MacPractice, a developer of practice management and clinical applications for Macintosh computers, is launching MacPractice Endo, a specialized version for endodontists of its flagship product MacPractice DDS, at the American Association of Endodontists meeting in Orlando, FL, this week.
MacPractice Endo includes specialized, customizable, clinical data entry forms for use in MacPractice EDR (electronic dental record), according to the company. Forms that are suitable for being sent to referring dentists are included with placeholders for digital x-ray images. A narrative report can be automatically generated from the completed EDR form. The narrative can also be merged into a letter template addressed to the referring dentist in MacPractice Note.
MacPractice Endo also integrates with MacPractice DR to capture digital x-rays and photos, and quickly and easily incorporate them into Endo Notes templates and clinical forms in the EDR. MacPractice offers native Mac digital radiography interfaces for SuniRay sensors and Planmeca digital sensor, panorama, and cephalometric equipment. MacPractice also supports bridges to virtually every PC digital radiography product, which may be operated on a Mac in Windows in a virtual machine.
Endodontists who are invested in PC digital solutions and want to incorporate MacPractice Endo into their office with less cost can use Aqua Connect Terminal (ACT) on their current PCs in exam rooms, the company noted. ACT makes it possible to use MacPractice on the PC and continue to use PC devices requiring proprietary PC drivers. The ACT implementation requires a Mac OS X Server on a Mac Pro (nondedicated) or Xserve.
"MacPractice Endo is the first of several dental specialty products we will introduce over the next few months. Our mission is to offer every dentist an opportunity to experience the ease of use and dependability of MacPractice software on Apple computers in their office," stated Mark Hollis, MacPractice president, in a press release.
