Why dental practices depend on strong IT support
Modern dental practices run on technology. Your practice management software — whether that’s Open Dental, Dentrix, Eaglesoft, or another platform — holds your schedule, patient records, imaging, and billing. When any of it goes down, your whole day stalls.
Dental practices also handle protected health information every day, so your IT environment needs to support HIPAA compliance: encrypted backups, monitored networks, patched systems, and security controls that stand up to scrutiny.
Many practices host Open Dental themselves on an in-office server or workstation, or work with a third-party cloud hosting provider. Either way, your practice still needs dependable dental IT support underneath it all — a team that keeps your systems running, your data backed up, and your security tight, so your staff can focus on patients.
Whole Technology builds customized technology solutions for dental practices — reliable systems that are completely yours, not shared with other practices. Bring your dental practice into the modern era with the latest tech, at a reasonable cost.
For dental practices running Open Dental, Dentrix, Eaglesoft, or similar software, solid IT support is a no-brainer. Stop losing sleep at night worrying about a failed server, a ransomware attack, or patient data walking out the door on aging hardware.

Open Dental in the cloud, hosted on Microsoft Azure
Alongside managed IT support, Whole Technology also hosts practice applications in the cloud. We run your applications in Microsoft Azure using Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) — a secure, geo-redundant platform you can access from anywhere, set up with HIPAA in mind.
This is the same approach we already use for accounting clients running Thomson Reuters UltraTax in Azure, and it is now available for dental practices running Open Dental. Read how we did it in our Azure Virtual Desktop case study.
Cloud hosting is scoped per practice — contact us for a quote. For our managed IT pricing, see our transparent pricing page.
