About

Carestream Dental is a Rochester, New York-based provider of dental imaging technology and practice management software, operating as a business unit spun off from Carestream Health. The company offers a comprehensive portfolio of dental imaging solutions spanning intraoral X-ray sensors, panoramic imaging systems, 3D cone beam CT (CBCT) scanners, and the clinical software required to acquire, store, manage, and interpret dental images. Carestream Dental serves general dental practices, specialty clinics, dental schools, and group dental organizations globally.\n\nThe company's imaging software platforms, including CS Imaging and CS PracticeWorks, integrate clinical image management with practice workflow features such as patient scheduling, charting, and treatment planning. This integration between imaging hardware and software creates a vertically integrated ecosystem that encourages multi-product adoption within a single practice. Carestream Dental has built a significant installed base in North America and Europe over several decades of operation as part of larger parent organizations including Kodak and Carestream Health.\n\nCarestream Dental competes in the dental technology market against companies such as Dentsply Sirona, Planmeca, and Patterson Companies. The transition from film-based to digital radiography was a key growth driver historically, and the company now focuses on 3D imaging adoption, digital impression workflow integration, and cloud-connected imaging tools. Its deep roots in imaging hardware combined with proprietary software give it a bundled solution advantage when selling into practices upgrading their full radiography infrastructure.
