IT built for HIPAA, Dentrix & Eaglesoft uptime, and a 2-hour standard first response
Atlanta dental offices — solo practices in Buckhead, multi-location groups off Peachtree, oral-surgery clinics in Midtown, family dentistry teams across Cobb and Gwinnett — trust us with the infrastructure that decides whether a hygiene appointment, a crown delivery, or an insurance claim lands on time. One flat monthly rate covers HIPAA-grade backup, EDR on every operatory endpoint, ransomware defense, and a 2-hour standard first-response commitment across the metro — no per-ticket billing, no surprises.
Where dental practices feel the IT pressure
HIPAA expects your systems to guard patient records with the same care your charts do — and ransomware operators expect your front desk will hand over a key under deadline. These are the gaps we close before the next Monday morning.
HIPAA-compliant patient data protection
Chart-level encryption, conditional access on the Microsoft 365 tenant, BitLocker on every endpoint — chairside tablets, front-desk kiosks, hygiene-laptop carts — and named-device policies the practice manager (your HIPAA Security Officer) can read on a single page.
Dentrix & Eaglesoft uptime
Your practice-management server — local or hosted — is the system of record for charting, billing, and insurance claims. We test the identity and network paths the way a court-day filing gets tested, because an unplanned outage kills a Monday morning’s schedule and a week of claims.
Digital X-ray & imaging system reliability
Sensor workstations, imaging-server storage retention, exports to insurance and referrals, intra-oral cameras — all backed up on a path independent of the imaging vendor’s “we’ll handle it” hands-off default, so you aren’t the one explaining a lost pano at a specialist’s office.
Ransomware defense
Dental is a top ransomware target — small staffs, intermittent patching, and per-record breach costs that run into the four figures. Immutable off-host snapshots and quarterly restore drills isolate an attack from your charts and your Monday morning.
2-hour standard first response across the Atlanta metro
Buckhead, Midtown, Cobb, Gwinnett, Fulton, DeKalb — on-call staff already inside the perimeter. Remote-hands first, on-site third, named engineer on the ticket from the first call so the practice manager isn’t explaining the office layout twice.
Patient communication & insurance-claim continuity
Phone systems, patient portals, clearinghouse integrations — downtime costs revenue, trust, and missed claim windows. We instrument every link in the patient-contact and claims-submission chain so you see a failure before the front desk feels it.
Everything a dental practice needs from managed IT
From endpoint protection to HIPAA-grade backup to imaging retention to flat-rate billing — one provider, one monthly fee per chair, zero per-ticket surprises.
Endpoint protection & patching
EDR + BitLocker on every practice endpoint — operatory chairs, front desk, hygiene carts, the office manager’s laptop — with monthly endpoint-baseline reviews and patch windows scheduled around your production schedule.
HIPAA-grade Exchange + OneDrive backup
Encrypted, immutable off-host backups for the Microsoft 365 tenant — mailboxes, shared calendars, OneDrive chart libraries — with quarterly restore drills. The same posture that backs the Atlanta Dental Group case study, applied to your locations.
Secure file storage & DLP
Encrypted cloud drives with sensitivity labels for chart data, data-loss-prevention that blocks PHI from leaving to personal accounts or USB drives, and a single intake flow for referrals and insurance attachments.
Identity & MFA management
Conditional access + hardware-token MFA on every Microsoft 365 identity — including the front-desk info@ mailbox — so a departing hygienist’s access is revoked within minutes. Built for high-turnover dental staffing.
Imaging system backup & retention
Independent backup path beside the imaging-vendor default — sensor data, pano and ceph exports, intra-oral photos — with a documented retention window your oral surgeon and your referrers can both rely on.
Flat-rate managed IT
One monthly fee per chair, per location — covers every endpoint, every identity, and every after-hours ticket. No per-ticket billing, no surprise invoices when a Monday morning incident takes a hygienist station offline.
