Imaging Software

DentiMax Dental Imaging Software is a complete, open platform imaging system. This means that this open dental imaging software works with other dental x-ray sensors. As well as intraoral cameras, panoramic machines, and cephalometric units.

Additionally, it also works with DentiMax dental practice management software. You won’t have to deal with double-entry because our dental imaging software links or bridges with your practice management software.

DentiMax offers several software choices to meet your imaging software needs. That is to say it links to Dentrix®, Eaglesoft®, Softdent®, Easydental®, PracticeWorks®, and virtually all other practice management software. As a result, the software allows you to capture x-rays from any digital sensor you choose.
