FTG Imaging Launches DC-Air® WatchDog: Real-Time Sensor Tracking That Helps Dental Practices Never Lose a Sensor Again

FTG Imaging has launched DC-Air® WatchDog, a real-time sensor tracking and monitoring platform built for its award-winning DC-Air® True Wireless® intraoral sensor. WatchDog provides continuous location visibility, instant alerts when a sensor isn’t returned to its dock, and a live dashboard—helping dental practices prevent costly sensor loss.

Fort Wayne, IN June 16, 2026 –(PR.com)– FTG Imaging, initial importer of the award-winning DC-Air® True Wireless® direct-conversion intraoral sensor, today announced the launch of DC-Air® WatchDog, a real-time sensor tracking and monitoring software platform built specifically for the DC-Air® sensor. WatchDog is available now directly from FTG Imaging and through FTG’s authorized dealer network.

Although misplaced or accidentally discarded sensors are uncommon, concern about losing a wireless sensor is one of the most frequent questions practices ask when evaluating DC-Air®. WatchDog eliminates that concern by providing continuous sensor tracking, location visibility, and instant alerts.

Using sensor communication data, WatchDog ftgimaging.com identifies each sensor’s last known location, workstation, and activity. If a sensor is not returned to its charging dock within a pre-set time, WatchDog immediately alerts the team so it can be located before it becomes a costly problem.

Always Tracking. Always Protected.

WatchDog features include:
• Instant alerts when a sensor is not returned to its charging dock
• Last-known location tracking by operatory and workstation
• Bluetooth® sensor-finder capability
• Live dashboard showing sensor status and location
• Image quality monitoring and exposure analysis
• Productivity and utilization reporting by operatory, provider, and location
• Multi-location support for group practices and DSOs

More than a sensor-tracking tool, WatchDog helps practices protect their investment against expensive loss of a single sensor, improve accountability, and maximize the performance of every DC-Air sensor.

WatchDog runs locally on operatory computers, with secure cloud-based account access. Because it does not store radiographs, the platform stays lightweight, fast, and simple to deploy. WatchDog also extends the value of the DC-Air® Protection Plan by helping practices prevent a replacement claim from ever being filed: stopping loss at the source instead of reimbursing it after the fact. WatchDog is available standalone for $49 per month per practice with unlimited sensors, or as a discounted add-on to the DC-Air® Protection Plan.

“The best insurance claim is the one you never have to file,” said Rob Sachs of FTG Imaging. “WatchDog gives practices something no warranty can: the ability to stop a loss before it happens. Paired with the DC-Air® sensor’s direct-conversion Image Accuracy, it completes the ecosystem: sharper images, protected investment, total peace of mind.”
