What ABELDent is
ABELDent is dental practice management software for scheduling, charting, billing, imaging, and patient communication. It is offered as a cloud solution and as Local Plus, which stores practice data on local infrastructure and leaves security and server maintenance to the customer. ABELDent Cloud manages data in Microsoft Azure and describes encryption in storage and transit, role-based access, activity monitoring, and automated backups. Patient communication includes two-way texting and broadcast messages. Insurance tools include electronic claims, ITRANS attachments, benefit estimates, and RAMQ submission automation for Quebec. ABELDent Scribe creates structured note suggestions from provider–patient conversations for review and approval. The software lists integrations with third-party imaging products. Its Freemium plan costs nothing and is presented for evaluation, smaller or new practices, hygiene practices, and dental education. The plan uses a free Microsoft database; telephone support, individual training, updates, data migration, and premium options are chargeable.
