Zimmer adds XCPT case-acceptance software

Zimmer Dental andXCPT Communication Technologies have signed a three-year agreement to collaborate by incorporating XCPT's innovative software applications into Zimmer Dental's Digital Dentistry initiatives. With this agreement, Zimmer customers will be able to obtain licenses to a special version of the XCPT Patient Engagement System software customized exclusively for Zimmer, the companies announced.

As XCPT expands its product offerings in the future, the executive teams at Zimmer and XCPT will collaborate to create software products and functionality specifically targeted to Zimmer Dental customers' needs.

XCPT's software is a graphical, face-to-face patient consultation and engagement tool designed to help doctors communicate with patients by recognizing the importance of visual learning during treatment planning. With XCPT, the patient is involved in every step of the dental treatment process as the clinician uses the patient's own x-rays, CT scans, and/or photographs to communicate treatment options and solutions.

"With its use, we're seeing doctors improve patient understanding and increase case acceptance by simply showing the patient what they see," said XCPT CEO Steven Feldman, D.D.S., in a press release. "In addition, our software is an outstanding collaboration tool for the entire interdisciplinary dental team and works with all the existing hardware and software used in each individual office."
