Dentsply Sirona has a well-designed product family following your needs. The Orthophos 2D X-ray units are supplied with the Dentsply Sirona Imaging software, Sidexis 4, to deliver better, safer and faster diagnostics.
Always following the ALARA principle, our 2D imaging family makes sure that you can count on the image quality you need for the given indication at the lowest possible dose.
Proudly "Made in Germany" and sold more than 100,000 times worldwide, we can say one thing for sure: Orthophos units stand for best in class reliability.
Thanks to our Patient Positioning & Image Assistant concept, easy positioning and X-ray capture are simple. You receive high-quality images to support your treatment analysis and a high level of comfort for the patient and assistant.
No dark room, no chemicals, less running costs, less dosage, faster workflows. These are just some of the benefits our digital 2D family brings to your practice.
We developed a 10-point concept for easy patient positioning and X-ray imaging. Our concept is primarily about two things: high image quality and comfort for the patient and the assistant. This concept supports and provides the tools needed to ensure high-quality images for treatment analysis and focuses on ergonomics and comfort for the patient and assistant.
The patented bite block technology, for example, automatically establishes the correct inclination of the patient's head, positioning the patient in the occlusal plane, partnering with the 3 point head fixation and firm handles to ensure stable positioning-limiting unnecessary correction scans.
Even though 3D X-rays are increasingly becoming established in a growing number of dental practices, in many cases 2D imaging still has a rightful place, largely due to radiation hygiene. It is a core component of modern dental diagnostics. In terms of improvements in image quality, the options available in 2D technology are far from exhausted. 2D X-ray devices from Dentsply Sirona score highly in daily handling thanks to technical innovations for unparalleled sharp images and operation that leaves nothing to be desired.
Panoramic image quality is constantly evolving

Orthophos SL 2D, Orthophos S 2D and Orthophos E offer the capability to install a cephalometric arm at any time. In addition, to be sure it fits in your X-ray room, the arm can be mounted on either the right side or left (Orthophos E just left) side of the unit.
Using a dedicated sensor, you get lateral and symmetrical p.a. or a.p. as well as carpus images.

For more details please see Sidexis 4 system requirements
Dentsply Sirona 2D units work exclusively with Sidexis 4. Nevertheless data migration from Sidexis XG to Sidexis 4 is very easy. Sidexis 4 allows for the full digital experience with the latest tools.
The Orthophos XG 3D ready and the Orthophos SL 2D allow a 3D upgrade. The other models (Orthophos XG 3 and Orthophos XG 5) do not offer this option.
