Dentistry has seen a significant increase in the number of digital imaging technologies that have become commercially available during the past year.

This article provides an overview of the principles of image management in the dental office with an emphasis on hardware and software requirements as well as practical applications that a properly implemented image management system can afford the modern dental office.
