Dentrix Imaging overview

Dentrix Imaging is a 2D and 3D dental imaging software module that interacts seamlessly with Dentrix to provide efficient and versatile image management. Dentrix Imaging manages intraoral and extraoral X-rays/volumes as well as intraoral and extraoral color images produced by intraoral video and/or consumer digital cameras.

You can acquire, import, export, view, and edit 2D images and 3D volumes of dental anatomy. Dentrix Imaging supports the acquisition of images from many brands of intraoral and extraoral imaging devices, which allows you to mix and match imaging devices and brands of equipment as needed.

All images that you acquire or import are uploaded immediately to the Dentrix database.

Dentrix Imaging has many image processing tools (such as filters and enhancements) that you can use on images to help determine the necessary treatments for patients. Also, you can attach images that you acquire and import to dental e-claims.

If you subscribe to Connected Care Essentials, Dentrix Imaging installs when you install the Dentrix practice management program.

Dentrix Imaging is used for diagnostic purposes in the field of dentistry.

By default, Dentrix Imaging uses lossless compression for all intraoral and extraoral x-ray images, which is 100 percent reversible and does not result in loss of data. Optionally, you can configure Dentrix Imaging to use lossy JPEG compression when acquiring intraoral and extraoral images, which is not 100 percent reversible and does result in loss of data. The JPEG compression Q factor used in Dentrix Imaging is Q96, which is considered near perfect quality. Dentrix Imaging uses lossy compression (JPEG) for all intraoral and extraoral color images.
