Henry Schein and Henry Schein One Unveil Digital Workflow LinkIt

New open-architecture plus lab case workflow reflects company’s commitment to interoperability within Dentrix PM software.

Henry Schein, Inc., and Henry Schein One have introduced “LinkIt,” a seamless digital workflow that enables dental teams using Dentrix to easily connect to a range of digital imaging, planning, and design systems. Through LinkIt, available now in the United States and Canada, Henry Schein provides an end-to-end workflow, starting with Dentrix and extending to final production. Dentrix is Henry Schein One’s leading on-premise dental practice management software (PMS). 

LinkIt is designed to streamline the workflow process and minimize repetitive data entry, eliminating the friction that often occurs between PMS and third-party solutions. Dental professionals, both in the clinic and in the lab, can now enter case details once in Dentrix, launch intraoral scanning software directly from the platform, and maintain a cohesive flow from imaging to design to delivery. This enables the formation of a central repository for all diagnostic images, accommodating inputs from a wide array of device manufacturers.

With a focus on enabling interoperability and reducing complexity in the digital workflow, the LinkIt workflow reflects the company’s commitment to supporting the unique needs of dental practices by removing technology silos and allowing clinicians to work across a range of preferred brands and platforms.

“Dental professionals have made it clear that they need interoperable, flexible systems that effortlessly integrate,” said Mackenzie Richter, vice president, global commercial digital workflow solutions, Henry Schein, Inc, in this week’s press release. “The LinkIt workflow is our answer to that call—a future-ready framework designed to simplify digital workflows, enable prosthetic workflows, and support every step of the patient journey.” 

LinkIt features integrations with platforms from industry leaders like Planmeca and Medit. Most recently, it expanded to include Dentsply Sirona’s DS Core. With more scanners coming soon, this approach streamlines the digital workflow and empowers practices to build the ideal technology infrastructure for their specific requirements, Henry Schein stated.

“We’re thrilled about the integration of DS Core with Henry Schein’s LinkIt platform, a milestone that embodies the spirit of connected dentistry,” added Max Milz, group vice president, connected technology solutions at Dentsply Sirona. “This collaboration will empower our customers with seamless, cloud-powered workflows—bringing greater efficiency to daily practice workflows such as sending lab cases, single-visit restorations, or patient consultations.” 

The LinkIt workflow supports the full clinical continuum, from diagnostics and treatment planning to design and fabrication, all anchored by Dentrix’s robust practice management foundation. By enabling true brand-agnostic connectivity, Henry Schein continues to advance its vision for a unified, open digital future in dentistry.

“Running a dental practice today is more demanding than ever. It eats up time, strains teams, and pulls focus from patient care,” said Ali Hyatt, chief customer and growth officer at Henry Schein One. “With LinkIt in Dentrix, we’re making technology feel invisible so dentists can stay focused on what matters most: their patients.”
