According to World Bank data, the global aging population is 901 million,and it will more than double in 2030, reaching 2.1 billion. Thus, it is expected that the demand for dental practice management software will increase among dental practices to manage large volumes of their patient data.Analytics, when integrated with dental practice management software, helps gather insights about practice performance, administrative process, patient care, and staff performance. Dental practice management software will play an important role in streamlining the dental practice management processes.
