Laser Decay Diagnosis

altOur Diagnodent unit enables us to detect cavities very early in their development. Being able to detect cavities early, while they are still small, helps a great deal in conserving the precious enamel and dentine.












The fine tip of the unit directs laser light into the tooth and the unit measures changes in the way the light is reflected.  These changes are processed in the unit and a digital readout indicates the degree of decay in the tooth being examined.
