Henry Schein to distribute DEXIS for Dentrix Ascend

CHICAGO - Henry Schein Practice Solutions announced the availability of DEXIS for Dentrix Ascend at this week's 2016 Midwinter Meeting.

DEXIS for Dentrix Ascend is a cloud-based imaging system for Dentrix Ascend users to capture and store images to the cloud, eliminating the need for additional digital imaging software and automating daily procedures such as insurance billing, according to the company.

The software, initially available in North America, offers four benefits, including seamless integration with Dentrix Ascend, enhanced digital workflow, quick access to images from the cloud, and automatic upgrades and backups. In addition, practices no longer need to leave Dentrix Ascend and open a separate application to capture, store, and manipulate images. With the cloud-based system, patient x-rays and intraoral images are available to all authorized devices and users on the system from any location.

The cloud-based system captures original digital images and uploads them (not copies) with almost no loss of quality due to a compression algorithm that provides fast upload speeds to maintain image quality, according to Henry Schein. Once in the cloud, the images can be edited using a variety of tools, including filters, annotation, and density reading.
