RENEW DIGITAL LEARNING HUB

More and more, when it comes time to start shopping for dental imaging equipment - hunting for the best value can be tricky with so many different brands and models to choose from.

The dental industry is constantly evolving, with exciting, new advancements in tech driving the need for updated equipment.

Extraoral X-ray machines, in particular, are essential tools for diagnostics and treatment planning. For most practices, from panos, pan/cephs to CBCTs, these are essential for the day-to-day operations and all diagnostic work.

Planmeca, a global leader in dental technology, has long been at the forefront of innovation, offering a comprehensive range of high-quality dental equipment and solutions.

Founded in 1971 and headquartered in Helsinki, Finland, Planmeca has built a reputation for its commitment to cutting-edge technology, design excellence, and patient-centered care.

We here at Renew Digital have been working with Planmeca imaging products for over a decade, and have helped hundreds of doctors get started with this popular brand. Feedback we get is consistently positive from our customers, hence why we continue reselling their used imaging devices.

Today we're talking about the company’s history, its product offerings, and its impact on the dental industry.

Are you looking for ways to economy-proof your practice? Across the country, dental practices are looking to increase their profitability by retaining more patients, lowering overhead and increasing their service offerings.

CBCT is a proven method towards increasing a dental practice's profitability.

Why?

3D imaging available through CBCT allows doctors to retain more procedures, and gives a visual aid for educating your patients - opening the door for increased treatment acceptance.

Think of CBCT as a tool to allow you to do more, better dentistry! 

So, are you ready? Today, we're going to talk about the qualifiers and considerations dentists (regardless of specialty) should take when considering an upgrade from 2D imaging to CBCT.. based on feedback we've received from doctors we've worked with.

As a dental professional, the 4 letters CBCT are likely not new to you. After all, you’ve probably heard CBCT or dental cone beam computed tomography mentioned in a CE course, webinar, dental conference, by a colleague or coworker or in your dental studies.

But, if you’re accustomed to using 2D imaging now, why switch to 3D dental cone beam CT?

Dentsply Sirona stands as a cornerstone in the field of dental technology, renowned for its comprehensive range of innovative products and solutions that cater to dental professionals worldwide.

Have you given any thought to trading in your imaging unit to treat patients with a more advanced imaging solution?

Upgrading to CBCT is not just a technological upgrade—it's an investment in precision, efficiency, and patient-centric care. By harnessing the power of CBCT imaging, dental practices can elevate diagnostic accuracy, treatment planning efficacy, and patient satisfaction.

We just got back from this year’s AAO Annual Meeting hosted in beautiful New Orleans! Upon our return, we started reflecting on all we gleaned from the show, including prevalent technology and methodology trends. One item that seems to stand out every year is dental cone beam computed tomography (CBCT). Not so much as whether IF they are using CBCT, as much as HOW they’re using and WHAT KIND of equipment is best.

You probably don’t need us to tell you, if you’re in the market for extraoral imaging for your dental or specialty practice, you have a wide variety of trusted brands within reach. Many of the best manufacturers of panoramic and cephalometric imaging units are available here at Renew Digital, including but not limited to Sirona, Vatech, Carestream Dental, and of course, Planmeca.
