DS Core Diagnosis

Dentsply Sirona Inc.

Displays and supports interpretation of digital/digitized dental media, including CBCT and other 2D/3D X-ray images; its Panoramic Curve Proposal generates a proposed dental-arch curve for patients aged 12 years and older with permanent dentition that a clinician can review and adjust.

Evidence status: each field shows source quality, applicability, and review date. Research pending, information not established in reviewed sources, and vendor documentation pending are distinct outcomes.

Clinical fit

What this tool is for

Start with the authorized purpose, then verify how it fits your service line and reading workflow.

Exact purpose
Displays and supports interpretation of digital/digitized dental media, including CBCT and other 2D/3D X-ray images; its Panoramic Curve Proposal generates a proposed dental-arch curve for patients aged 12 years and older with permanent dentition that a clinician can review and adjust.

Intended users
Qualified dental clinicians

Care setting and population
Adult and Pediatric
Public source Exact FDA submission Checked 2026-09-01

Patient-population text reported in the exact-submission ACR model card; institutional setting may still require vendor confirmation.

Workflow role
Detection, localization, or diagnostic support
Public source Exact FDA submission Checked 2026-09-01

Conservative normalization of explicit wording in an exact-submission source.

Required input
CT images or data. Inclusion criteria: CBCT scans of patients aged 12 years and older with permanent dentition; digital or digitized dental patient media including 2D and 3D images (bitewings, periapicals, panoramic, CBCT, etc.)
Public source Exact FDA submission Checked 2026-09-01

Conservative normalization of explicit wording in an exact-submission source.

Output and human action
The AI model outputs a proposed panoramic curve of a CBCT scan along the dental arch (Panoramic Curve Proposal). The algorithm proposes a panoramic curve projection layer intended to include all teeth in the scan. The user can review and adjust the proposed curve. The software also provides standard image viewing tools (annotation, flip, rotate, contrast adjustment, brightness, magnification) to assist clinicians in interpreting dental images.
Public source Exact FDA submission Checked 2026-09-01

Clinical output reported in the exact-submission ACR model card.

Limitations
The software supports viewing and a proposed panoramic curve but does not create the source media; the dentist remains responsible for diagnosis and the operator manual states an assistant cannot diagnose.

Regulatory identity

FDA record and catalog context

The FDA listing establishes the regulatory identity. It does not by itself establish local workflow fit, pricing, security, or performance in your environment.

Implementation

Questions for IT, informatics, and operations

Use these fields to structure a vendor demo, security review, and implementation estimate.

Integration
Standards-based DICOM/PACS integration was identified in the FDA submission materials; compatibility with a specific PACS, RIS, EHR, or orchestrator requires confirmation.
Public source Exact FDA submission Checked 2026-08-13

Normalized from the prior exact-submission review. Confirm interface versions and local compatibility during technical evaluation.

Deployment and data flow
On-cloud
Public source Exact FDA submission Checked 2026-08-13

Deployment category preserved from the prior exact-submission review; hosting region, data flow, and current commercial configuration still require vendor confirmation.

Security and privacy
Vendor documentation pending
Vendor confirmation Exact FDA submission Checked 2026-08-13

FDA authorization does not establish the current commercial security posture. Request data-flow diagrams, hosting and retention details, access controls, audit logging, attestations, and incident-response documentation.

Training and support
Vendor documentation pending
Vendor confirmation Exact FDA submission Checked 2026-08-13

Training, onboarding, competency, and support commitments are commercial implementation details that require current vendor documentation.

Monitoring and change control
Vendor documentation pending
Vendor confirmation Exact FDA submission Checked 2026-08-13

Local acceptance testing, production monitoring, drift review, update control, and incident escalation require a current vendor and site-specific governance plan.

Family third-party imaging workflow

The DS Core family page describes cloud storage and collaboration and says third-party X-rays from Planmeca, Morita, and Carestream can be uploaded.

Diagnosis viewer input scope

The operator manual describes media generated by other imaging systems, including 2D/3D X-ray images and digital impressions; the software does not itself create the media.
