Software Ease of Use
According to the manufacturer, the DEXIS x-ray software was designed to be highly effective throughout diagnosis, treatment planning, and treatment. It is intended to serve as an imaging hub, managing all digital images, including intra- and extraoral radiographs and photographs. The manufacturer states that the images can be quickly organized, stored, retrieved, printed, and shared with patients and colleagues. The 9 dentists who participated in this product evaluation were asked to rate the DEXIS Digital Imaging software on its ease of use with regard to taking and accessing radiographs and for diagnosis, patient education, and communication with colleagues and insurance companies. Six of the evaluators rated the system as excellent and 3 rated it as very good. One evaluator commented that “when communicating with patients, we use DEXIS images displayed on a monitor in front of the patient every day on virtually every patient.”Software Integration
The manufacturer claims that the DEXIS imaging software can be easily integrated with all major practice management systems. According to DEXIS, the DEXIS Integrator automatically synchronizes with the patient record.
When the evaluators were asked to rate the software integration with practice management software and interface with hardware (eg, cameras, panoramics, and scanners), 78% rated it as excellent to very good, while 22% rated it as good. One of the evaluators said, “The bridge to our practice management systems is seamless. We use [the] DEXIS digital pan[oramic] so that we can store panoramic x-rays easily in the same location as full series. We use an intraoral camera to store preoperative and interoperative photographs for excellent documentation.”Sensor Comfort and Ease of Use
According to DEXIS, the heart of their digital system is the PerfectSize sensor. The manufacturer states that their single-size sensor has 3 advantages:
1) because the electronics are on the back of the sensor, the active imaging area is most of the total sensor size;
2) the beveled corners, slim profile, and rounded casing allow for accurate placement and patient comfort;
3) patented cord placement allows the practitioner to take vertical and horizontal bitewings and all periapicals with only 1 universally sized sensor. The evaluators were asked to rate both the ease of use of the sensor and patient comfort. Five evaluators rated ease of use excellent and 4 rated it very good. With regard to patient comfort, 3 evaluators rated the sensor excellent and 6 rated it very good. One evaluator noted that he experienced a few issues when placing the sensor in some children and patients with very small mouths. Another evaluator, however, is very happy with the sensor, saying, “I chose DEXIS to take a full radiographic series on every patient. It was the only direct image system we tested that met that objective.”Image Quality Dexis Intraoral Digital Dental X-Ray Sensor
According to DEXIS, their digital xray system provides detailed image quality and includes image enhancement tools that increase diagnostic capabilities. When the 9 evaluators were asked to rate the system’s image quality and enhancement aids, 89% rated them as excellent to very good. One of the evaluators commented that the system’s “ClearVu and image magnification allow us to diagnose very effectively.”Overall Satisfaction
When asked to rate their overall satisfaction with the DEXIS Digital X-ray System, 89% of the evaluators rated it as excellent to very good. Commented one evaluator, “DEXIS has been very responsive to our needs.” | 3Shape TRIOS 4 Intraoral ScannerOur most powerful intraoral scanner to date Take your dentistry beyond treatment
Our intraoral scanning solutions allow you to take your dentistry beyond. The new 3Shape TRIOS 4 combines our established superior scanning technology with groundbreaking caries diagnostic aid technology* for both surface and interproximal caries. No additional scanning device needed. Smart tips 3Shape TRIOS 4 Intraoral ScannerThe new generation of TRIOS smart tips feature instant-heat technology for optimized scanning.Be scan-ready in seconds with instant-heat technology.Scan 2-3 times as many patients with instant-heat in combination with 30% more battery life.Optimal scanning due to automatic use counter and tip-change alert.The TRIOS system is a complete in-house ecosystem including a scanner and extensive design software. This means there are plenty of options depending on your needs. Those who are just looking for a scanner and want to utilize labs may look into the basic, cheaper options. Those who want to design crowns, bridges and other prosthetics can opt for design modules. The only missing component is a milling machine, which if you want to mill restorations in-house, will have to be from a third party. This proves to be a weak link in the digital chain.At iDD, we have been using the TRIOS 3 for over four years in our clinic, spending literally thousands of hours learning the workflow. We have carried out all aspects of dentistry using the TRIOS system including same-day crowns, implant surgical guides, implant restorations and digital smile design.Disclaimer: This is an impartial review of the scanner and we do not have any ties to the company. The team at iDD remain unwaveringly committed to providing you with objective and trustworthy information and therefore do not seek any sponsorship. 