An Argument for the Web
#9: You can rest well, knowing your data is being backed-up, even if your office manager calls in sick.

Scary thought. Every office has one person responsible for backing up your patient data. So what happens if that person doesn't make it to the office. Do you just play chicken with fate and hope your server doesn't crash that day, or you're hit with a nasty virus or something else that corrupts your database? When you switch to Curve Dental you never worry about backing up your patient data. It doesn't matter who makes it the office or not. Your data is backed up every hour in multiple location in professionally maintained and managed data centers. There's a better approach to dental software and it's called curve Dental. Call 888-910-4376 to schedule a demonstration.

Get a Move On!

Power Thought Linda Drevenstedt

If you're a little concerned by your productivity numbers, take a moment to ask these six important questions:
  1. Look at your practice's neighborhood. Is it a vibrant area or dying?
  2. Look at your building. Is it dark and somber or crisp and inviting?
  3. Look at your reception room furniture. Is the furniture nice and firm or "rump" sprung?
  4. Look at your decorating. Is it chic or just clutter?
  5. Look at the stains on your ceiling. Should there be stains on the ceiling?
  6. Look at your baseboards and carpets. Does the carpet look plush and clean? Are the baseboards unmarked?

If your answers to these questions are, for the most part, on the negative side of things maybe its time to move on. Don't stay too long in an old facility.  NOW is the time (rent and property are more affordable) to move along and position your practice to reflect the quality dentistry you deliver

The Web Connection
Ask yourself one more question: In an era where a good portion of your patients are digital natives, what's going to impress them more? Stuffy, old fashioned client-server software or Web-based dental software from Curve Dental? You must remember that when it comes to branding your practice everything about your practice is creating an image: You, your team, your building, your equipment, and your software.
You Know It's Time to Change When...
Time to Switch
A wise man once said: If there's a rock in your shoe, stop walking and remove the rock from your shoe. The going is so much easier thereafter.

The same is true for dental software. If your current software is causing you pain and frustration, then stop and make the switch.

Here's seven reason why it might be time for you to switch:
  1. Your server crashed. Again. How many times must it crash again before you make a commitment to throw it out?
  2. You're caught in update purgatory. How much must you spend on new hardware again to accommodate a new update before you decide enough is enough?
  3. Your IT guy drives a Benz. He's a very nice and capable guy. But maybe you're spending too much in trying to keep a dying technology alive?
  4. You're not a rocket scientist. If your current software takes forever to learn, then maybe something's not quite right.
  5. You're a MAC. She's a PC. If your dental software is one or the other, but you're wishing it were something else, then maybe the time has come to look around.
  6. New practice. New start. If you're working to hang your shingle there's never a better time to switch.
  7. You're growing. Your software is not. If your dental software is slowing you down, then throw it out.
