How much does Dentrix Ascend cost?

Henry Schein One publishes no price for Dentrix Ascend. Third-party listing sites give 2 figures that do not say where they came from: $500–$1,200/month and $4,788/year. Treat those as estimates rather than a quote: as of Sep 26, 2026, the only number Henry Schein One will stand behind is the one in a written proposal. Ask what the figure covers, what renews, and what it costs to get your records out, because none of that is published either.

Each line carries the page that claim came from and the date we checked it. "Included" means the base product or the cheapest paid tier. A capability with no line here is one we have not checked on Dentrix Ascend, which is a different statement from one we checked and could not establish.

Add-ons with a published integration

Each row is one add-on joined to Dentrix Ascend, grouped by the job the add-on does. The depth is the word the source uses, and the company named is the one that published the claim. A missing add-on means we hold no record either way, which is common: most add-on vendors publish a partner directory and most software vendors do not.
