The NewTom VGi Flex carries a warranty for installation in mobile environments. Treatment of dental sleep disorders is becoming an added procedure to dental offices. Having a patient treated for dental sleep disorder and providing a NewTom VGi3D Cone Beam CT scan can lead to a more accurate airway assessment and a quicker and more effective treatment plan.SGS offers dental sleep medicine CE seminars that focus on teaching dentists the protocols needed to make the treatment of snoring and sleep apnea part of their practices. ImageWorks hopes to leverage SGS's success in the dental sleep medicine market to further expand the NewTom Mobile 3D Cone Beam CT fleet of mobile imaging centers.
