SAN FRANCISCO – Carestream Dental today launched the CS 8100 digital panoramic
system at the American Dental Association (ADA) Annual Session, being held through
Oct. 21 in San Francisco. Carestream Dental is also showcasing recent releases,
including the CS 9300 Select, CS SoftDent v15.0 and CS PracticeWorks v7.5, which
together put superior 3D imaging within reach of more practitioners and streamline
practice workflows.
The new CS 8100 digital panoramic system features the latest imaging technology,
offering practitioners a variety of imaging programs to obtain high-quality images
effortlessly for improved diagnoses and treatments. With its compact footprint, the CS
8100 can be placed in even the smallest spaces.
Supporting the day-to-day panoramic imaging needs of practices, the CS 8100’s
capabilities include panoramic imaging (for adults and pediatric patients) as well as
segmented panoramic, TMJ and maxillary sinus imaging. The unit offers practitioners an
intuitive user interface and computer control system that makes exams quick and simple.
The system also comes with pre-set programs that minimize the setup required for
exams, saving time and reducing operator errors.
In addition to its versatile imaging options, the CS 8100 also comes with exclusive 2D+
technology that enables practitioners to create slices at regular intervals along the jaw to
focus on one area of interest and visualize more details than standard 2D images reveal.
These images can help practitioners determine the location of supernumerary teeth, find
impactions and apical lesions, or identify the root relationship to the inferior alveolar
canal.
“Designed with practices’ workflows in mind, the CS 8100 makes panoramic imaging
easier and faster for practitioners, with high-quality images accessible in seconds,” said
Edward Shellard, D.M.D., chief marketing officer and director of business development
for Carestream Dental. “This unit also sets new standards for ease of patient positioning,
ensuring better image quality while offering greater patient comfort.”
For practices ready for 3D imaging, Carestream Dental’s new CS 9300 Select is tailored
to meet any practice’s diagnostic needs and budget. A new addition to the CS 9300
family, the CS 9300 Select is complete with 3D cone beam computed tomography
(CBCT) and 2D digital panoramic imaging in addition to an optional cephalometric
