3D Imaging

More precise diagnoses, clearer explanations: 3D imaging has many benefits. Be it overlaid teeth, unexpected nerve channel paths, concealed roots, or temporomandibular joint anomalies, the value 3D images provide in diagnostics is unmeasurable.

Custom 3D Imaging

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.


3D Units

Axeos

The versatile 2D/3D hybrid unit with a big FOV and high image quality for practices with a wide treatment spectrum. Axeos convinces not only with its high-caliber performance, but also with its focus on comfort and design as well.

Orthophos S 3D

This All-round 2D/3D hybrid unit offers a full range of capabilities to support all of the 2D and 3D tasks in your practice. Thanks to its flexible volume sizes and adjustable dose options, you have a great partner to support your workflows.

Benefits at a Glance

Axeos and Orthophos are based on a proven successful hardware platform and software system. This gives you:

Volumes according to your diagnostic needs

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.

Efficient diagnostics thanks to exceptional image quality

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.

Broader practice offering with modern treatment solutions

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.

Keep your practice running reliably thanks to proven quality

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.

Reproducible results thanks to easy handling

Thanks to our Patient Positioning & Image Assistant concept, easy positioning and X-ray capture are simple. You receive high-quality images to support your treatment analysis and a high level of comfort for the patient and assistant.


Feature Highlights of our 2D/3D Hybrid Family:

Variety of volumes

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.

No shine on MARS

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.  

High Definition mode (HD)

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. visualization of fine root canals, high definition (HD) mode shows all necessary details at just the click of a button.

Patient Positioning & Image Assistant

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 the tools needed to ensure high-quality images for treatment analysis and focuses on ergonomics and comfort for the patient and assistant. The patented bite block technology, for example, automatically establishes the correct inclination of the patient's head, positioning the patient in the occlusal plane, partnering with the 3 point head fixation and firm handles to ensure stable positioning-limiting unnecessary correction scans.

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, the Orthophos SL 3D and the Orthophos S 3D 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.


15 Use Cases around the World

No matter where they live, our authors have one thing in common: they use Orthophos SL for unclear diagnoses and complex cases. Find out more about the use of Orthophos SL for 3D imaging.

2D Panoramic Imaging: Revolutionary Technologies

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.

Ceph arm

Cephalometric Imaging

Axeos, Orthophos S 3D and Orthophos SL 3D 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. 

Ceph programs that cover all orthodontic needs

Using a dedicated sensor, you get lateral and symmetrical p.a. or a.p. as well as carpus images. For displaced teeth, you can also use 3D x-rays to determine their exact location.
