Planning Implants with Planmeca ProMax 3D Classic & Romexis 3D Software

Planmeca Romexis 3D software

When it comes to implant planning, the features of the Planmeca ProMax 3D Classic make it an obvious choice for your practice. The medium 8 x 8 cm field of view can capture the entire dentition for a wide range of dental exams. The included Romexis 3D software can support any 2D or 3D images plus CAD/CAM applications.

Clinical Application

Without a CBCT system in your practice, you’ll likely be referring your patients out to another provider to capture 3D images, or you’ll have to rely on 2D scans for placing implants. When outsourcing dental cone beam imaging, your patients could be overcharged for the scan, and you risk the chance that they won’t return to your practice for treatment. Plus, you can’t always trust referrals to uphold the standard of care you provide to your patients.

Purchasing a dental CBCT may seem cost prohibitive at first, but let’s do some math. If you purchase a refurbished unit and use your existing unit as a trade-in for the down payment, you can greatly decrease the initial investment as well as the future monthly cost of the cone beam system. By either charging your patients for the scans, or providing them as a bonus with treatment, you are easily able to cover the monthly payments with greater treatment acceptance and continuance. Depending on the size of your practice and the number of treatments you can now keep in-house, you can double or triple those profits to see a greater ROI much sooner.

Unfortunately, we all know that 2D images cannot always offer the same amount of information as 3D images. Cone beam technology allows you to feel more confident about placing dental implants. You can easily identify cases that are appropriate for your skill level, or if you should refer them to a specialist. Additionally, you can share the images with the specialist, eliminating the need for the patient to be exposed to further radiation.

Medium Field of View Cone Beam

Planmeca ProMax 3D Classic includes several 3D field of view options to support most dental exams requiring the full dentition, making it a perfect choice for general dentists, implantologists, oral surgeons, endodontists, and more. The ProMax 3D Classic can also be adjusted to capture smaller views of the dental anatomy for more localized exams. For example, you can select the 8 x 5 cm FOV for single jaw applications, ideal for creating surgical guides. Or you can choose the high-definition 4 x 5 cm scan to support endodontics, third molar exams and single tooth applications. The impressive 75 μm resolution in this high-definition scan means you’ll capture even the finest anatomical details. The ability to target only the areas of interest helps you provide safer, more efficient patient examinations.

Built-In Panoramic

For routine implants or applications not requiring a 3D evaluation, the Planmeca ProMax 3D Classic includes dedicated panoramic imaging. This enables you to capture standard 2D panoramic and advanced panoramic images, including extraoral bitewings (subject to availability). Built-in dedicated 2D panoramic X-ray functionality provides the imaging flexibility and versatility you need to treat your dental patients safely and efficiently.

Romexis Software

Another advantage of purchasing Planmeca ProMax 3D Classic dental cone beam systems from Renew Digital is the included Romexis software that enables virtual implant planning as well as designing surgical guides. It helps you design the perfect smile for your patient, has an extensive implant library from dozens of manufacturers, alerts you to errors, builds surgical guides, and creates STL files to 3D print the surgical guides. With all this capability, the margin for error can be nearly eliminated, putting you and your patients at ease.
