RENEW DIGITAL LEARNING HUB

As dental and dental specialists expand the types and level of services they provide to their patients, they often look for ways to help streamline their practice workflow and improve patient care. Some of the more recent technological advancements in dental CBCT and intraoral scanning, plus the ability to merge the two dental imaging technologies together, can help practitioners realize even greater efficiency, productivity, and patient satisfaction.

The American Dental Association (ADA) defines a Dental Support Organization (DSO) as “a group practice that contracts with a dental management organization to conduct all of the business activities of the practice.” DSO models emerged as early as the 1990s when a group of orthodontists joined together to manage all business aspects of the orthodontic practices, separating out these functions and allowing practitioners to focus on patient care.

One of the latest dental technological advancements is the introduction of robotic assistance devices to facilitate dental implant placement and other surgical applications. These robotic systems assist dentists and dental specialists during surgery by guiding the practitioner through the procedure precisely according to the treatment plan. Surgical robots do not perform the actual surgery; however, they offer accuracy and stabilitywhile allowing the dental professional to maintain control.

Renew Digital offers a wide range of certified pre-owned Sirona dental panoramic, cephalometric and cone beam systems. When considering adding a Sirona X-ray or CBCT system to their practices, dentists often ask about compatibility with other devices, software, and programs. We’re answering some of the most commonly asked questions below.

Pre-owned Sirona Orthophos XG panoramic X-ray machines from Renew Digital are built to last, but that doesn’t mean they don’t need a little T.L.C. Even though your certified pre-owned Sirona XG3 or Sirona XG5 panoramic X-ray was fully tested during installation, it will still need regular maintenance so that it stays in prime condition and your patient images remain at the highest quality possible. Here are a few tips from the manufacturer and Renew Digital for keeping your used Sirona X-ray machine in the best possible working order.

Cone beam dental scans have become the gold standard of dental imaging throughout the past two decades. They are especially helpful in the oral and maxillofacial surgery practice because they allow you to more effectively visualize dentition and dental anatomy without distortion and in relationship to other craniofacial structures. This helps you to more effectively and efficiently diagnose conditions, plan treatment, and communicate your treatment recommendations to your patients. All of these benefits ultimately lead to better surgical outcomes and higher patient satisfaction.

Plus, at 30-50% less than the cost of new Planmeca ProMax S3 machines, they’re not only a powerful digital X-ray machine, but also an unbeatable value. Take a look below at some of the features that set the Planmeca ProMax S3 apart from other digital dental X-ray machines in its class.

Many patients fear having dental cone beam X-rays taken because they do not want to expose themselves to more radiation than is absolutely necessary. However, this can make it difficult to get the information you, as a dentist or dental specialist, need in order to develop a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.
