The short answer

Neither Dentitek nor ADSTRA publishes a price, so any cost comparison between them depends entirely on the quotes you negotiate.

Choose Dentitek if…

Quebec practices wanting a local French-language vendor — but go in with a detailed question list.

Choose ADSTRA if…

Quebec and multilingual practices that want French-language software from a Canadian vendor.

It is ahead on scheduling, clinical charting, native imaging, billing, patient messaging and 2 more.

Pricing, side by side

Dentitek

No published pricingchecked2026-08-01

Dentitek does not publish a price. You have to request a quote, which means you cannot budget or compare before speaking to a salesperson. No figure published. The public site is also very thin, so most product detail is unverifiable from outside.

We do not repeat third-party price estimates for quote-only vendors. Several widely republished figures in this category turned out to belong to a different product — see how we compare.

Strengths and trade-offs

Dentitek

Strengths

  • Real demand in Quebec — one of the most-searched dental software names in Canada, which usually reflects a large installed base.
  • CDAnet certified, so claims submission is covered.
  • Quebec-based vendor, with French-language support as a matter of course.

Trade-offs

  • No published pricing.
  • The public website carries very little product detail, so almost nothing can be verified from outside — unusual for a system with this much search demand.
  • We have marked most modules “not stated” rather than guess. Ask for a written feature list.

ADSTRA

Strengths

  • Trilingual — English, French and Spanish — which matters in Quebec and for multilingual teams.
  • Genuinely modular: management, clinical and imaging are separable, so you can buy only what you need.
  • In the market since 1994, with imaging developed in-house rather than integrated.

Trade-offs

  • No published pricing.
  • Modularity cuts both ways — the useful configuration is several modules, and the total is not visible up front.
  • Thin public documentation of the newer patient-facing features.
