By Fred Michmershuizen, today Staff n Here at the Midwinter Meeting, Henry Schein Practice Solutions, the U.S. practice solutions business of Henry Schein Inc., is announcing the availability of DEXIS™ for Dentrix Ascend® — a cloud-based imaging solution built exclusively for Dentrix Ascend to help quickly capture and store images to the cloud. It’sallaboutcreatinga“digitalclin- ical workflow,” said Adam McDaniel, product manager for Henry Schein, who demonstrated the system dur- ing an interview with today Friday afternoon. As McDaniel explained, DEXIS for Dentrix Ascend eliminates the need for additional digital imaging soft- ware, and it automates daily proce- dures, such as insurance billing, to enhance efficiency and productivity in the dental practice. Accordingtoapressreleaseissued Thursday by Henry Schein, the soft- ware, initially available to users in North America, offers practitioners four key benefits: seamless integra- tion with Dentrix Ascend; enhanced digital workflow; quick access to images from the cloud; and automatic upgrades and backups, thus reduc- ing the need for maintenance and hardware. As McDaniel demonstrated to today, because DEXIS for Dentrix Ascend is built into Dentrix Ascend, practices no longer need to leave Dentrix Ascend and open a sepa- rate application to capture, store and manipulate images. With the cloud-based system, patient X-rays and intraoral images areavailabletoallauthorizeddevices and users on the system from any location, saving time for clinical pro- cedures. In addition to improving produc- tivity and efficiency, the cloud-based system captures original digital images and uploads them (not a copy) with virtually no loss of quality because of a compression algorithm that provides fast upload speeds to help maintain image quality, McDan- iel explained. Once in the cloud, the images can be edited using a variety of tools, including filters, annotation and density reading, he said. According to Henry Schein, users of DEXIS for Dentrix Ascend have been impressed with its capabilities. “DEXISforDentrixAscendhashelped make our practice’s insurance billing more efficient,” said Dr. Mau Nguyen, of Newport Commons Dental Care. “I also really like having the ability to remotely view, with clarity, an X-ray fromanywherewhenconsultingwith patients or colleagues.” exhibitors12 Chicago Midwinter — February 27, 2016 Create a digital clinical workflow with DEXIS for Dentrix Ascend Ad 5 Adam McDaniel, product manager for Henry Schein, demonstrates what DEXIS for Dentrix Ascend can do for dental practitioners during an interview conducted at the Midwinter Meeting.
