Since identifying and filling cavities is one of the most important things we do for patients, we use Diagnodent technology. As the name implies, this technology is a wonderful diagnostic tool that helps detects areas of decay more precisely and sooner than less accurate methods of the past. Studies have shown it to be over 90% accurate. In addition to preventing the spread of decay, Diagnodent's ability to catch decay earlier means that the fillings required are simpler. This allows us to use minimally invasive filling procedures and preserve more natural tooth. Using the low intensity Diagnodent laser also enables us to monitor areas of concern without repeated x-rays. This technology is comfortable for you, as well, with a high level of patient acceptance, appreciation, and satisfaction.
