The increasing affordability of dental cone beam (CBCT) technology has expanded the benefit of 3D imaging to a growing number of dentists and dental specialists. Today, more practices are making the investment in CBCT imaging systems to allow for greater in-office clinical capabilities as well as more rapid treatment planning and case acceptance. But with so many cone beam machines available, which CBCT system is right for your practice?
Dental X-ray machines are FDA-regulated medical devices. As such, most states throughout the United States require that dental and dental specialty practices register their facilities and dental X-ray equipment through their state Department of Health or X-ray Programs. X-ray registration helps states maintain and protect the health and safety of the practice staff and patients through initial approvals (if required) and routine periodic inspections of the X-ray equipment. If practices fail to register their facilities and/or their X-ray machines, then states cannot properly ensure the safety of its constituents. Failure to register X-ray facilities and devices with the state in a timely manner can result in serious violations and civil penalties for the doctor and the practice.
