Product: X-Vision Portable Handheld Dental X-Ray

The X-Vision is a lightweight and portable handheld Dental X-Ray from Flight Dental Systems.

Combining Canon’s X-Ray Generator and Panasonic’s Lithium Ion Battery, the X-Vision features one of the longest lasting batteries on the market for handheld dental x-rays, able to produce up to 800+ exposures in one charge. The X-Vision is even touted to “make traditional wall-mounted intraoral x-rays obsolete in the coming years”.

The advantages of portable Handheld X-Rays versus Fixed Mount X-rays are numerous.  These advantages plus Flight’s industry leading features makes it the obvious choice.

Its compact design affords dentists the flexibility of positioning the X-ray rather than the patient and sharing the unit in multiple operatories. The option to share the portable unit between rooms means dental practices can cut down on the number of x-ray machines per surgery and save both space and money.

It will also help to minimise the patient movements during the procedure, which is a major convenience factor when working with children, resulting in fewer “retakes”.

Boasting an integrated battery that purportedly allows more exposure between charges than competing other handheld models on the market further translates to less down time and higher efficiency.

According to Flight Dental Systems, the amount of radiation that the operator is exposed to is “less than 0.02% of the maximum annual radiation exposure rate when they take 24000 shots”.

“Compared to a patient who does a full mouth series they are exposed to approximately 2.48mr which represents 0.05% of their annual radiation dose in a single visit,” says the company.

“Therefore, handheld portable x-rays are not only safe to use for the operator but ultimately exposes the user to even less radiation which adheres to the ALARA principles for radiation.”

Flight Dental Systems is a Canadian dental equipment manufacturer and distributor of dental products with operations in over 25 countries around the world.
