Imaging modalities for dental implants: DEXIS digital radiography.
DEXIS intraoral radiography provides clarity of image, a software interface that is intuitive and easy to use, and a flexibility that allows it to network reliably with a practice's existing computer systems. For oral implantology in particular, which is highly dependent on the proper preoperative treatment planning and appropriate radiographic evaluation of the edentulous ridge, modem imaging techniques such as those provided by DEXIS are facilitating the trend toward the nonspecialist place-ment of implants. DEXIS can be used effectively to assess the quantity and quality of the bone present and to visualize the location and relationships between critical internal anatomic structures for implant placement. The company's patented PerfectSize intraoral sensor replaces traditional intraoral X-ray film, providing images that are particularly useful as adjuncts to implant planning and placement.
