Introducing Diagnodent... Our quest for continuing education has kept us at the forefront of current dental treatments. Dr.Peritore believe's that new technology is just as important to integrate into our high level of care. In order to maintain oral health, the earliest possible care is essential. Our office now has a simple, fast and painless examination using the DIAGNOdent, a harmless laser scanner, which will help us with the early detection of decay. Even very small areas in question are now detected at the earliest stage, enabling us to protect and preserve your teeth and smile. The Diagnodent laser cavity detection system is the most significant breakthrough in technology. With the widespread use of fluoride in both drinking water and toothpastes, it is much harder to detect tooth decay than ever before. This is because the fluoride hardens the enamel so that most decay starts in microscopic defects in the hard surface, and can readily spread into the softer surface beneath. This destroys the tooth from the inside out. Call today to learn about how you can benefit from an examination with Diagnodent.
Locating hidden decay before it destroys tooth structure (from the inside out) is a major goal for modern dentistry. The widespread use of fluoride supplements in dental materials, toothpastes and drinking water has made tooth surfaces harder and more resistant to decay. However, diagnosing cavities beneath the hard surfaces is more challenging because the disease process can start through microscopic defects in the hard surface enamel and can readily spread into the softer tooth structure beneath the surface.
This unique instrument provides instant feedback on the health of the tooth. A pen like probe simply glides over tooth surfaces constantly checking the health of the tooth. A number scale and an alarm signals the operator when there are signs of hidden decay. This new technology is completely safe and painfree.
We encourage regular check-ups, cleanings and home care. Early detection of problems minimize the expenses related to major tooth repair. New technologies take us a giant step forward to helping you achieve the goal of minimally invasive dentistry.
