Medicasimple bases the selection of the best dental software on specific criteria such as speed, a robust customer support team, regular updates, and facilitation of workflows. It emphasizes that factors like having the right people in the system selection, an increase in patients based on recommendations, effective expense management, and automating processes contribute to winning outcomes.

Today, we come across many articles naming various companies as the "best dental software." These articles often contain general information written to stand out on Google, focusing on competition and other behaviors.Medicasimple is also mentioned in these articles. So, how can we recognize the best dental software without generic statements?

Which is the best dental software?

Although this question is broad and its answer varies for everyone, based on our experiences, I believe the following criteria should be considered in the purchasing process:

- Does it operate quickly?

- Is the customer support team strong, and is there an emphasis on training?

- Is it regularly updated?

*The best example of this is checking the update history on the App Store - Play Store. Updating every few months is definitely not ideal.

Assuming that basic functions are present in all software, once we surpass the above criteria, we need to ask the following questions:

- Does it streamline workflows?

- Does it contribute to financial discipline within the clinic?

- Does it enhance the patient experience?

- Do staff members like using the application?

- Does it alert the clinic owner about any inaccuracies?

**Example 1: A decrease in monthly new patient numbers;

**Example 2: If USS data is not sent

How does a system benefit us?

While there is no established gold standard in this field yet, and systems may vary depending on clinic size, some formulas are universally applicable...

- We win with the right people and systems that make them happy.

- If we attract more patients based on recommendations, we win.

- If we can see gaps in expense management, we win.

- When we automate recurring processes, we win.

- We win when we make lives easier.

Otherwise, appointment reminders, e-invoices, treatment planning are all present in every dental software.
