I temp a lot and these are my thoughts on different softwares. It may or may not be very biased

S tier

• Open dental: So easy to use, everything is right in one section. S tier easily. Also isn't cloud based so doesn't suffer from internet lag
• Curve: Clean and modern user interface. Easy to get the hang of
• Tracker: Similar to above, clean visuals, easy to navigate. Could also go in high A tier

A tier

• Cleardent: Classic program, solid software but nothing special. Top of A tier - S tier contender
• Abeldent: Similar to cleardent, not as popular though so havent used it as much
• PowerPractice: Easy to navigate, straightforward, simple. Perio chart layout is questionable... Bottom of A tier

B tier

• Oryx: Very modern design - too many buttons. I dont like how the schedule view randomly changes and you have to change it back to see the full schedule. A tier contender
• Dentrix: Dentrix is like the old pair of sneaker you refuse to throw out. You like it because you're used to it but theres better ones out there.

C tier

• Gold: Old program. Nothing special and chart can be viewed by one person at a time
• Maxident: It takes like 10 button clicks to post treatment, next update they should make it so you have to solve a captcha to post too. Paint mode is a cool feature though.

F tier

• Too many buttons. Launching a spaceship would be easier

Just started learning freecad this month and have been enjoying making and 3d printing a lot of different things. Obviously as everyone knows theres a bit of a learning curve to 3d design, and augmenting strong skills with ai would make designing way easier.

Its kind of a controversial topic but do you think freecad would eventually have this kind of integration
