Not many people like to visit the dentist. Therefore it is important that the use properties and materials of dental equipment are suited to a clinical environment and the equipment does not frighten patients. The dentist uses panorama x-ray equipment to photograph the patient’s teeth, with top-quality images supporting the right diagnosis. Orthopantomograph® is a trademark that has been known internationally since the 1960s. Its newest model, the OP200 employs digital imaging technology and has a contemporary language of form.
The professional skills of dentists lie elsewhere than in technology, making ease of use the starting point for industrial design in this area. The device has finger-tip control and its well-finished design also enhances the image of the dental care environment.
