Webinar

Connected data is key to sustainable growth for DSOs and group practices. By unifying patient records, imaging, and analytics, organizations gain the visibility and control needed to scale smarter. 

In this episode of The Practice Growth Series, COO Evelyn Lahiji shares how Children’s Dental Funzone (CDFZ) built a connected, cloud-based platform with Dentrix Ascend, Jarvis Analytics, Detect AI, and ePrescribe. Learn how CDFZ grew to 18 locations serving 30,000 patients a month, improved same-store performance, and created a repeatable model for future expansion. 

Here's what you'll learn: 

  • How to turn fragmented data (forms, patient records, imaging, analytics) into actionable insights that improve same-store results.
  • Why connected cloud solutions are the foundation for scaling smarter and sustaining same-store growth.
  • How imaging integration fuels accurate treatment planning, stronger RCM outcomes, and higher patient acceptance.
  • Real-world results: improved efficiency, higher treatment acceptance, measurable growth, including a 19% increase in treatment plan value.