3Shape kindly loaned us a TRIOS 4 scanner, due to a personal interest in upgrading our older TRIOS 3 model. Our team at iDD are constantly approached by scanner companies to review their scanners and it is always made clear that they will have no part in writing reviews or restricting any conclusions iDD makes in our thorough analysis and clinical use of these products. | Biolase Waterlase MDX All Tissue LaserThe MDX delivers 300 mJ of energy at 8 W, and it can easily be upgraded to a 450 mJ (9 W) model for 50% faster cutting as clinical skills improve and applications expand (see ?MDX Specs?). This next-generation of the best-selling WaterLase MD features improvements to the laser engine and delivery system ergonomics, and it enables rapid hardtissue cutting speed with unprecedented affordability.Time-Tested Technology Biolase Waterlase MDX All Tissue LaserThe MDX is built on the technologies and reputations of its predecessors, the BIOLASE WaterLase MD and WaterLase iPlus all-tissue lasers.The Waterlase MD features Hydro- Photonics?a combination of YSGG laser energy and water?which allows the clinician to perform a wide range of conventional procedures with less anesthetic. Known for its precision and accuracy, the MD enables treatment of targeted areas of both tooth structure and soft tissue while maintaining the structural integrity of the tooth and leaving surrounding areas unaffected.The Waterlase MD became the company?s flagship product, breaking new ground in the areas of cutting speed, user interface, and ergonomic design. In 2011 that ?flagship? designation was overtaken by the company?s new WaterLase iPlus, an even faster, more powerful machine. It delivers up to 10 W of power at 600 mJ, which makes it the most powerful laser on the global market at the short pulse length of 50 ?s, all through a highly intuitive preprogrammed user interface for everything from routine restorative cases to specialty periodontal, cosmetic, and endodontic procedures.The iPlus features Biolase?s 2780 nm YSGG technology with the versatility of a dual-wavelength configuration; namely, an integrated iLase 940 nm diode laser to handle unexpected soft-tissue cases, better bleeding control, and the potential for temporary pain relief and teeth whitening. As anticipated, the iPlus proved beneficial for experienced laser dentists who had been anxiously awaiting a machine that would deliver more power, control, and versatility. However, the new laser also provided many of the ?uninitiated? with an easier-than-expected, highly intuitive introduction to all-tissue laser dentistry. The MDX takes this one step further, with a price point that puts the technology within reach of nearly any dentist.
No More Excuses: Affordable Pricing, Substantial ROIThe perception of all-tissue laser technology as inaccessible to most dentists is beginning to dissipate. Even so, some dentists remain unconvinced.The reality, however, is that BIOLASE?s positioning of the MDX as an entry-level product, starting under $40,000, has made the technology much more affordable. Combining better and more efficient manufacturing with strategic sourcing of components results in pricing that most clinicians will view as extremely reasonable. In addition, the initial investment will be recouped with a substantial ROI, which can be realized via 3 main areas of application.1. For hard-tissue restorative dentistry? the ?bread and butter? of general practices?the MDX will enable faster, more efficient and, in most cases, virtually painless restorations for all cavity classes in both adults and children.2. The MDX allows dentists to retain patients who may have traditionally been referred out for osseous crown lengthening. Using the MDX, patients reap the benefits of considerably more comfortable soft-tissue procedures without the inconvenience of a referral, while the practice reaps the benefits of a happier and more loyal patient base.3. MDX provides an effective and efficient gateway into periodontics. Specifically, the MDX promotes deep pocket therapy with new attachment and is especially effective for minimally invasive removal of both subgingival inflamed tissue and calculus in patients with moderate to severe periodontal disease.Another DimensionBIOLASE?s comprehensive in-office and online training and support promise to render the learning curve extremely manageable. And, as intimidation is replaced by both comfort and confidence, clinicians will find that all-tissue laser technology will add a new and profitable dimension to their practices. | Schick CDR Elite Sensor Kit Size 2
