Ortho2 Edge 5

Ortho Computer Systems recently announced the release of its cloud‐based Edge 5. This new version of Edge features deeper integration with their patient centered Practice Connect mobile app and Patient Rewards features. In addition, Edge 5 includes countless enhanced features and improved functionality designed to optimize the efficiency of the practice.

Now Edge users can enhance their practice with the use of Patient Rewards and Practice Connect. Patient Rewards allows users to calculate points and track rewards offered as incentive to motivate patient attendance, treatment cooperation, oral hygiene, and more. The Practice Connect app is branded with your practice name, logo, and customizable content for your patients and parents. Practice Connect is available for both Android and iOS devices and builds on Ortho2’s library of practice and patient focused apps.

Edge users can now also customize the content and layout of the Home ribbon bar by including only the icons used most frequently, and making the icons larger or smaller. In addition, users can add words into custom dictionaries and use spell check in the Notepad, Treatment Hub, and Treatment Plan.

Edge 5 also features a custom text box in the Treatment Findings for additional text for each finding. Additionally, the Help topics have been centralized in one location in the Home ribbon bar. From this button users can easily access videos, white papers, online help, and even contact our Software Support Team through email.

“Edge 5 showcases some exciting new enhancements,” said Dr. Craig Scholz, Ortho2’s director of emerging technologies. “Every upgrade we make further demonstrates our focus and commitment to helping our orthodontic partners succeed. We’re working hard to make certain Edge 5, our fully cloud‐based software, increases efficiency and profitability for orthodontic practices. It’s part of Ortho2’s proven track record of listening to our customers and providing innovative solutions for orthodontic practices.”

In addition to offering complete practice management, imaging and communication systems, Ortho2 also offers several independent modules including Edge Imaging, Premier Imaging and Edge Animations.
