Open Dental
How do I connect Open Dental?
Enter your Open Dental API credentials, run the connection test, and let the import finish.
Quick answer
Open Open Dental, enter your Open Dental API credentials and run the connection test. Once it passes, Sera begins importing your data and your connection status shows importing until the first full import completes.
Steps
- Open Open Dental.
- Enter your Open Dental API credentials.
- Run the connection test.
- Wait for the initial import to complete — the status changes from importing to connected.
Effect on your operating mode
Connecting Open Dental switches a practice that is still in setup from Standalone to Integrated. For an already activated practice it never changes your mode and never reclassifies your data.
