Among the many tools that digital X-ray software programs have for doctors to use, one feature that is not available with every type of software is implant libraries, or implant labels.
DentiMax imaging software not only has implant libraries, but there are also implants from many different implant companies available for your use. You simply choose the company you purchase your implants from and then select the type or family of implant. A graphical representation of every implant the company manufactures is available for you to overlay onto your X-ray image.
Not only are the implant labels graphically accurate, but also to scale. The exact height, width, and diameter of every label are listed along with the image of the label itself. This allows you to precisely plan where you are going to place the implant before you do. You can also take into consideration any patient-specific anatomy that comes into play before you start the procedure.
You can show your patient exactly where the implant will go and how it will look before it is seated. This not only helps with patient education but also with treatment and procedure acceptance.
By using the implant image libraries available within the DentiMax imaging software, you can plan your implant procedures more effectively and gain a higher patient comfort and acceptance level.
If there is an implant you would like to use but that is not yet included in the library, contact the DentiMax digital imaging department at (800) 704-8494. Please have a contact at your implant company with whom we can correspond. We will do our best to work with your implant company to get their products incorporated into the implant library.
