Case Study: Dental Practice in Baytown, Texas

January 26, 2026

Challenge: A complete Dentrix server failure brought the practice to a standstill and exposed long-term performance issues.

A Baytown dental practice experienced a full Dentrix server outage that immediately disrupted patient care and made all workstations unusable. The practice had also been struggling with slow system performance, failed syncing with third-party applications, missing X-ray attachments to claims, and patient forms that were not transferring. These ongoing issues created daily workflow obstacles and demanded urgent intervention.

Solution: Allierad IT Solutions restored the server, repaired the software environment, and unified all third-party integrations for dependable daily operations.

Emergency Server Restoration

  • Responded immediately to bring the Dentrix server back online.
  • Cleared 50 GB of space and restored system memory to stabilize the environment.

Dentrix Upgrade and Database Repair

  • Completed an after-hours Dentrix upgrade across all computers.
  • Repaired a corrupt Dentrix database to eliminate ongoing slowness.

Vendor and Integration Support

  • Worked with Lighthouse, Modento, and Rectangle Health to fix syncing issues.
  • Ensured clean and secure communication between Dentrix and all third-party tools.

Hardware Setup and Peripheral Support

  • Installed and configured new printers and credit card terminals.
  • Integrated each device with the network and practice management software.

Expected Results

With the server stabilized, the database repaired, and Dentrix upgraded across the practice, the team can expect smoother operations and faster performance. Consistent syncing with third-party tools eliminates recurring workflow problems. The improved infrastructure supports greater reliability, fewer interruptions, and a more efficient patient experience.
