Visteo Intraoral X-ray Sensor
The Visteo intraoral x-ray sensor is the 1st intraoral induction sensor with integrated positioning. Through the use of the universal angulator you can cover all image acquisition requirements. The Visteo intraoral x-ray sensor offers 7 predefined positions and the possibility to freely use other positions with stability.
Visteo is a new concept in dental radiography with a unique built in positioning system. A sensor, control box and universal angulator with transmission from the sensor by induction. This new technology provides the practitioner with all the study possibilities of intraoral radiological imaging. Visteo is the only inductive intraoral sensor to combine freedom of movement with ease of diagnosis.
Features
The 1st intraoral sensor with integrated positioning and inductive coupling.
- Immediate selection of the sensor’s position.
- 7 predefined positions or free angulation.
- Parallel and bisecting poitioning techniques.
- Integrated, universal sensor-angulator with an infinite number of positions.
- Notched, snap-fit head which simplifies image acquisition.
- Versatile use of the angulator or the direct sensor cable.
Visteo intraoral x-ray sensor combines all types of angulators into one single positioner and enables the acquisition of all types of images including periapical, posterior, bitewing & endo.
The rigid angulator ensures stable parallel positioning. The angulator rotation covers all image acquisition requirements. Visteo offers standard (predefined) positions and the possibility to freely use other positions with stability.
A single tool for all your intra-oral xrays.
Two biteblocks are included for the comfort of your patients. Being clipped on the angulator, each of the interchangeable biteblocks provides a stable positioning of the jaw during image acquisition.
Stainless steel angulator to protect the connection cable. The transmission cable, traditionally exposed to the patients’ mouth is now protected in a stainless steel tube, itself integrated into the angulator. With this system, the cable disappears and is completely protected against accidental damage from biting.
Transmission by induction. Both size 1 & 2 sensors snap on to the angulator’s connector. The selected sensor is then instantaneously connected and operational through induction, a unique system patented by Owandy.
Health and safety. Integration of the cable in the angulator optimises the hygiene of the device. Being connected by induction, the sensor is independent. As there is no wire to disturb the placement in the mouth, any contamination problem is eliminated. The transmission of data from the sensor to the angulator is done without any point of contact. The head of the arm transmits the sensor data by induction.
Both the practitioner and the patient can take advantage of new technology.
The Visteo concept is a valuable contribution to the practice’s image. It strengthens the trust shared with patients. Staying in contact with your patients to prepare image acquisition and only using a single angulator saves you valuable time. Thanks to the Visteo concept, comfort for patient and practitioner is improved.
Mobility and sharing.
The new snap-on system to attach sensors to the angulator provides great ease of use. It is instantaneous, convenient, ergonomic and offers the advantage of selecting the angle for the image acquisition at a touch. Light and convenient with reduced dimensions for ease of handling by the practitioner, the Visteo control box is the is the same one for both types of sensor (T1 and T2). The same control box can be used on several chairs in shared mode.
Surprisingly compact for easy daily use, Visteo intraoral sensors come in two sizes :
- T1 = 600 mm2 (active area).
- T2 = 900 mm2 (active area).
Ease of use and high definition.
Precision, readability, adaptability: decisive advantages with an extremely high definition >25 lp/mm, Visteo sensors reflect the very latest advances in digital technology (CMOS).
traditional positioning system for all intra-oral xrays.
- For endodontics, in vertical mode with integral alveolar retro images.
- In horizontal mode in “Bitewing” format to display with ease up to 4 teeth (with the Size 2 sensor).
- Result: simple to use, easier diagnosis.
Visualise directly the orientation of the sensor during the selected image acquisition and take advantage of all the treatment and diagnostic possibilities of the Owandy software.
