Intra-oral images and X-rays — captured, stored and annotated inside the patient chart. metaDENT Dental Imaging integrates directly with intra-oral sensors, TWAIN-compatible scanners and cameras so clinicians never leave the patient record to work with images.
Images are opened directly within the dental chart — no switching to a separate imaging workstation or application. The clinician sees the X-ray and the odontogram in the same workflow, at the same time.
Compare 2 or 4 images simultaneously in a split-screen layout. Monitor periapical healing, track bone levels over successive radiographic examinations, and demonstrate clinical progress to the patient in a single view.
Zoom, flip, rotate, and apply brightness, contrast, sharpening and invert filters directly on the stored image. Bring out diagnostic detail without any external image editing software.
Direct capture from intra-oral sensors and TWAIN-compatible scanners and cameras with no intermediate steps. Images land in the patient chart the moment acquisition is complete — no import, no manual filing.
Add freehand drawing, text labels and clinical icon overlays directly on stored images. Highlight pathology, mark planned procedure sites and add notes that remain associated with the image in the permanent record.
DICOM, JPG, BMP and TIFF — all archiving-ready from day one. Legacy images from prior systems can be imported and linked to the patient dental chart without reformatting or losing metadata.
Dental imaging in metaDENT is not a standalone application bolted alongside the clinical system — it is embedded within the patient dental chart. An X-ray captured from an intra-oral sensor is immediately associated with the patient record, the relevant tooth on the odontogram, and the visit encounter. The dentist never leaves the chart to view, manipulate or annotate an image.
Because images are stored in the same platform as the rest of the patient record, they are available to authorised clinicians anywhere in the network. Referral letters generated from the chart can include annotated images without any additional export step. Images are retained according to the same configurable policy that governs all patient records, ensuring consistent compliance across the practice.
