Four heads are better than one

One of the most versatile aspects of Durr Dental's VistaCam iX is the interchangeable head mechanism. Four heads are available, one providing high resolution images of the oral

environment; a macro head for close-ups of up to 100 × zoom; a Proof head for caries diagnosis with a colour-coded scale; and an LED curing light. Data transmission is fully digital through

a USB port to a PC, or can function as a stand-alone version without a PC. The unit also holds the promise of additional heads being added in the future, which will further enhance its range

of applications. Durr has also set a benchmark in its design, winning the prestigious Red Dot Design Award in the process. The ergonomic head rotates a full 360 degrees to ensure that every

part of the oral cavity is easily accessible, and a motion sensor automatically switches the camera on and off to ensure efficient usage. Its smooth finish enables easy disinfection and

sheathing for cross infection. The VistaCam iX offers unrivalled functionality in a single device with multiple applications, perfectly complementing daily practice with an indispensable

tool. For more information call 01536 526740. RIGHTS AND PERMISSIONS Reprints and permissions ABOUT THIS ARTICLE CITE THIS ARTICLE Four heads are better than one. _Br Dent J_ 213, 371
