Real Dental IT Fixes for Practices in the Portland Area

These are real examples of how we helped dental practices recover from failures, stabilize their technology, and avoid unnecessary IT expenses.

Real Technology Improvements for Local Dental Practices

Here are real examples of how AT Consulting has helped dental practices across Beaverton and the Portland Metro area improve reliability, reduce unnecessary costs, and stabilize their technology environments.

New Dental Office IT Infrastructure Setup

Client: Beaverton Kids Pediatrics

We designed and installed the full technology infrastructure for a brand new pediatric dental office.

Instead of installing an expensive physical server, we implemented a cloud based architecture using Archy that provides reliability while reducing hardware costs and ongoing maintenance.

The Result: The practice opened with a modern, secure, and simplified technology environment while avoiding unnecessary server infrastructure and long term IT overhead.

Orthodontic Office Network Rebuild & Cloud Migration

Client: Beaverton Orthodontics (Dr. Tarim Song)

The office was experiencing workstation instability and hardware issues that were impacting daily operations. During our review we discovered the previous IT provider had installed refurbished mini PCs that did not meet Windows 11 hardware requirements.

We replaced the workstations with properly configured systems designed for long term stability and performance.

Recently we rebuilt the network infrastructure and reorganized the technology layout to match the doctor’s chairside workflow.

The Result: We installed custom workstations utilizing ICW monitor mounts on rolling cabinets. The office now operates on stable, properly supported hardware with significantly improved workstation performance and a cleaner network infrastructure.

Avoiding a Costly Hardware Replacement

Client: King City Dental (Dr. Caitlin Chung)

The office was operating on aging workstations that were slowing down daily operations and creating reliability concerns. We replaced every workstation in the practice with new systems and rebuilt the network infrastructure to ensure stable performance for both clinical and front desk workflows.

The Result: The practice now runs on a fully modernized workstation environment with faster performance, improved reliability, and a properly secured network. Staff can work without system slowdowns, and the office now has a stable foundation for future software updates and digital imaging needs.

Emergency Server Recovery for Dental Practice

Client: Cedar Creek Dental (Dr. Phil Han)

During business hours the office server failed unexpectedly, bringing the entire practice to a halt. The original IT provider indicated that data recovery could cost over $10,000 and that replacing the server could exceed $15,000.

Anthony arrived onsite within two hours, recovered the practice data, and rebuilt the server environment using an available workstation as a temporary system.

Working directly with Open Dental and Patterson Imaging, the entire office was restored and operational the same day.

A properly configured replacement server was later installed for less than half the originally quoted cost.

Result:
The practice avoided costly recovery services, protected all patient data, and resumed operations within hours.
