Within the new decay model, the accuracy of diagnosing "hidden" occlusal caries is recognized to be a challenge. Our visual and radiographic evaluation can be significantly more accurate with the use of the DIAGNOdent laser caries detection aid. Now we can detect even the smallest of lesions at their earliest stage, enabling us to protect and preserve your tooth structure.

Comparison: Conventional Examination vs Diagnodent

With conventional instruments, it is generally not possible to probe tear-drop shaped fissures. DIAGNOdent has the great advantage of detecting caries in the very early stage by measuring the laser fluroescence within the tooth structure.

• Simple, fast and painless examination.
• Precise results without x-ray exposure.
• Proven clinical results.
• Permits use of minimally invasive treatments.
