Case Study: Touro College of Dental Medicine achieves scalable, HIPAA‑compliant, high‑performance digital dentistry with TierPoint

Touro College of Dental Medicine Transforms Education & Clinical Care through Digital Dentistry

Touro College of Dental Medicine (TCDM) needed an IT platform to support modern digital dentistry across education and clinical care. Faced with the limitations of traditional PC networks—poor scalability, heavy maintenance and security risks—the school engaged Hudson River CIO Advisors and TierPoint to design an infrastructure that could deliver high‑end 3D graphics, fast logins, roaming user sessions and HIPAA‑compliant patient records.

The team deployed thin clients and a Citrix graphics environment backed by TierPoint’s GPU‑enabled servers and direct fiber, plus Imprivata for two‑factor authentication and virtual desktop roaming. The result is a low‑latency, high‑resolution system that supports a 112‑seat simulation lab and 350+ workstations, scales to 600 students and 160 chairs, simplifies maintenance, and delivers secure, HIPAA‑compliant operations with disaster recovery and business‑continuity protections.
