Brussels, Belgium, May 23, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --
Description:
Dental practice management software is a class of software solution that helps dentists and healthcare professionals to supervise their day-to-day activities/operations. Key features of the software are online appointment bookings, accounting & report generation, e-billing, insurance claiming, e-prescription facilities & dental imaging, and patient communication.
Integration of Digital Imaging with Dental Practice Management Software Drives the Market
With the introduction of digital radiography and software solutions, the trend of integrating digital imaging capabilities with dental practice management software is gaining popularity. The software when integrated with digital imaging helps dentists to create x-ray images of gums, teeth, and study patients' dental conditions using digital X-rays, and simultaneously perform treatment planning.
A Shift towards Cloud-based Dental Practice Management Software
Today’s dental practice is moving toward digital integration. The cloud-based software model is expected to grow significantly in the coming years due to its flexibility, affordability, efficiency, security, scalability, user-friendly features, and automatic software updates. Also, browser-based cloud software can be used across multiple locations and platforms, including smartphones, tablets, desktops, windows, android, and apple products, among others.
“Cloud offers a flexible, scalable environment at a lower cost than on-premise deployments but still a majority of dental practice management software solutions are currently implemented on-premise due to security, control, and privacy reasons. However, the trend is shifting towards hybrid cloud-based software solutions.” - Executive Chairman, Dental Practice Management Software Company, US

These factors are likely to hamper the dental practice management software market growth.
North America Leads the Adoption of Dental Practice Management Software Market
North America commanded the largest share of the market, followed by Europe and APAC. The large share of North America can be attributed to the increased adoption of digital solutions within dental practices, new regulatory standards, technological advancements in dental practices, and the presence of key market players in the region.
