DIAGNOdent by KaVo
DIAGNOdent uses a small laser to accurately locate decay, as
well as areas prone to decay. Studies show that DIAGNOdent is
more accurate than X-rays, and it emits no radiation because it
is not taking an image, but rather scanning the teeth. The process
is completely comfortable and requires no anesthesia.
Conservative dentistry is always the best option for patients.
When we find decay early, teeth incur less damage and more natural
tooth structure can be retained during restoration. DIAGNOdent
can also find areas prone to future decay. Demineralization in
teeth makes them susceptible to decay. By re-mineralizing with
fluoride, patients may deter cavity formation. Our team believes
prevention is best for the patient because it will reduce your
need for future reconstructive dental procedures. Modern advances
in dentistry, like DIAGNOdent, allow us to give you the most conservative
and precise treatment available, and you deserve it. Now that’s
something to smile about!
