Carestream Dental has updated its Logicon caries detector software and launched an online community to support software users.
The v5.2 software updates include organized menus, simplified icons, and a new black interface, the company said.
Clinical studies show Logicon more than doubles the capability to find early caries in the dentin compared with traditional visual diagnostic methods, and it helps dentists find up to 20% more interproximal caries on permanent teeth, according to the company.
Carestream's new online resource, the Exchange, allows users to network and share software knowledge. Users can pose questions to Carestream Dental experts and gives other users a chance to provide their own answers to participants. It also includes product-specific documents, such as FAQs, tips, and how-to guides.
