Changing your Hosted-Cloud DentalWriter Password

Steps on changing hosted (cloud) DentalWriter password

You are provided with an initial password upon receiving your secure account (login) information. You will be prompted to change and create your own password upon logging into the RDP environment for the first time and after any password changes.
