From periapical X-ray to a precise intra-surgical tool for real-time accuracy.

ENHANCING ACCURATE LINEAR MEASUREMENT IN INTRA-SURGICAL PERIAPICAL RADIOGRAPHY

OverviewSXR Evaluation

University Testing & Proven Precision

Preliminary testing conducted by oral and maxillofacial radiologists at the University of Texas – San Antonio demonstrated Sniper Xray’s ability to maintain consistent projection geometry and deliver high precision in intraoperative periapical imaging.

From planning to real-time verification

The Oral Surgeon must take into account that errors can occur when transferring the information obtained from the pre-operative radiographic studies to the intra-operative surgical reality

The foundation of radiographic precision in implant dentistry

UNDERSTANDING PAR

Periapical Radiography — What do we know?

The superior spatial resolution and sharpness of periapical radiography (PAR) enable clinicians to visualize fine anatomical details and obtain precise linear measurements.

Why PAR doesn’t work intra-operatively

True accuracy requires perfect parallelism between the depth gauge axis and the film.Virtually unattainable in the surgical field.

Bridging preoperative planning and intraoperative verification

UNDERSTANDING SXR

What is SXR?

An innovative yet simple must-have in the surgeon’s armamentarium.

How to Use SXR

Simple and straightforward.

What SXR adds

SXR bridges the gap between preoperative planning and intra-surgical verification.

Advancing radiographic technology for safer, smarter surgery

CLINICAL INNOVATION

Computer-Assisted Verification

From a mere “PAR” to a precision intra-surgical tool.

SXR Advantages

Straightforward to perform.Allows calibration.High-precision measurement.Immediate real-time feedback.

PRACTICAL VALIDATION OF SXR IN REAL CLINICAL SCENARIOS — THE SAME SYSTEM INCLUDED IN THE SXR EVALUATION UNIT

Clinical Cases

Case Reports

The PAR case series obtained with SXR illustrate intraoperative accuracy, real-time guidance, and detection of deviations affecting surgical outcomes.

Sequential PAR Assessments to Enable Accurate Placement of Long Implants

Sequential PAR acquisition with SXR enabled safe placement of long implants by confirming depth control and optimizing the use of available bone.

Sequential PAR Assessments to Preserve the Inferior Alveolar Nerve

Two sequential PARs enabled safe implant placement by confirming the nerve’s location and optimizing bone use.

Developed by an oral surgeon with more than thirty years of experience in implant placement, SXR was conceived after a clinical event that revealed the need for safer, more accurate intra-surgical guidance.

Born from Experience, Built for Precision

Developed by an oral surgeon with more than thirty years of experience in implant placement, SXR was born from a difficult moment: an iatrogenic injury to the inferior alveolar nerve that created an unpleasant experience for both the patient and the surgeon.

That incident became the spark that led me to search for a better way.

After years of facing the same challenges every surgeon knows — intraoperative doubts, fear of perforation, lack of surface contact, and limited bone availability — I began to envision a tool capable of verifying, in real time, the depth, angulation, and relationship to nearby anatomical structures.

What began as a simple idea evolved through countless prototypes, trials, and refinements until the solution finally took shape.

That’s how SXR came to life: from experience, from necessity, and from the desire to make every procedure safer and more predictable.
