Glidewell and Vatech Unite in Promoting Safer CBCT Technology
NEWPORT BEACH, Calif., July 22, 2020 (Newswire.com) - As a leading source of world-class clinical education and R&D, Glidewell is proud to partner with Vatech in showcasing the Vatech Green CT 2 system at the Glidewell campus in Irvine, California. The Green CT 2 improves patient care through low-dose X-ray radiography that provides more precise diagnostic images.
The new Green CT 2 18x10 CBCT system will be an integral tool for the Glidewell clinical affairs team, which leads virtual and in-person CE courses for tens of thousands of attendees each year.
“Dentists look to us to demonstrate the latest technologies during our educational programs. That is exactly why we chose the state-of-the-art Vatech Green CT 2 as our new 3D imaging solution,” said Dr. Neil Park, vice president of clinical affairs at Glidewell. “This system is a practitioner’s dream. It results in significantly lower radiation — supporting patients’ safety — while delivering high-quality images for accurate diagnosis.”
The Green CT 2 is an advanced 4-in-1 digital X-ray imaging system that incorporates PANO, CEPH, CBCT and 3D model scans. The system’s signature combination of ultralow-dose scanning technology and superb diagnostic images reflects Vatech’s expertise in digital dental radiography products.
To limit exposure, dentists can choose the most relevant field of view (FOV) size from five options, each tailored to distinct diagnostic needs. The Multi FOV feature of the Green CT 2 ranges from a 5x5 FOV size, suitable for single implants and endodontic procedures, to an 18x10 FOV for sinus and TMJ evaluations.
The scan times are impressively efficient as well, clocking in at 1.9 seconds for CEPH, 4.9 seconds for CBCT and 7 seconds for PANO.
With its full suite of benefits, the Green CT 2 is the new standard-bearer for low-dose digital X-ray imaging. The clinical affairs team at Glidewell looks forward to showcasing this premier system in comprehensive CE programs and wide-ranging R&D at the Glidewell hub of innovation in Orange County, California.
