Dental Practices
Dental IT that includes the imaging PC — and the back door.
Dental offices in Lincoln, Omaha, and the Midwest combine PHI, expensive sensors, and after-hours drug/equipment theft in one suite. SAINT runs managed IT around your practice-management and imaging stack, cybersecurity (Huntress or Guardz), email hardening, tested backups, and physical security that assumes someone will try the rear door. BAA before PHI-adjacent work. HIPAA-aligned controls — never “HIPAA certified.” Hickman HQ; Lincoln and Omaha are markets, not storefronts.

Dental FAQ
Do you sign a BAA?+
Yes, before PHI-adjacent systems.
Can you support Dentrix, Eaglesoft, Open Dental, or our imaging vendor?+
We support the environment around them — PCs, identity, network, backup, security. Application support stays with that vendor. We only name platforms we actually support in your engagement.
Will cameras record operatories?+
Only if you have a documented reason. Default design is entries, reception, and after-hours. See /physical-security-assessments.
Lincoln / Omaha dental offices — same team as therapy clinics?+
Same SAINT team, different site reality (imaging + theft). Healthcare hub: /industries/healthcare. Call 531-625-2111.
