Orthopantomograph OP300

For the past 50 years, Instrumentarium Dental has been pioneering imaging systems designed for professionals, from the original Orthopantomograph® OP1 to the Orthopantomograph® OP300, one of the most comprehensive, three-in-one imaging systems on the market today. And according to the company, Instrumentarium’s years of experience guarantee customers a safe investment in their future.

The Orthopantomograph OP300 combines advanced panoramic imaging with cephalometric or cone-beam 3-D imaging to give professionals an adaptable platform.

In order to get accurate and clear panoramic radiographs, the form of the X-ray unit focal layer must follow the actual patient anatomy (the focal layer). The jaw shape and size varies between individuals according to their size, gender, race and age. Consequently, a single panoramic focal layer form does not suit all patients.

If the dentition falls outside of this focal area, images may appear unclear or slightly out of focus.

One of the new technological advances in panoramic imaging is the use of multilayer panoramic images. What this technology does is capture multiple panoramic focal layers with only one scan. This enables forgiving patient positioning and reduces possible retake exposures.

The big advantage with these multilayer images is that they are achieved in the same scanning time and dose as the traditional panoramic scan. This ensures that no matter what the patient dentition or anatomy, you should achieve a high-quality image while eliminating retake exposures.

The OP300 cone-beam 3-D option offers two fields-of-view (FOV) sizes with selectable resolution optimized for local diagnostics and for complete dental arch for multiple implant placement and operations with surgical guides. The two options, combined with integrated motorized chin rest, enable free FOV positioning within the maxillofacial area and ensure multiple different modalities.

Patient positioning is easy with the SmartView™ navigation system, where two-dimensional scout images are taken before the 3-D examination to adjust the target position from the graphic user interface screen. The procedure ensures perfect positioning of volumes toward patient anatomy and eliminates risks of retake exposures.

Features of the Orthopantomograph OP300 include:

Selectable FOV

  • 6 cm by 4 cm: A small FOV, optimized for local diagnostics such as single implant planning, third molar extractions and endodontic procedures, keeps the patient dose at a substantially reduced level.
  • 6 cm by 8 cm: An FOV covering the complete dental arch is suitable for multiple implant placement and operations using surgical guides.
  • Freely selectable FOV: This allows the clinician to set the FOV position according to his or her preference

Selectable 3-D resolution

  • Standard resolution: fast reconstruction, low dose
  • High resolution: for more detailed diagnostics

Compatibility with a variety of clinicians

  • General dentists who require an advanced panoramic system
  • Implantologist who need an advanced, small FOV 3-D system
  • Oral and maxillofacial surgeons who need an advanced panoramic and 3-D imaging system with high image quality and an FOV covering the entire dental arch
  • Orthodontists who require an advanced panoramic and cephalometric system with a high-quality 3-D option for impacted and retinated teeth

Anyone who wants a reliable, high-end imaging system for dental and maxillofacial imaging.
