Improved Diagnostics
Traverse City Dentist Dr. Klym [6] can now determine a diagnosis more accurately and more quickly, helping to minimize repeat visits, saving patients time and money. âBefore I even start, I can see the whole three-dimensional anatomy of the root canal where before I could not.â Dr. Klym said.
Comfort
Tailored specifically for a patient to sit facing outward, the Kodak 9000 allows patients to see their Northwood caregiver as the scans are performedâmaking it a more comfortable experience. âYou stand up in the machine, no confined feeling. Itâs a very open room and you can look out a window at a calming natural meadow. The average scan is only 24 seconds."
Technology
The Kodak 9000 shows high-resolution images, allowing Dr. Klym to perform more informed and precise procedures. âI get a three-dimensional âmodelâ of the bone, and that allows me to see things that I canât see two dimensionally,â said Dr. Klym. âI can take precise measurements.â
Safety
The Kodak 9000 uses significantly less radiation than many other imaging systems. As Dr. Klym explains, â[Other] medical scanners acquire images that use radiation doses of 40-60 times that of the cone beam that weâre using. Ours is even less than the typical cone beam, so itâs more like other scanners are 80 times more.â

The Kodak 9000 imaging system allows Dr. Klym to capture and view three-dimensional images of a patientâs mouth, allowing for an unprecedented level of anatomical detailâand a comprehensive assessment of a patientâs oral health.
