Important information before upgrading to Eaglesoft 24.20

1. Confirm your Schick sensor compatibility with the new Schick sensor IOSS 3.0 integration in Eaglesoft 24.20 before completing the upgrade.
 

  • If you upgrade with incompatible sensor(s) you will no longer be able to acquire new images within Eaglesoft. If your sensor(s) are not compatible, please work with your Patterson salesperson on upgrading them. 

  • Dentsply Sirona is no longer providing developmental updates on the CDR DICOM drivers used in Eaglesoft versions prior to 24.20. To continue receiving developmental updates from Dentsply Sirona, you must be using a compatible sensor and complete the Eaglesoft 24.20 upgrade. Patterson Technology Center will continue to assist you with all questions regarding your Schick devices.
