Dr. Peter Brothman’s Endodontic Practice Acquires the KODAK 9000 3D Extraoral Imaging System

Oct. 19, 2010 - PRLog -- October 19, 2010 – Bala Cynwyd, PA – With the addition of this state of the art 3D unit, Dr. Brothman’s Endodontic practice will greatly improve its level of patient care.  3D technology allows Dr. Brothman to better visualize his patients’ dentition, without having to send patients for radiology scans.  Viewing an unprecedented level of anatomical detail helps Dr. Brothman diagnose more accurately prior and during endodontic procedures.  The KODAK 9000 3D System transforms dental imaging in the same way that CT scans have changed the medical field, in terms of care through better visualization.

This unique “2 in 1” system (3D and 2D panoramic) is designed for dental professionals who regularly perform complex diagnostic, periodontic, restorative, surgical and endodontic procedures.  The high resolution imaging capabilities provided by this unit will enable clinicians to detect lesions and make diagnoses more accurately.  This breakthrough technology provides unprecedented x-ray views of the teeth and bone of the oral cavity.

Traditional dental x-ray diagnosis has been enhanced by the recent introduction of high resolution cone beam computed tomography (CBCT), allowing 3D assessment of many conditions, a few of which are, bony lesions, canal anatomy, retreatment cases, root fractures and implants.  Because the images are available in minutes, Dr. Brothman is able to perform a wider range of diagnoses and treatments in the office, helping reduce multiple visits and rescheduling, saving you time while making treatment more accurate.  The KODAK 9000 3D System emits low radiation that is equivalent to 2 traditional dental x-rays or 1.2 days of atmospheric background radiation.  Comfortable patient positioning and wheelchair accessibility make this unit patient-friendly.  

Benefits include:
•   High resolution images – Dr. Brothman can view your teeth and oral structures  more clearly.
•   Less radiation – The unit only radiates the area being treated.
•   Improved patient care – Dr. Brothman can perform a wider range of diagnoses, helping reduce multiple visits, saving you time and money.
•   Comfortable positioning and wheelchair accessibility is patient friendly.
