The Simple Sleep Solution
04 I 05
MATRx plus™* with SICAT Air and OPTISLEEP is a complete 3D solution for the analysis and appliance-based
treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA).
The Simple Sleep Solution integrates comparative airway images using a Dentsply Sirona 3D Imaging system
and expands the SICAT Air and OPTISLEEP workflow by adding MATRx plus, making it the only solution
oering a complete workflow from airway analysis, diagnostics of OSA, oral appliance study, to the treatment
of OSA with a custom-fitted oral appliance.
MATRx plus
An innovative, easy-to-use tablet-based and cloud-connected
home sleep testing system, MATRx plus simplifies patient
selection for oral appliance therapy by identifying
responders and their eective target protrusive position in
advance of appliance fitting. This position and the respective
jaw relation are exactly transmitted into the final appliance with
SICAT Air via a fully digital workflow.
• Cloud-based connectivity streamlines sleep physician study
analysis, interpretation, and OSA diagnosis
• Knowing who to treat gives your patient
confidence in therapy
• Accurate prediction of target protrusion
eliminates guesswork and saves chairtime
• MATRx plus comes standard with

Orthodontics
Versatility, well-chosen programs and outstanding image quality are just a
few of the characteristics that make each member of the Orthophos family
a perfect partner in your practice. In Orthodontics, they oer safe and

3D endodontics
Does your practice oer endodontic treatments? This can often come
withmany challenges. Emergency patients that need treatment for elusive
canals and unpredictable pathology are just a few of the issues that you
may be faced with. 3D imaging visualizes hidden structures, reveals clinical
issues and makes it possible to address each situation individually.

SICAT Endo is a CBCT-based software providing
you the ability to create a clear map detailing
the route you will take into the canal, preparing
you for any dicult anatomical structures that
exist through realistic and detailed information.
Custom 3D image
Digital imaging oers unbeatable benefits for every dental practice,
creating a new standard for quality dental care. Whether overlaid
teeth, unexpected canals, hidden roots or in the case of orthodontic
surgery, a lower dose option for children, 3Dimages are invaluable
in a variety of clinical tasks. In addition, they simplify patient communication for greater acceptance of yourtreatment proposal.

Your advantages at a glance:
• 3D allows you to see structures that are often hidden in 2D X-rays
• Increased diagnostic confidence
• Clearer treatment presentation to patients
• Improved practice oering and as a result, increased growth
andprofitability
• Eliminates the need to refer your patient out for a CBCT scan

Precisely your volume –
More possibilities for your practice
When it comes to volume size, dose and image quality, every clinical case
has its own individual requirements. The Orthophos family combines
image quality and versatility. Choose the appropriate volume for your needs:
From the focused Ø 5 cm x 5.5 cm volume to the Ø 11 cm x 10 cm volume,
which can display the wisdom teeth and upper respiratory tract.

Additional available volumes (varies by model): Ø 8cm x 5. 5cm, Ø 11 cm x 8 cm, Ø 11 cm x 7.5 cm

patient’s unique situation:

MARS –
Metal Artifact Reduction Software
Metal artifacts are a challenge in
3D imaging. Radiopaque objects
create shadowing and streaking
eects during the threedimen sional reconstruction and
as a result can often interfere
with diagnostics. MARS

artifacts and facilitates the
diagnosis.

High Definition Mode (HD) –
Fine details for safe diagnostics
Standard Definition mode (SD) provides all of your basic clinical
information needed for a diagnosis, however in some cases it’s better
tofurther increase the quality of the X-ray image. In endodontics, for
example, you might need better visibility of fine structures for treatment
planning and implementation. For this purpose, the Orthophos oers
youHigh Definition mode (HD), in which up to 800 individual
images are recorded during one rotation and merged into a lownoise 3D volume with high resolution of up to 80 µm. This mode
guarantees a faster and safer diagnosis within the recorded
volume.

Low Dose –
CBCT in the dose range of a 2D image
The optimized Low Dose mode with a dedicated filter allows for the
imaging of dense structures, like bone, at a greatly reduced dose. This
makes Low Dose an ecient option for many clinical tasks – especially for
those in orthodontics or implantology. With the two 3D models in the
Orthophos family, you’re choosing on a case-by-case basis whether you
use high-resolution volumes for fine structures (HD) or a low-dose image
for minimal radiation exposure.
