WHY DENTAL X-RAY? “You’d be hard placed to find another piece of equipment that ticks those elusive three boxes of good investment more effectively.” Dramatically improves patient care and decision making Delivers solid profit Does not need a specialist level of training to deploy Dr Dave Nicol, MRCVS. Intraoral radiographs have revealed underlying pathology in 27.8% of dogs and 41.7% of cats where no abnormal findings were found on oral examination alone. * Cats and dogs are their own worst enemy as they hide pain. Dental x-ray is a visual way of conveying to the owner their pets discomfort and will also effectively demonstrate asymptomatic pathology that may require treatment. The teeth might present with no abnormal findings on the surface but an x-ray demonstrating abscesses, resorption or ankylosis demonstrates to the owner that treatment is required. Finding more pathology and planning treatment will confirm your role as a caring, effective veterinary professional. Don’t ask clients if they want x-rays taken, tell them why you need to take x-rays. Human dentists take x-rays when you visit. It should be no different for a vet practice as you need to see what is happening below the gum where a whole world awaits that you just can’t see without x-ray. With dental x-ray you can say with confidence that you are giving your patients the highest level of care and treatment. The key is to make the cost of x-ray affordable for the client. Keep in mind that it takes only 5 minutes to perform x-rays for a full mouth and the animal is already sedated on the table. CR image plates have long life, low initial cost, and are reusable with consumable costs minimal. One dental per week will generate sufficient income to comfortably justify the cost of bringing dental x-ray into your practice.

Use the large format imaging field of the size 4 and size 5 dental plates to produce high resolution extremity and exotics images. Imagine being able to identify a grass seed in a paw, or a hairline fracture of a rabbit’s metatarsal. A CR7 in your practice will take your diagnostic capability to a higher level. * Verstraete FJ et al. Diagnostic value of full-mouth radiography in dogs. AM J Vet Res 1998; 59(6): 692-5. Verstraete FJ et al. Diagnostic value iM3 Wall mounted or mobile x-ray units are designed specifically for veterinary use to produce dental x-rays quickly and accurately I have used a number of DR systems in the past, both in veterinary and human practice (Schick, Sirona, Kodak and Genoray), but I would have to say that the results and image quality that I am getting with the iM3 CR7 Vet is the best so far. We had purchased a DR dental X-ray unit 5 years ago but my staff (and me) had lost energy due to the ageing software. The advantages of the CR7 Vet over other DR systems when used in the veterinary environment include a unique range of plate sizes from size 0 up to size 5, which covers all pets from small to large. There is even an intraoral plate for rabbits.” We have just updated to the IM3 CR7 which produces fantastic images with ease and is far superior to our old DR system. “CR7 gives outstanding radiographic images. The availability of a full range of dental plate sizes enables easy imaging of domestic cats and dogs of all sizes and shapes, even giant breeds.” David A.

TEAR HERE DENTAL X-RAY A NEW APPROACH! iM3 knows veterinary dentistry is an untapped goldmine in most practices. When 80% of dogs and 70% of cats over 3 years of age have some form of dental pathology*, the opportunity to generate practice income is significant. Dental x-ray is an extremely powerful tool for both recognising, diagnosing and treating pathology that is difficult to find on oral examination as the pathology remains hidden below the gumline. iM3 Bisecting Angle Guide X8000 So why not make greater use of dental x-ray?
