Ask anyone in dentistry today, and they are likely to express that while dental implant treatment has been around for nearly 30 years, it is on the verge of becoming the standard for restorative care involving edentulism in any degree. Add into this mix a consumer patient base savvy to the benefits afforded by implants through mass-market and targeted marketing, and dental professionals are seeing t he potential to grow their businesses along the entire treatment spectrum—from planning to placement to final restoration—through an expanded menu of services to accommodate this trend.

Dentists, ear-nose-and-throat (ENT) physicians, and pulmonologists (respiratory physicians) all work within very precise areas of the mouth, sinuses, and/or throat to treat their patients. For this reason, three-dimensional CT scans can be very beneficial in enabling them to provide the most accurate diagnosis and treatment planning for their patients.

AFP Imaging Corporation is proud to announce its Fourth International NewTom Day, to be held in Verona, Italy on July 10 and 11, 2008. This symposium represents a unique opportunity to bring end users and distributors of NewTom 3D Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) scanners together to attend important lectures on new and proven applications of CBCT technology.

AFP Imaging Corporation is proud to announce a 25% reduced scan time on its NewTom VG Cone Beam Scanner. The newly reduced scan time lessens the likelihood of patient movement, allowing practitioners the ability to take higher-quality images. These shorter scan times and higher-quality images means less retakes and potentially faster, more accurate diagnosis for both the patient and practitioner.

AFP Imaging Corporation announced today that its Dent-X division has introduced the NewTomTM VG (Vertical Generation) Cone Beam Computed Tomography Scanner as part of the educational seminar, “Into the Third Dimension: The Present Future of Dental Care,” at the American Dental Association (ADA) Annual Session in San Francisco’s Moscone Center September 27 - 30, 2007.
