Caution: Federal law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a trained and licensed dental practitioner.

  • Intended Use/Indications for Use: CephNinja software is designed for use by dental practices for cephalometric tracing and presenting patient images which are utilized by dental professionals to assist in treatment planning and case diagnosis. Results produced by the software's diagnostic and treatment planning tools must not be used independently of the interpretation of trained and licensed dental practitioners.

  • Method of Use: The main CephNinja software functionality includes image visualization and cephalometric tracing and measurements. CephNinja is used by dental professionals for the visualization of patient images retrieved from a dental cephalometric imaging device scanner for assisting in case diagnosis, review, and treatment planning for orthodontic applications. If a suitable JPEG image (specifically, a lateral cephalometric x-ray) has been imported into the software, the software can be utilized to define a number of structures and landmarks to establish specific anatomical features. The positions of specific landmarks are used to render tracing lines and calculate measurements used in orthodontic treatment planning. The software operates on standard iPhone/iPad (minimum OS 9.0) hardware or on Mac/iMac (minimum OS Big Sur M1) hardware. When iMac hardware is used, images are displayed on the connected display/monitor.
