  • All-in-one model means no option to use only specific features separately

Denticon

  • Planet DDS publishes no price for Denticon: the product page gives no per location fee, no per provider rate and no minimum, and routes buyers to a demo request or a sales phone call
  • The product is positioned for DSOs and multi location dental groups rather than single practices
