“I have no hesitation in recommending the Rextar from DigitalDental. It is an excellent unit giving us superb digital images and our own monitoring has shown it to be completely safe to use. Anyone considering a new intra-oral X-ray unit should consider this instead of a traditional surgery mounted unit. Cheaper, easier and safer!”

Rextar X - The ultimate portable dental x ray system

 Camera like design

The Rextar is designed like a camera so it is easier use.  Portable and lightweight, you can share it between surgeries or for domicillary.

Ready for any image

Programmable exposure settings for  digital sensors, image plates or traditional wet film.
Takes over 300 images on one charge.

Safety first.

Dual lead shielding, 20cm cone, rectangular collimator
and a new 70Kv generator.
Makes using the Rextar safer than wall mount unit.

Best results in PHE evalutation.

T​he only hand held x ray with 70kv generator.
The lowest patient dose and shortest exposure*
Lower operator dose than a fixed wall mount*

​* PHE-CRCE-023 2016 Guidance on hand held x ray units

Save space, save time
and save money.

Save Space:
No cumbersome wall mounts taking up valuable wall space.

Save time:
 No awkward arms to pull out and no retakes because the arm or patient has moved.

Save money:
​ The portable Rextar costs the same as a high quality wall mount unit.
Replace multiple wall mount x ray units with just one Rextar

Safety

SAFER THAN A FIXED WALL MOUNT X RAY UNIT

Operator dose.
​ Fixed wall mount units versus  Rextar Hand Held Xray
"A constraint on annual effective dose of 0.25 mSv is therefore considered appropriate as an
indicator of whether a particular model of hand-held X-ray equipment is acceptable on
radiation protection grounds for use in general dental practice, as it provides a reasonable
basis for comparing exposures resulting from the use of a hand-held device compared to a
fixed unit."

"The results of PHE’s tests suggest that annual effective
doses to operators of hand-held models fitted with backscatter shields may be lower in some
circumstances than doses to operators of wall-mounted units."

70% less than a fixed wall mount unit

Quality

Focal Spot

• ​Focal spot size is very important in any X-ray.
• Smaller focal spot with the smaller angle degree can provide the sharpest images whatever could be.
• Because smaller divergence angle of the X-ray beams make edges of the image on the detector more accurately.
• You can get higher contrast and density of dental X-ray image by using the focal spot 0.4 mm comparing with 0.8mm portable X-ray devices.
