DIAGNODENT

The Diagnodent helps detect dental caries at the earliest possible stage so that the most appropriate treatment can be presented to you.

Diagnodent is a fluorescent laser that finds cavities which lie beneath the surface of the tooth. There are often cavities that x-rays and the explorer do not find. This advanced technology helps to preserve a greater amount of your tooth structure by uncovering dental decay before it progresses too far.

Early detection of caries allows us to restore the tooth by removing a minimual amout of tooth structure making the restoration stronger and causing less discomfort for your child.
