Henry Schein, distributor of healthcare products, and Reputation.com, an online reputation management company from Silicon Valley, have recently joined forces to improve patient experience in dental practices.

The two companies recently announced that their collaboration has brought about a new practice management solution for dental practitioners.

Reputation.com has teamed up with Henry Schein to provide “Reputation.com for Dentists.” This site will allow dental practices running on Henry Schein’s Dentrix® G5 to utilize patient feedback through online reviews.

Reputation.com for Dentists gives practitioners the resources to manage reputation analysis independently or with the help of Reputation.com experts. It also allows practices to use in office kiosks, so patients can write reviews in the waiting room.
