The Dexis horizontal sensor model is ideal for routine bitewing (HBW) images, but it can also take periapical (PA) views especially wisdom tooth views, PAs ( for PAs slide the imaging device up or down in the 1shot claw and also adjust the x-ray tube to suit) and endodontic shots of the posterior/buccal teeth with reamers and rubber dam in place, where the 1shotdental holder can be hand - finger/thumb held on the tooth. There are only 2 models in the Dexis 1shotdental holder system - horizontal and vertical. Two models is all you need for all intra oral routine x-ray images, including bitewings (BWs), periapicals (PAs) and endodontic images with reamers and rubber dam in place. The on-board electronics provide the USB functionality allowing direct connection to the computer.Ī protective shield affixed to the interior wall of the rear housing protects the patient by preventing X-ray back scattering.DEXIS holders are the preferred choice for a large number of Henry Schein dental clients. The high resolution CMOS sensor features an exclusive architecture that maximizes active area at the pixel level to bring out the smallest details in the X-ray image.Ī 14-bit analog-to-digital converter generates 16,000 shades of gray to allow subtle variations in densities to be seen.Ī smart design places all the electronics on the sensor’s back to maximize the active imaging area. This efficient design allows a high signal-to-noise ratio resulting in clean images with virtually no visual noise. The light is then transmitted precisely to the sensor surface by Fiber optics.

Through advanced hardware and software technologies, the DEXIS Platinum Sensor delivers highly detailed, extremely clear, clinically meaningful images.Ī premium quality Caesium Iodide scintillator converts the X-ray beam into visible light and guides it through micro-columnar structures. The patented WiseAngle Cable Exit (shown above) helps patients better tolerate the procedure and provides cable flexibility to reduce stress and increase reliability. It also allows cable flexibility, reducing stress on the connection to increase reliability.īeveled corners, a smooth, rounded casing and the small, angled dome maximizes patient comfort and makes precise placement easy. Located on the sensor’s back, the patented WiseAngle Cable Exit eases positioning, and helps patients better tolerate the procedure. DEXIS is the first to offer gold plating on the sensor’s USB connector for better durability. There is no need for a separate adapter or docking station. And best of all, you need only a single sensor to take ALL X-ray images - vertical AND horizontal bitewings AND all periapicals. Since it’s hot-swappable with no adaptive device required, the sensor can easily be moved from room to room without disrupting workflow. The DEXIS direct-USB sensor is ultra-portable making it an affordable solution for multiple operatories. The ability to take vertical AND horizontal bitewings AND all periapicals with a single sensor eliminates the cost and inconvenience of using multiple sensors of different sizes. You benefit from a reduction in the number of exposure-related dental X-ray retakes, and your patients benefit from the reduction in radiation. That means you are able to get more clinically useable, more consistent images at a wider range of exposure settings. Through a combination of advanced hardware and software technologies, the DEXIS Platinum sensor is able to deliver clinically meaningful images that are extremely clear and highly detailed.įancy words, simple concept: DEXIS hardware and software work in harmony to compensate for radiation variances thus guarding against under and over exposure. The ability to see subtleties using digital radiography is crucial to diagnosis, collaboration, and patient communication. The DEXIS digital radiography system, with its state-of-the art DEXIS Platinum Sensor and intuitive, easy-to-use imaging software, provides numerous benefits to you, your practice and your patients. DEXIS delivers innovative, high quality digital imaging solutions to the dental community.
