KaVo NOMAD™ Pro 2: Moving handheld X-ray technology forward

Benefits with NOMAD Pro 2

Besides all of these benefits, with NOMAD Pro 2, there may be less retakes due to X-ray head drift or patient movement when you leave the room. Its ergonomic design includes a handle base that is more stable in your palm. The unit is more balanced, and the system is easily cradled to quickly make setting adjustments and changes in sensor position.

Christopher Hoffpauir, DDS, of Winning Smiles Family Dentistry in Alvin, Texas and founder of The Business of Dentistry and Dental Hub 360 invested in NOMAD technology nearly five years ago. He says, “We use NOMAD for all intraoral images. My team really enjoys the flexibility when taking an FMX. It’s portable, safe, and it was less expensive to get one NOMAD versus two wall units and two pass-through cabinets. In short, the NOMAD just makes sense for the way I practice.”

Ana Fernandez, RDH, from Dr. Hoffpauir’s practice, has used multiple wall-mounted X-ray devices during her 7 years as a hygienist. However, for the past 2 years, she’s been using NOMAD. Ana remarks, “I love the NOMAD! It makes it so easy to take X-rays. I can easily position it, and don’t have to worry about a drifting X-ray head,” referring to the movement that can happen with wall-mounted units.

Proudly assembled in the USA, NOMAD also has the distinction of being the first handheld X-ray on the market. Over the years, the company continues to update this technology to give dentists the freedom and the features they need, with the award-winning quality that they have come to expect from NOMAD.

From its safety and portability to its image capture and new features, the NOMAD Pro 2 is designed with the practice, the clinician, and the patient in mind.

• Utilizing the latest X-ray technology, preserve the quality of your images and deliver exact, repeatable exposures
• The higher-capacity battery technology keeps pace with the demands of busy dental practices
• Ergonomic design innovations make the shape and weight dispersion of the device more stable in your palm
• The unique, acrylic shield protects the operator from direct and scatter radiation
• The internal proprietary housing encases the X-ray tube and backscatter shield to block radiation leakage

Commitment to Safety

To keep operators safe, the NOMAD Pro 2 has two highly devised shielding features. A unique, acrylic shield protects the operator from direct and scatter radiation while an internal proprietary housing encases the X-ray tube to block radiation leakage. 

When the NOMAD Pro 2 is used as directed, this shield creates a “safe zone” for the operator throughout the acquisition process.

Focus on Image Quality

We know that you want to render the best diagnosis to your patients, and the best diagnosis starts with the best image quality. You can depend on the NOMAD Pro 2 to help produce sharp, clear radiographic images. NOMAD Pro 2 utilizes the latest in X-ray technology — a 0.4 mm focal spot plus a 60kV DC X-ray generator that consistently delivers exacting, repeatable exposures.

Efficient Workflow Advantages

Freedom is in your hands with the ability to take an X-ray anywhere out of the office and in any treatment area in your practice. Portable and easy to use, the NOMAD Pro 2 allows you to move freely between operatories and to remain chairside when it really counts.

This innovatively designed unit allows you to stay with your patient during the procedure, especially with fearful or challenging patients.  No more leaving the room to trigger exposures only to return to find that the X-ray head has drifted or that your patient has moved necessitating a retake of the radiograph. From changing image capture settings to exposing the X-ray, you can be there by your patient’s side creating a more positive radiographic experience for you both.

Cost Savings and Simple Installation

With NOMAD Pro 2, there’s an immediate cost savings over multiple operatories that would need wall-mount units. With your new handheld system, you can save on the cost and time of special construction, wiring, and installation. Safety literature and training videos are provided, and your NOMAD Pro 2 is ready for use right out of the box.

Leading Expansion Across the Nation

Proudly manufactured in the U.S.A., the NOMAD was the first handheld to the market and continues to be the world’s leader in intraoral X-ray units. With our past successes and award-winning design, NOMAD continues to be widely accepted in this rapidly growing area in dental technology. Using vital safety and engineering research data, our company has been instrumental in moving this technology forward so that dentists can have the freedom that NOMAD products offer.
