How much does MacPractice DDS cost?
MacPractice publishes no price for MacPractice DDS, and no third-party listing gives one either. As of Sep 26, 2026, the only way to get a figure is to ask MacPractice for a written quote for your practice's size. That is worth knowing before a sales call: without a published list price there is nothing to check a proposal against, so ask what the figure covers, what renews, and what it costs to get your records out.

How reviewers score it
The headline rating above is one number covering four questions. Capterra publishes each of them on its own, and the one a practice argues about in a demo is ease of use, so each gets a line here with its own review count. These are a review site's numbers, not ours.
