Dentally is a cloud-based practice management tool that allows you to store images online and work with various types of imaging and radiography software locally.

The Dentally imaging bridge lets you easily connect our dental practice management software with your chosen X-ray software solutions. With just one click, you can quickly open a patient's file in your dental X-ray imaging software; it's incredibly user-friendly. This makes it fast and simple to view your patient's 2D or 3D X-rays and dental images, leaving you more time to focus on your patient's oral health.

We support a number of different types of dental X-ray imaging software for digital images, including 3D images.

How does it work?

To allow Dentally to seamlessly integrate with your dental radiography software, we have designed a small bridge program. You can download and install it in these three steps:

1. ​Install the Dentally Imaging Bridge chrome extension

2. Download the image bridge and run the install script

3. Configure the extension

Once you have done this, you can go to the extensions in your Google Chrome settings menu and select ‘Dentally Imaging Bridge’. A popup window will then open with a list of imaging software for you to select the one you use. This then generates a bridge, so simply fill in the fields and click save.

For most systems, you need to know where the software and the patient images are located in order to configure the bridge.

If you use different types of radiography software at your dental practice, Dentally allows you to set up multiple bridges.

When you go to a patient in Dentally, look for a 'black tooth' icon in the URL bar. Clicking on the icon will quickly open the patient in your imaging software. This seamless process allows you to focus on patient care.

We support many third-party integrations from our dental practice management software, for much more than dental X-ray software. For more information, email hello@dentally.co to arrange a demo of our dental software features.
