Dentsply Sirona is urging users in 39 countries, including Canada, to upgrade to its new cloud-based platform, DS Core, ahead of the discontinuation of its Connect Case Center (CCC) on Nov. 15.
Since 2010, CCC has connected dental practices and labs. However, the transition to DS Core will allow users to store and view patient media in one place and collaborate from anywhere, marking an advancement in digital dentistry and practice management software.
Upgrading to DS Core is the “next logical step” as the company embraces a new era of connected dentistry, says Max Milz, GVP of Connected Technology Solutions at Dentsply Sirona.
“DS Core provides clinicians access to key workflows—restorative, aligners, implantology—from one centralized cloud-based platform, simplifying their lives and enabling better patient care, practice growth, and operational efficiency,” added Milz.
DS Core offers features such as:
- Scanning using CEREC or Connect Software.
- Adding X-rays and other files to case submissions.
- Accessing and monitoring orders from any device.
- Selecting different tiers of access, eliminating the need for licenses.
Dentist: ‘Collaboration with lab improved’
“Since switching to DS Core, our collaboration with the lab has improved,” said Dr. DeeDee Meevasin, a dentist from Las Vegas, Nevada. “We’ve gained more workflow flexibility, and it frees up the scanner, allowing us to scan more patients. With DS Core, our lab cases run smoothly from scanning to collaboration. It’s all in one place and allows me to focus on what matters most—my patients.”

AI driving cloud demand
The rise of artificial intelligence (AI) is fueling increased demand for cloud computing solutions. Western Digital Corp. recently projected stronger-than-expected fourth-quarter revenue, attributing the growth to sustained demand from cloud service providers amid the rapid rise of AI, Reuters recently reported.. In the quarter ending March 28, the company’s cloud market revenue jumped 38 per cent year-over-year to $2.01 billion, comprising 87 per cent of its total revenue.
“Even in a world marked by geopolitical uncertainty and shifting tariff dynamics, one thing remains constant: the exponential growth of data,” said CEO Irving Tan.
