Premium quality dental CBCT images
Movement, metal artifacts, and small voxel sizes are recognised as challenges to the quality of dental CBCT images. With Planmeca 3D units and their advanced image enhancement options, you can rise above these concerns and succeed every time. The options can either be selected preventively before imaging or utilised afterwards to achieve reliable results. The choice is yours!
SCARA technology
Our patented SCARA (Selectively Compliant Articulated Robot Arm) technology guarantees an anatomically accurate imaging geometry. The SCARA arm can produce any movement pattern required. This enables accurate and reliable volume positioning and volume diameter adjustment, resulting in clear and error-free dental CBCT images and reducing the doses patients are exposed to.
Convenient imaging tools
With a complete set of tools for image viewing, enhancement, measurement, drawing and annotations, our Planmeca Romexis® software is great for improving the diagnostic value of dental CBCT images. The software consists of different modules, so you can choose the ones that suit your needs best. Convenient import and export functionalities are also included.
Metal artefact reduction
Metal restorations and root fillings can cause shadows and streaks in dental CBCT images. Our intelligent Planmeca ARA™ algorithm removes these artefacts efficiently and reliably. The algorithm is the result of extensive scientific research and available for all Planmeca 3D units.
Noise removal algorithm
Our Planmeca AINO™ algorithm is a fantastic way to achieve noise-free dental CBCT images without losing valuable details. The algorithm improves image quality when using small voxel sizes and allows lowering exposure values by reducing noise. Planmeca AINO is available for all our 3D units.
Endodontic mode
Our endodontic imaging mode provides perfect visualisation of even the finest anatomical details. This advanced imaging mode is an ideal choice for endodontics and other cases dealing with small details. It produces an extremely high resolution with a 75 μm voxel size, enabling precise diagnostics and treatment plans.
Optimised imaging modes
All Planmeca 3D imaging units feature a wide range of advanced imaging modes – from low dose imaging with minimal patient doses to capturing the best resolutions with the smallest sizes. The units offer voxel sizes from 600 to 75 μm.
Ultra Low Dose mode Voxel size 600 μm
For capturing images with a minimal patient dose (ideally suited for orthodontic, pediatric and sinus studies).
Low Dose mode Voxel size 400 μm
Used for jaw factures, TMJ and small-to-large volume sizes.
Normal mode Voxel size 200 μm
The best choice for most common imaging needs.
High resolution mode Voxel size 100 μm
Provides more detailed dental CBCT images when required.
High definition mode Voxel size 150 μm
Designed for imaging small objects, such as ear bones.
Endodontic mode Voxel size 75 μm
Offers the best resolution with the smallest size.
