Imagine having the power to slow down time during complex procedures, or speed it up during more tedious, time-consuming tasks that regularly top your to-do list. Alternatively, what if you could immediately communicate with your patients, understanding their unique fears, concerns, and discomforts without them uttering a single word.
While clinicians may not possess any of these supernatural abilities, those armed with CARINA 1.5 digital intraoral sensors—exclusively available through Henry Schein—have a cutting-edge technological advantage that grants them a form of extraordinary x-ray vision.
Reliable Design, Remarkable Value
With advanced technology, the CARINA sensor delivers clear, reliable radiographic images, reducing the number of retakes and the amount of radiation exposure. “The image quality is excellent and always consistent,” said Dr. Jim Cox. “It is quick and easy to get bitewings, and it is probably the most valuable for full-mouth series. It makes doing a set of x-rays that much easier.”
The CARINA sensor also helps clinicians save time and money in their practices, with its outstanding performance improving imaging procedures and overall workflows at a remarkable value. It features a one-size, ergonomic design, and its smooth edges and clipped corners ensure patient comfort, too. “We have not had any issues with wire breakage or patient’s bite, and for our patients, it has been business as usual with no complaints,” Dr. Cox said.
Easy Software Integration
“I look at value, cost, and ease of software integration when shopping for a new sensor,” said Dr. Andrea Russell. “The sensor was very easy to integrate with Dentrix.”
As a matter of fact, the CARINA sensor can easily integrate into a practice’s existing digital systems. “When we found the CARINA sensor, the combination of price and compatibility with our software won us over,” Dr. Cox said.
The CARINA digital sensor starter kit includes 1 CARINA sensor, 100 disposable barrier sleeves to prevent cross-contamination between patients, a positioning system to help align the x-ray source beam with the sensor and anatomy, and a user guide to become familiar with the sensor and its techniques prior to patient care. The sensors are backed by a generous 2-year warranty.
