A new DEXIS application provides a novel approach to patient education utilizing one of today’s most popular mobile devices-the iPad.

DEXIS this week released its latest masterpiece, DEXIS go.

The DEXIS go application is a sleek, engaging new way for dental professionals to communicate with patients using an iPad. A companion app to the DEXIS® Imaging Suite software, DEXIS go was designed to provide a great visual patient experience around image presentation in support of clinical findings and treatment recommendations.

“When designing DEXIS go, we were really focused on ensuring that our customer experience is second to none,” said John Steck, director of product management for DEXIS. “We ended up with an elegant app where the interactions feel intuitive from the first time users pick it up, much like the DEXIS software itself.”

Like its parent program, DEXIS go functions as an imaging hub, displaying all radiographic and photographic images within a patient’s record. According to DEXIS, users will find a comfortable familiarity with its simplicity and quad environment; they'll also find that it's been infused with a modern iPad-style flair.

 The DEXIS go app includes the following features:

  • New graphical environment presents beautifully on the iPad's retina display.

  • For easy and quick access, a simplified patient list displays only those who are currently open in DEXIS Imaging Suite.

  • Images shine in full-screen mode; the interface disappears and puts focus on the image.

  • Supports both landscape and portrait orientations (for horizontal and vertical X-rays).

  • Takes full advantage of multi-touch gestures for intuitive image navigation.

  • Swipe through images, pinch to zoom, pan and apply the ClearVu™ enhancement tool.

  • Images displayed on iPad can be mirrored on the practice's HD TV using AirPlay®.

  • Lightbox mode lets you present images in a nostalgic, wow-invoking way.

  • Connects via the practice's Wi-Fi network.

  • Best of all, this app is FREE to registered users of DEXIS Imaging Suite software 10.0.5 or higher and is now available in the Apple® iTunes® store.

To experience DEXIS go first hand, download it for free from the iTunes store; it includes a set of sample patients and images that can be used to test the app even without having DEXIS Imaging Suite installed.

This new app works seamlessly with the recently released DEXIS Imaging Suite software. This next-generation software architecture brings exciting new features including a cosmetic imaging module, an enhanced implant planning module, added video capabilities in DEXimage, integration with select 3D products, and of course, the new companion iPad app, DEXIS go.
