An intraoral scanner is a handheld device used to create a digital impression in dentistry. This device has really become essential for every dentalpractice that places a premium on efficient procedures and the patient experience.

Quakertown, PA – DEXIS IOS Solutions is pleased to announce the expansion of its portfolio and ecosystem through new digital end-to-end workflows.

As dental technology advances, a growing number of today’s dental practices are expanding beyond general dentistry. More doctors are looking to differentiate and grow their practice while meeting a wider range of patient needs in-house. In the process of doing so, they’re also discovering the vital role 3D imaging plays in opening new possibilities for diagnosis, treatment planning and positive patient outcomes.

One look at a 3D image captured by a CBCT (cone beam computed tomography) scan, and there’s no question the level and quality of detail far surpasses 2D. Despite the clear advantages, however, some practices still have hesitations about investing in a CBCT system — thinking it’s too complex with more imaging power than is needed. Maybe it’s time to think again.

DEXIS announces FDA 510(k) clearance of pathological dental findings on 2D intraoral X-ray images with DTX Studio Clinic. This is the first dental imaging software to support six types of pathological dental findings and integrates with most dental equipment.

There’s been substantial buzz around assisted intelligence (AI) in recent months, and its implications for efficiency and accuracy. Indeed, AI is now an ingrained part of our daily lives; consider how many times you ask Siri a question, command Alexa to play a song, or watch a suggested show on your favorite streaming channel — all enabled by AI.

Today’s dental market is facing significant challenges around acquiring and retaining clinical staff. Intuitive technology in a practice has been shown to aid in staff retention.
