Pros

“Just having a look at their latest "ABELDent Cloud Server" and the fully integrated "Patient Communication System", anyone ever involved in dental practice management, or user, can be really impressed!”

Liviu P.

Aministrator and IT

“Administrator/IT (only part-time was needed, great) for a dental practice, using Abeldent since 2000 (yes, over 25 years!)- chose it for being among the few SQL based.”

Liviu P.

Aministrator and IT

“For dentists/owners: this is a software to use your entire carrer and then, one of your best selling points!”

Pros

“Dentrix is user-friendly, keeps patient information organized, and makes scheduling, billing, insurance, and treatment planning more efficient.”

Kayla H.

Dental Assistant and Front Office

“As someone who lives at the intersection of patient experience, practice growth, and operational efficiency, I’ve worked with my fair share of dental practice management systems. But Dentrix is one that consistently delivers the depth and insights a marketing executive like me needs to grow a practice strategically and sustainably.”

Robin W.

Executive Marketing Assistant

“I appreciated that when adding family members, the last name auto-populated, and I loved that multiple windows could remain open at the same time without constantly redirecting me.”

Gwen O.

Specialty Team Manager

Cons

“Occasionally it takes some time to get through to tech support by phone. But this happens with any company.”

Donald M.

Office Manager

“Sometimes there are glitches within the system that don't allow financial notes to be made.”

“the appointments that people have are duplicated on the sheet at the bottom, so that section is not helpful”

Sharon D.

Owner/Reception

Cons

“Transferring X-rays was hard and time-consuming, which could slow down the workflow.”

Gwen O.

Specialty Team Manager

“So many things that I can say that I like lease about Dentrix the ledger and reporting we’re not my favorite in particular with the reporting it’s just not user-friendly they take forever to load, and the ledger itself is just not user-friendly because you do not allocate payments to any procedures, so you really don’t know what the money was for unless you make a note within the payment, which is kind of cumbersome”

Angelika O.

Assistant office manager

“Though I love that I can create note templates, it can be frustrating that you cannot go back when filling out a note template (when using the pop-up questions); sometimes as a busy provider, we forget to check a box or fill out something and having to manually enter it after the fact is annoying.”
