• Radiographic Template

The CephX Service

The offices of CT-Dent provides a digital cephalometric radiograph of patients’ referred by their dentists. “Dentists sending their patients to us expect nothing but the highest accuracy tracing and professional analysis report. It is a challenge to train our personnel and maintain the professional level we’re expected to provide over time, and it is even more challenging to keep an equal level of accuracy across all offices”, says Kfir Atias. “Using the CephX service we know our cases are handled in a constant level of accuracy, and training is no longer a barrier for providing the service in new offices”.

CephX Artificial-Intelligence based algorithm performs automatic, immediate Cephalometric analysis, a template of dental and skeletal relationship of human skull, used by orthodontists and oral and maxillofacial surgeons as a treatment planning tool. CephX works from the cloud, providing service to over 1,000 users world-wide, also integrated into leading European dental-imaging manufacturers such as Sirona, Planmeca and NewTom.

“Since CephX introduced their AI driven ceph tracing CT-Dent is able to send back the analysis to the clinician same day, saving time and increasing their efficiency”, continues Kfir Atias. “Knowing that the AI service is backed by CephX highly professional and experienced team gives us peace of mind with our ceph tracings. We look forward for their future AI products for automatic implant planning, radiology reports and liaison diagnosis.”
