MELVILLE, New York — (June 5, 2013) — Air Techniques, Inc., a leading innovator and manufacturer of dental equipment, is pleased to announce the latest solution for digital radiography with the all new ScanX Swift™.

ScanX Swift is a chairside digital radiography system that is fast, easy, more comfortable for patients and offers a better value for the dental practice. Using flexible, cordless phosphor sensors, ScanX Swift delivers exceptional diagnostic clarity while offering a convenient workflow for the dental staff. This digital system fits on the countertop in the operatory and produces images in 9 seconds or less. It provides a larger image area, greatly reducing the need for retakes. The workflow with the ScanX Swift is virtually identical to film. It’s the same easy technique but with sharp, high contrast digital images in a fraction of the time, and no messy, costly chemicals.

“Every day I have situations where it is difficult to get the radiographs we need: patients with small mouths who cannot open as wide as needed, or with pronounced tori that hurt when we use a rigid sensor. With Scanx’s thin, flexible phosphor sensors, these issues are nonexistent, and we can easily get 100% of the images we need.” Said Ron Kaminer, DDS.

“ScanX Swift is the most nimble digital radiography device that we’ve ever shipped,” said Jay Ramachandran, Senior Product Manager at Air Techniques. “Using our flexible, thin and wireless phosphor sensors, Swift is a digital imaging solution that enables dentists to capture 100% of the radiographs they want from children or elderly patients without causing any discomfort in just 9 seconds; so we think dentists and patients are going to love it.”
