According to the manufacturer Soredex, the sys- temoffersconsistentdiagnosticqual- ity with smart auto-optimization fea- turesthatadjustthegreylevelsofthe image and thus compensate acciden- tal over- or underexposures. The re- sult is sharp and high-contrast clini- cal image for diagnostic purposes. Soredex says that the DIGORA Optime system is intuitive and offers system guides for helping users find- ing the correct exposure settings. It does not accept improperly inserted imaging plate and makes it possible to use plates almost immediately after processing. The thin, flexible, and durable wireless imaging plates have a 100 per cent active area and are comfortable for the patient. The patented IDOT imaging plate identification system (optional) supports quality control. DIGORA Optime also comes with effective, proprietary hygiene accessories (Latex/PVC free, food grade hygiene bags with Biocompatibility accord- ing to ISO 10993-1 and Opticover protective cover). A standard network connection allows images from one DIGORA Optime to be accessed from multiple locations in the dental practice, the company said. Based on the experience gath- eredfromtensofthousandsofinstal- lations in various operatories world- wide, the Digora Optima is said to improve workflow in dental prac- tices significantly. SOREDEX first in- troduced the world’s first intraoral imaging plate system in 1994. SOREDEX, FINLAND www.soredex.com Hall 11.2 Booth N050 DIGORA OPTIME WiththeOTEquator4in1System, Rhein 83 has its newest line of low-profileoverdentureattachments on display at IDS. Available with a vertical height of 2.1 mm and dia- meter of 4.4 mm, this system was designed to offer multiple solutions for overdenture treatment planning when space limitations and diver- gence issues have to be considered. It is available with implant abut- ments as well as castable, prefabri- cated titanium threaded for CAD/ CAM and cast bar with passive con- nection for the Seeger system. Manufactured with a cuff height ranging from 0.5 mm to 7 mm and available for all implant brands, OT Equator implant abutments are cur- rently the smallest implant attach- ments on the market, the company said. The OT equator for bar connec- tions features a standard 2 mm thread which boasts a 1.6 mm tita- nium sleeve for bonding and the spacer. Dental laboratories will have two cost-effective options for placing the attachment on CAD/CAM milled or cast bar overdenture connections to their disposal. According to the company, technicians are able to choose between screwing the threaded Equator directly into a milled site, or make use of the base spacer and bonding sleeve with the help of traditional casting tech- niques. This is supposed to eliminate the need for drilling and tapping. Once the bar is cast, the Equator and sleeve are screwed together and bonded directly to the attachment lo- cation. Forindividualabutments,rootre- tained solution or castable bars, the castable solution is very cost effec- tiveandeasytouseespeciallyforlow profile solutions, the company said. The Seeger solution is supposed to offer dental technicians or den- tistsasolutionusinganimplantsbar with up to 50–60 degree divergence betweenimplantswithapassivecon- nection. Female retentive caps are retained by a stainless steel or tita- nium housing ranging in four levels of retention.
