Using eDossea helps you share patient
information safely and easily.
A
specialist has requested X-rays and other patient
information from your dental office. Your office uses
an unencrypted email program, so email isn’t an
option. What do you do?
If you’re a Dentrix dentist, you call eDossea or go to www.
edossea.com. In 15 to 20 minutes, you can be trained on
eDossea and set up to safely share patient information
with the requesting
specialist. All you need is
an Internet connection.
With eDossea, you don’t
have to install software,
and neither do your
recipients.
Figure 1 Click the DentriXlink button on the
Dentrix toolbar to access eDossea.
If you’re using Dentrix G5
or G6, you simply click
on the eDossea icon in
the patient chart toolbar
(Figure 1). You don’t
have to exit Dentrix or
open a separate program
or browser window.
Next, you fill out the data exchange form and select the
recipient from your eDossea address book (Figure 2).
Then, you create a record to input details, and upload the
files you want to share (Figure 3). The files are encrypted
by eDossea and saved in a secure web portal, where your
recipient can log in through the Internet and view your files.
No encryption key is needed, just the security code you
assigned the recipient.
When the recipient opens your file, eDossea sends you a read
receipt with the date and time the file was opened (Figure
4). This confirms that your file was received and prevents
unnecessary resends.
The entire file-sharing process takes only a few minutes.

Seamless Integration
We designed eDossea specifically for dental professionals to
securely exchange electronic records. We wanted to integrate
with Dentrix, and we got certified as a Dentrix Connected
partner as soon as the program was available.
The cloud-based eDossea encryption and file-sharing service
is faster than using encrypted email, and your recipients don’t
