CARINA 1.5 Digital Intraoral Sensor

Behind every photo is a photographer, capturing the precious moment with the help of a single word: “Smile.” But when it comes to preserving these picture-perfect smiles, clinicians must carefully position a digital x-ray sensor between patients' teeth with the help of 2 other words: "Bite down."

“I look at value, cost, and ease of software integration when shopping for a new sensor,” said Andrea Russell, DMD, who practices in Canton, GA. Luckily, the CARINA 1.5 Digital Intraoral Sensor—exclusively available through Henry Schein—easily checks each of these 3 boxes.

Exceptional Performance

“We chose the CARINA sensor in my practice based on the cost and recommendation from our rep,” Dr. Russell said. “The sensor quality is good.”

Effectively used for diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring of dental structures, the CARINA digital sensor features premium technology that delivers great performance at an excellent value. Its ergonomic, one-size design includes clipped corners and smooth edges to improve patient comfort, and its outstanding image quality reduces the number of retakes and the amount of radiation exposure.

The CARINA digital sensor starter kit includes 1 CARINA sensor, 100 disposable intraoral sensor barrier sleeves to prevent cross-contamination between patients, a positioning system to help align the x-ray source beam with the sensor and anatomy, and a user guide to become familiar with the sensor and its techniques prior to patient care.

Seamless Integration

Another key feature of the CARINA digital sensor is its easy integration with existing digital systems. “The sensor was very easy to integrate with Dentrix,” Dr. Russell said. By limiting the learning curve and leveraging current in-office equipment, clinicians can save time and money when upgrading to the CARINA sensor while enhancing the efficiency of their imaging procedures and overall workflows. The CARINA sensor is also backed by a generous 2-year warranty.
