Helping You Do More with Your Dentrix System

Updated 9/27/2019

Dentrix includes a screen capture feature that allows you to capture any image on your computer screen, including graphics, images from third-party software, X-rays, perio charts, and Web pages. These images can be stored directly in a patient’s Document Center.

To use this feature:

  1. From the Document Center toolbar, select Acquire > Screen Capture.
  2. From the Screen Capture dialog box, select Start Capture. The mouse icon changes from an arrow to a cross-hair icon.
  3. Click and drag over the area of the screen you want to import into the Document Center. The image is stored in the patient’s Document Center.

You can adjust the settings for which category the document will be stored under by clicking Setup > Acquisition Method Defaults from the Document Center toolbar.
