Start Every Orthodontic Case with Confidence

Save Time

Pre-treatment CBCT interpretation takes time that most don't have. Hand it off and get your report in as little as 3-5 business days or next-day with rush.

Reduce Risk

Incidental findings have been shown to appear in up to 25% of orthodontic CBCTs1. A written interpretation from a BeamReaders OMR helps spot these findings and documents that your patient received the standard of care.

Better Treatment Planning

Our reports evaluate airway morphology, TMJ structures, impacted teeth, asymmetries, and periodontal support, giving you the complete picture before treatment begins.

Comprehensive Review for Orthodontic Planning

Every radiology report evaluates the entire scan volume to aid your orthodontic planning.

✓ Impacted Teeth

Location and relationship to adjacent structures, IAN canal

✓ TMJ

Condylar position, bony structures, signs of degeneration

✓ Airway

Visualization and quantification of airway morphology

✓ Periodontal Structures

Bone support, root resorption

✓ Symmetry

Identification and quantification of asymmetries

✓ Incidental Findings

Sinus pathology, cervical vertebrae anomalies, endodontic lesions

Send Us Your Toughest Cases

Many orthodontists appreciate the ability to spend more time in chairside care and send us the majority of their scans. Others start by submitting their most complex cases or those cases where a second set of eyes would be helpful, such as:

Large FOV scans where there's more anatomy to review and more risk of incidental findings

Pre-surgical cases involving impacted canines or other complex extractions

TMJ concerns where you need condylar assessment before treatment

Airway evaluation for patients with breathing or sleep concerns

Any case where something looks unusual and you want confirmation

What the Research Says

"The relatively high frequency of incidental findings on CBCT scans (25%) suggests that CBCT scans obtained for orthodontic purposes should be further reviewed by an oral maxillofacial radiologist."

"It is the responsibility of the practitioner ordering the CBCT images to ensure that the scans are adequately interpreted. A referral to an oral radiologist who is qualified to complete this task is a viable option."

I just wanted to write a supreme thank you to BeamReaders.

I wanted to let you know that as of now, we are both responsible for finding carotid calcifications that allowed my patient to see an interventional radiologist who used Doppler technology to find that his carotid artery was 90% occluded and with his history of Burkitt's Lymphoma, led his physicians to remove this blockage and he successfully completed this surgery 2 weeks ago. He gave me a big hug, but without your service and the recognition that you deserve, that hug doesn't happen. And you don't always get the recognition or the hug. I just wanted to make sure that you knew about this and that you have impacted my practice and my patient's life in a real and impactful way.

Thank you for your service and for making us look better.

BeamReaders is by far the best maxillofacial radiology review service in the Americas and probably in the world. Their submitting portal is very easy to navigate and their response time is excellent. Having the reassurance that all their excellent maxillofacial radiologists are reviewing your radiology volumes gives you incredible peace of mind and your patient will have the most up to date diagnosis available today. They may possibly pick up on nuances that other services will usually miss. Having people like Dr. Dania Tamimi as well as Dr. David Hatcher in their team raises the bar of their service to a level that is very difficult to meet by other similar services. They wrote in my opinion what I consider the “Bibles” in TMJ and airway and maxillofacial radiology. Those two books are hands down the best ones available in this subject. Dr. Hatcher, Cory Hatcher, and all of their team have my vote for best Maxillofacial Radiology review service.
