For decades, the Planmeca brand has been well-respected for their delivery of high-quality dental X-ray machines and other products to dentists and dental specialists throughout the world. You’ve made a great decision on choosing a Planmeca CBCT for your dental practice. Your second great decision was saving 30-50% off the price of a new unit by going with a certified pre-owned one from Renew Digital. Your third decision just comes down to which one to choose. The information below should help.
Standard Planmeca CBCT Features
To help you select the right Planmeca cone beam system for your practice, let’s start by looking at all the features that certified pre-owned Planmeca CBCT machines have in common.
- Quality – Planmeca is known for being engineered to produce consistent diagnostic quality images and maintain its reliability over a long life span.
- SCARA Technology – A jointed robotic arm optimizes the rotational movement during the exposure. This helps to capture more precise anatomical details than a standard rotation. The result is faster and more accurate diagnoses.
- Dedicated Panoramic – With a dedicated sensor, you can capture all 2D panoramic images you need without having to take 3D scans on your patients. Available programs include: standard, pediatric, PA and lateral double TMJ, and PA rotational sinus. Optional advanced programs include: horizontal segmenting, orthogonal, interproximal angulation, bitewings, lateral-PA double TMJ, PA multi-angle TMJ, lateral multi-angle TMJ, non-rotational sinus, and more.
- Extraoral Bitewings – Some Planmeca CBCT systems include the extraoral panoramic bitewing program. Extraoral bitewings offers a comfortable, fast and convenient alternative to intraoral bitewings.
- Ceph Upgradeability – As your practice needs change, work with the manufacturer to add a cephalometric attachment to your Planmeca CBCT unit.
- Pedo-Friendly Setting – All Planmeca ProMax units come with Child Modes for panoramic and 3D images. Pediatric settings help reduce the exposure area, therefore minimizing patient radiation dose.
- Optional High-Definition 3D Setting – For exact precision and detail, select one of several high-resolution 3D scan modes. At up to 0.075 mm voxels, the endodontic mode is highly accurate for root canals, implants, and other such treatments.
- Optional Ultra Low Dose 3D – With Planmeca’s Ultra Low Dose feature, you can capture dental cone beam scans at a much lower dose than most standard 2D panoramic X-rays.
- Romexis 3D Imaging Software – Planmeca Romexis 3D imaging software is included with every Planmeca ProMax cone beam unit. It helps you to maximize your 3D images with tools for scanning, diagnosing, and planning treatment. With options for implant planning, you can plan implants and restorations from start to finish.
- Mac-Friendly – Planmeca Romexis 3D imaging software is Mac-compliant. If your office runs on Mac computers, the Romexis software will work with your system.
- Handicap Accessible – With wheelchair and handicap accessible entrances and adjustable heights, you can easily accommodate patients with disabilities.
- TWAIN Integration – Capture and integrate 2D panoramic X-ray images into any dental imaging software using the convenient TWAIN interface. Compatible software includes: Schick, Dexis, Carestream, VIXWIN, Apteryx, Eaglesoft, XDR, Dolphin and more. Ask your Renew Digital Sales Representative if you don’t see your software listed.
