The latest advancements in technology and commoditization of digital and cone beam X-ray technology have allowed for dental and dental specialty practices to upgrade from film to digital dental X-ray machines at faster rates than ever before. In recent years, we’ve even seen a huge push from 2D  panoramic X-ray machines) to dental cone beam systems that provide 3D imaging options. This is great news for dental practitioners who are able to more effectively and efficiently treat their patients as well as add more procedures to their list of available services. This all can lead to healthier patients and a healthier bottom line for the dental practice, as well.

Knowing that you can get the same high-quality panoramic X-ray machines and dental cone beam from Renew Digital for 30-50% less than new dental equipment should excite you but it might also make you a bit skeptical. That’s okay. We understand. It’s hard to believe that this used dental equipment can cost so much less while still providing the same features and functionality as brand-new models. So, when we buy or sell panoramic dental X-rays or cone beam systems, how do we determine our pricing? Here’s a breakdown of the process to help clarify things for you.

Over the past decade that we’ve been in business, Renew Digital has worked extensively with a variety of leading digital dental equipment manufacturers that offer panoramic X-ray machines, cone beam CT systems, and intraoral scanners. We’ve also worked very closely with thousands of dental and dental specialty practices across the United States and have a good understanding of their clinical and workflow needs.

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.

As the leading provider of certified pre-owned digital dental equipment from premier manufacturers, we are constantly fielding questions from our valued customers about which type and/or model of dental X-ray machine to purchase. One of the most common questions we get is whether a digital panorex X-ray machine or a dental cone beam system is the best choice when upgrading to a new extraoral imaging system. Here are some of the considerations we offer when advising our current and prospective customers.

At Renew Digital, some of the recurring concerns we hear from customers considering the purchase of a dental CBCT machine are in regards to compliance with state regulations. Dentists and dental specialists interested in upgrading their 2D panoramic X-ray systems have consistently asked us what they should do to comply with state regulatory agencies when undergoing a 3D upgrade. Here are a few top considerations.

Although Renew Digital specializes in providing our customers with some of the most trusted names in the digital dental imaging industry, sometimes it is worth focusing on a particular manufacturer or model. In this case we are discussing the Planmeca ProMax 3D Classic, which delivers several features and functions to help make this dedicated panoramic and medium field of view (FOV) cone beam system a great choice for general dentists and specialists alike. In addition, purchasing certified pre-owned digital dental imaging equipment from Renew Digital helps make owning a Planmeca CBCT system more affordable than ever.
