"If you want to practice at the highest level, you need technology that performs at the highest level. For my practice, I chose the CS 8100 3D from Carestream Dental. In countless situations, I have altered my treatment plan based on what the images revealed.

If I didn’t have the cone beam here in my office, I can imagine being reluctant to refer a patient out for a scan. But with the convenience of having the CS 8100 3D onsite, I never hesitate to use it when a patient’s condition calls for it. This goes back to my goal of practicing at the highest level and following the recommendations of the AAE and AAOMR for using CBCT in my diagnoses and treatment.

One of the real benefits is how the system facilitates patient education. I rarely have a patient who is hesitant about my treatment plan. When I share the images produced by the CS 8100 3D, patients can easily comprehend the problem. They can see that I am making a well informed decision about the best course of action, whether it’s monitoring the area, undergoing treatment or referring out.

The compact size makes the CS 8100 3D a very practical choice. My office is approximately 1300 square feet, and it allows me the option of eventually moving the unit to a nook so that I can maximize operatory space.

While I do feel that the system is great, the strength is in the software. It is so user friendly and intuitive. After one training session I felt very comfortable working with it. The image quality might be similar to other cone beam units, but the Carestream Dental software really sets it apart.

Investing in this technology demonstrates a commitment to our patients’ well being in attempting to provide them with the highest quality of care they deserve. It has made a huge impact on my practice.”
