Why Practices Are Switching from Torch to ZenOne
Transparent Pricing, No Pressure
ZenOne isn’t tied to any single distributor or dental supply company. You get full access to your trusted dental suppliers and ZenOne’s partner network. You can compare prices on dental products, order smarter, and actually save.
Torch uses reps and curated catalogs to steer you toward certain deals. With ZenOne, you’re in control.
Real Inventory Management
Barcode scanning. Budget tracking. Dental inventory control with QR codes. ZenOne goes beyond ordering, giving you full visibility into what’s in stock, what’s running low, and what’s actually being used.
Torch is order-first. ZenOne is operations-first.
Built for Private Practices
We don’t serve DSOs. We don’t lock you into preferred vendors. ZenOne was built by people who’ve walked through hundreds of private practices and seen the chaos of managing dental office supplies firsthand.
Our mission? Make supply ordering feel like second nature.
Transparency Matters
At ZenOne, we believe in earning your trust (not manufacturing it) with clear pricing on online dental supplies
While Torch prominently displays a 5.0-star rating on their website, their actual Google rating is 3.6 (as of July 2025).
We’re not here to bash the competition. We just think you deserve the full picture when choosing dental inventory management software for your practice.
What you see on our website is what you get: real features, real pricing, and real reviews from real customers.
