’ data.
