Dental IT Support Brooklyn — HIPAA, Networks & Practice Management
Brooklyn's dental IT team since 2003. Dentrix, Eaglesoft & Open Dental servers, Cat6A cabling, HIPAA lockdown and after-hours installs — from Crown Heights to Bay Ridge, Williamsburg to Flatbush.
Short Circuited is Brooklyn IT. We've been fixing computers at 1339 Lincoln Pl, Crown Heights (11213)since 2003 — walk the block and you'll see our work. Today the same team wires and secures dental practices across the entire borough: Park Slope, Williamsburg, Bay Ridge, Flatbush, Bushwick, Downtown Brooklyn, Bed-Stuy, Sunset Park, Coney Island and every neighborhood in between. Same-day dispatch inside Brooklyn. After-hours installs so your chairs never go dark.
Brooklyn dental offices pick us because a general IT shop doesn't know what a Dexis bridge is, why a CBCT volume kills Cat5e, or what a HIPAA auditor actually checks. We do. Dentrix, Eaglesoft, Open Dental, Dexis, Schick — we live there. Flat-rate quotes, no hourly surprises.

Why Brooklyn dental practices switch to us
Most of the calls we get in Brooklyn sound the same: “Dentrix froze mid-procedure,” “our sensor won't bridge,” “the guy who set up our network disappeared.” The root cause is almost always a consumer router pretending to be a firewall, Cat5e from 2012, or a “server” that's just a Dell desktop in the supply closet.
We rip that out and replace it with the same playbook DSOs use — business-grade firewall, segmented VLANs (staff / guest / imaging / IoT), Cat6A everywhere, real server with UPS — at a small-practice price. See the full spec on our network & server installation page and cost it in 60 seconds with the network cost estimator.
