Alberta Society of Dental Specialists

The Alberta Society of Dental Specialists was looking for a new communication vehicle that would educate Albertans on dental specialties so they could make informed decisions regarding their treatment and find a specialist. Because they have limited resources available to manage their member database, they were looking for an innovative method to enable practitioners to maintain their own personal profiles. In addition, they wanted to make this information available to the general public by way of a searchable database that was resident on their website.

Redengine used Redengine Online Platform to develop the Alberta Society of Dental Specialists site, which means that the site can be updated by non-technical staff from any location that is connected to the internet. The site promotes the dental specialties and allows potential patients to learn more about which type of specialist they should be contacting. Dental specialists are able to upload their own personal information so that people searching the site for a Dental Specialists are provided the most up-to-date information about them. To support internal communication and the sharing of resources among the specialists, a secured 'members only' area was also added.

 

Not only does the site promote the membership, it also enables the Dental Specialists to upload files and presentations in a collaborative members only area. The website also provides an education regarding the specialties so that individuals can determine who might be best suited to address their dental treatment needs.

"Our website has been up and running and all the comments received have been favourable. The website is visually pleasing, informative and easy to navigate, which accomplishes all of our objectives that our society set out to complete as we had envisioned our website concept," stated Dr. Karen Cheng.
