Digital Intraoral Sensors and Consumables Market

Market Introduction

Advancements in medical image technologies are continuously increasing the demand for digital intraoral sensors and consumable devices. The digital intraoral sensors, intraoral phosphor storage plates, dental image plate scanners, and intraoral cameras are majorly designed to treat oral problems. Digital intraoral sensors are x-ray imaging equipment that conveys improved resolution images to dentists for better treatment.

Digital intraoral sensors are more advanced in comparison to conventional radiography films, as intraoral sensors send images directly to the connected computer or other devices. Intraoral sensors are wired directly or work on a wireless technology to communicate with a computer. Digital intraoral sensors offer superior diagnostic images that are essential for a successful endodontic treatment and implant surgery.

Consumable dental devices include intraoral phosphor storage plates, dental image plate scanners, and intraoral cameras. Intraoral phosphor storage plates eliminate the need for conventional film processing for dental radiography. Phosphor storage plates can change existing film-based cephalometric and panoramic images to digital images. Intraoral phosphor storage plates provide high-resolution images, instant observation of X-rays, and wireless capabilities.

Intraoral image plate scanners are used to scan phosphor storage plates. Intraoral cameras are the same as dental mirrors in terms of shape and size. It has a built-in light source and a tiny camera that allows general dental practitioners to zoom on a particular area in the mouth. The captured images are viewed on a computer or another output device to observe problems such as plaque deposits, cavities next to fillings, and cracked teeth.
