Diagnodent

Providing the absolute best service to our patients is of the highest importance to our office.  To aid in achieving this goal, we use a high-tech device called the DIAGNOdent.  This small tool is a portable laser that allows us to detect cavities in the pits and grooves of your teeth that would have otherwise gone undetected by previous methods.  Diagnosing cavities using traditional methods is difficult; studies even show that 50% of cavities are left undetected.  However, the DIAGNOdent enables us to locate and treat these cavities, putting a stop to further decay.  The laser is easy to use, harmless, and will alert us with an audible signal if it detects a cavity.  It will even calculate the approximate size of the cavity so we can better plan treatment.  By using this device, you can be rest assured that cavities will be accurately detected and treated in their infancy.
