title: Electronic dental records in dentistry.
abstract: A leading consultant on dental practice technology explains the advantages, especially issues of cost in handling paper in the office. A practical approach to replacement of paper as it is used, rather than a comprehensive conversion, is suggested. Common mistakes include converting only part of the office or storing electronic information in different and non-integrated systems.
