Examine a precise area with a FoV of Ø 5 cm x 5.5 cm or evaluate the complete dentition including temporomandibular joints with Ø 17 cm x 13 cm. Whether HD images in high resolution or low-dose images in the dose range of 2D images, our systems adapt to your individual patient case. These are just some of the advantages you receive with our 3D X-ray solutions.
Axeos and Orthophos are based on a proven successful hardware platform and software system. This gives you:
From a focused field of view for endodontic questions (Ø 5 cm x Ø 5.5 cm) up to a large field of view (Ø 17 cm x Ø 13 cm) that covers complete dentition, including both TMJs and the cranial base, defined by nasion and sella.
Always following the ALARA principle, our 2D/3D hybrid solutions make sure that you can count on the image quality you need for the given indication at the lowest possible dose.
Our smart treatment solutions are perfect companions for our x-ray units, giving you new possibilities for your practice offering, now and into the future.
Proudly "Made in Germany" quality and more than 100,000 units sold worldwide, we can say one thing for sure: Our Extraoral Imaging Solutions stand for best-in-class reliability.
Thanks to our Patient Positioning & Image Assistant concept, easy positioning and X-ray capture are simple.
Our fields of view have been developed to match your needs. Starting with a focused 5 cm x 5.5 cm FoV for endodontic or single implant cases up to 17 cm x 13 cm for the complete dentition and upper airway analysis, you decide which volume is the right one for you.
Metal artifacts present a challenge for 3D imaging. With three-dimensional reconstruction, radiopaque objects create shadows and streaking effects on the X-ray image. This is especially true for patients with metal restorations, these artifacts make diagnostics more problematic. The MARS software (metal artifact reduction software) reduces metal artifacts in 3D images significantly. This improves the image quality substantially and renders diagnostics with less complication.
At standard settings, Dentsply Sirona imaging units are set to SD (Standard definition) mode with a supreme balance of image quality and dose value for everyday practice life. For certain indications, i.e. visualisation of fine root canals, high definition (HD) mode shows all necessary details at just the click of a button.
We developed a 10-point concept for easy patient positioning and X-ray imaging. Our concept is primarily about two things: high image quality and comfort for the patient and the assistant. This concept supports and provides
3D technology is becoming increasingly well-established in dental practices around the world. For more precise diagnoses and treatment explanations, 3D X-rays offer a number of advantages. Whether with superimposed teeth, unexpected nerve canal paths, hidden roots, or temporomandibular joint anomalies, 3D images are invaluable for a large number of diagnoses.
With the Axeos and Orthophos S from Dentsply Sirona, several hundred individual images are produced when taking a 3D X-ray in the space of just a few seconds. Using this data, the software generates a 3D image of the jaw area. The practitioner is then able to take a "virtual tour" of the scanned volume and assess the data from every dimension.

8 cm x 8 cm implant case
5 cm x 5 cm HD 80µm case

Even though 3D X-rays are becoming increasingly established in a growing number of dental practices, in many cases 2D imaging still has a rightful place. This is largely due to radiation hygiene, which is a core component of modern dental diagnostics. In terms of improvements in image quality, the options available in 2D technology are far from exhausted. 2D X-ray devices from Dentsply Sirona score highly in daily handling, thanks to technical innovations for unparalleled sharp images and operation that leaves nothing to be desired.

Orthophos XG 3D and Orthophos S 3D both offer the capability to install a cephalometric arm at any time. To be sure it fits in your X-ray room, the arm can be mounted either on the right side or left side of the unit.
Using a dedicated sensor, you get lateral and symmetrical p.a. or a.p. as well as carpus images. In cases of displaced teeth, you can also fall back on the benefits of 3D X-rays to determine their exact location.

The requirements actually follow those for the image processing software, Sidexis 4.
Yes, the Axeos works exclusively with Sidexis 4. But data migration from Sidexis XG to Sidexis 4 is very easy.
Axeos units feature a characteristic, compact design to fit even in small x-ray rooms with ease.
