6690v6v1 Carestream Dental Announces CS Brand Identity

ATLANTA – Carestream Dental announced the launch of a major ad campaign designed to familiarize existing and prospective customers with the company’s distinguishing characteristics. Resting on the pillars of efficient workflow, diagnostic excellence and humanized technology, the campaign seeks to help customers understand the rich tradition and many trusted brands that make up Carestream Dental. The ad campaign coincides with a strategic re-branding initiative, where the company will begin renaming several products under the Carestream Dental (CS) brand. “We have a longstanding commitment to quality across all our brands – so many researchers, clinicians and oral health specialists have contributed to the development of our products for more than a century,” said Jody Rodney, director of marketing, Carestream Dental. “We want to unite these leading-edge products under one banner and clearly articulate the benefits and seamlessly integrated nature of Carestream Dental’s digital imaging, software and practice management solutions.”

Carestream Dental’s existing products have been sold under multiple brand names, including SoftDent, PracticeWorks, Kodak, OrthoTrac, RVG, Trophy and Windent. While these are recognized as leading products for various oral health specialties, the different brand names have the potential to obscure products’ relationships and integrated functionality from doctors and oral health practice managers. The company’s first CS-branded product, the CS 9300, was successfully launched in the spring of 2011. Most existing products will soon be sold under the CS brand name, but will keep the same model numbers. Film and chemistry products will continue to be sold under the Kodak brand. Carestream Dental will still support and provide parts and accessories for all of its products.

“Transitioning to the CS brand gives us the opportunity to remind our customers exactly what we stand for, and it’s quite simple: clear, reliable images for precise diagnoses; next-generation technology that’s easy to use and understand; and a smooth, profitable progression through clinical and administrative tasks,” added Rodney. “Carestream Dental cares, and we are committed to the success of our customers.” For more information on Carestream Dental’s portfolio of products, call (800) 944-6365 or visit www.carestreamdental.com.

    Who are your top suppliers? Who are you writing a significant check to each month? Take a look at your credit card statement and business checking account and make a list of your top 10 dental vendors. One of the principles of the national Baldrige award (http://www.nist.gov/baldrige/) is to develop a long term win-win relationship with your “key suppliers/partners and collaborators”.

    Great book for parenting: NurtureShock

    Although I normally write about dentistry and business management, I just finished a great book that shares unique insights into children – and for every dentist, hygienist, assistant and office manager raising children – I hope this is helpful. The authors, Po Bronson and Ashley Merryman, are journalists who realized that over the last 10 years there had been some revolutionary scientific research on children that might affect the way people parent. However, this great research was shared in 5 [...]

    Are you leaving money on the table? Submit your full fee to dental insurance

    Dentists agree – dental insurance is a necessary evil. Necessary to help fill schedules since we’re all trained (thanks to health insurance) that we must follow our insurance plan. Evil because it almost physically hurts to write off 15% – 40% of our fees. We all know that we’re taking a huge hit thanks to dental insurance, but are we also leaving money on the table that’s our own fault? Depending upon your set up for submitting claims to dental [...]

He came to see his [...]

    How the Dentrix appointment history paints an accurate picture

I had joined him on his trip the day before. It was rescheduled for March 6 at 8:30 am. I do not know who I talked [...]

    Dental politics: Do you know the scoop?

    Every year our state dental association hosts a “Day at the Statehouse” where dentists are invited to spend a day learning the top legislative issues in dentistry – and then to share these topics with their state senator and representative. The dental association staff provides written materials to the dentists that clearly explain the 2-3 hot topics for that year. These talking points guide the individual meeting between the dentist and his/her legislators. When a dentist registers for this Statehouse [...]

Here are the ideas I learned at the show: Dentrix updates – Since we use Dentrix practice management software and I know Dentrix brings their best trainers to the show, I always stop by their booth to ask what’s new and ask specific questions.
