What is BeamReaders and how does it work?
BeamReaders provides expert radiology reporting and CBCT interpretation by our team of oral and maxillofacial radiologists (OMRs) for dental practices.
What we do
When you take a CBCT scan in your practice, BeamReaders' specialists review the scan and provide a comprehensive written report detailing all findings - not just the area of clinical interest, but the entire scan volume.
Why use BeamReaders?
- Expert Interpretation: Our radiologists are specialists in oral and maxillofacial radiology. They are among the most qualified to evaluate CBCT scans and are highly trained to identify findings that might be missed in a routine clinical review.
- Comprehensive Reports: We evaluate the entire scan volume - including airways, sinuses, TMJ, cervical spine, and all anatomical structures - not just the area you're planning to treat.
- Risk Management: A specialist report provides documentation for your patient records and helps protect your practice by identifying incidental findings.
- Better Patient Care: Many significant findings are discovered incidentally outside the area of immediate clinical interest. Our comprehensive review helps ensure nothing is missed.
- Practice Marketing: Offering specialist radiology reports demonstrates a higher standard of care and can differentiate your practice.

Who Interprets My Scans?
All BeamReaders interpretations are performed by oral and maxillofacial radiologists. These specialists graduate from dental schools, and then complete specialized training for at least two years. Many of our team continue to research, author, and educate to continually advance the field. See more information here.
What's Included in a Report?
Every BeamReaders report is tailored to support your clinical efforts. On top of a full pathology review of the entire volume, we analyze each functional area of the scan, synthesize all findings into the diagnostic impressions, and provide supporting images.
