ClikTech, a manufacturer of dental sensor and x-ray film holders, has introduced two new products: ShaRing universal ring and Litening rods.
ShaRing is a single ring designed to replace the need for three separate rings used in a full-mouth series. Anterior, posterior, and bitewing radiographs may now be taken with just one ring, according to the company. The ring is autoclavable and compatible with existing metal anterior, posterior, and bitewing rods from most manufacturers. It incorporates wire clips for any digital sensor.
Litening Rods eliminates the issues associated with conventional metal rods. Constructed of solid high-heat plastic resin, these rods are autoclavable, reusable, low cost, and lightweight. They also incorporate a wire clip to accommodate the latest in digital sensors and work with any standard anterior, posterior, or bitewing ring in addition to ShaRing, according to ClikTech.
