Apteryx

  • No price is published for Apteryx cloud imaging; Planet DDS routes all pricing enquiries to sales or a demo request
  • Practice management is a separate purchase, Denticon or Cloud 9, so imaging alone does not cover charting and billing

  • Limited scope: urgent care only for non-emergency conditions; does not handle hospital-level care or complex surgeries
