RENEW DIGITAL LEARNING HUB

Dentists and dental professionals are increasingly shying away from messy and uncomfortable traditional dental impressions in favor of intraoral scanners that allow for the capture of impressions digitally.

For over 40 years, Planmeca has consistently ranked as one of the leading manufacturers in the industry for digital dental imaging, providing a comprehensive line of panoramic, cephalometric and cone beam imaging systems. Planmeca’s technologies routinely receive high marks for image quality, dependability, and ease of use.

For over 10 years, Renew Digital has helped dentists and specialists with practice digitization by making high-quality 2D and 3D dental X-ray machines more affordable with our extensive offering of certified pre-owned dental imaging equipment.

As the most common type of dental X-ray, the bitewing provides significant information for dentists to diagnose common dental conditions and aid in customized treatment planning for each patient. Besides showing clear images of the teeth and roots, a bitewing X-ray also shows occlusal positioning. Performing bitewing X-rays typically involves taking up to four images with a digital sensor or dental film to isolate certain areas. With the extraoral bitewing feature common in modern panorex X-ray systems, these concerns are a thing of the past.

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.

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.

Renew Digital is proud to offer a wide variety of certified pre-owned Planmeca 2D and 3D dental X-ray machines. From a CBCT perspective, we typically have a variety of used Planmeca ProMax 3D Classic and Planmeca ProMax 3D Mid cone beam models in available inventory at any given time. Both of these machines are excellent options from a brand that has a long history of delivering high-quality, reliable X-ray equipment to dentists and dental specialists alike. But, if you’re trying to decide if a Planmeca 3D system is right for you and which model is a better fit, we hope to answer your questions below.

When it comes to implant planning, the features of the Planmeca ProMax 3D Classic make it an obvious choice for your practice. The medium 8 x 8 cm field of view can capture the entire dentition for a wide range of dental exams. The included Romexis 3D software can support any 2D or 3D images plus CAD/CAM applications.

Renew Digital offers a wide variety of 3D cone beam enabled and 3D upgradeable panoramic X-ray and panoramic + ceph combination machines. Practices on a budget often ask us if it makes sense to buy a 3D upgradeable panoramic unit and upgrade later or go ahead and purchase a 3D enabled dental X-ray machine right now. The correct answer will be different for every practice, but here are some tips to help.
