DIAGNOdent
At Pacific Dental Care we invest in the most up-to-date equipment, bringing all
the benefits of technology to our dental office located in Glendale,CA 91202.
LESS PAIN – LESS COST – FEWER PROCEDURES These are only some of
the benefits that this new revolutionary technology for tooth decay offers all of
our patients.
DIAGNOdent is the name of the latest dental upgrade at
Pacific Dental Care that can change one’s oral health forever. With its small size,
this tool is making big changes in general dentistry. Traditionally tooth decay
or cavities were identified when spotted in the tooth’s surface by either picks
or x-rays. To show no obvious outer-surface cavities meant healthy teeth…until strong
pain implied the opposite.
Today, our patients have no need to wait for pain to appear. Usually as much as
50% of tooth cavity may go undetected by traditional dental methods because most
cavities start in the hard-to-see valleys and canyon-like structure of the tooth
surface. This new method is a small and practical laser instrument that will scan
the teeth with a harmless light of different wave lengths to find hidden decay.
The innovative tool measures laser fluorescence within the tooth structure. At the
specific wavelength that it operates, healthy tooth structure shows little or no
fluorescence. However, carious tooth structure will show fluorescence, according
to the degree of caries, resulting in elevated scale readings on the display.
Due to the fact that DIAGNOdent may detect earlier stages
of decay, Pacific Dental Care is able to offer incredible benefits for every
patient’s oral health:
- Fewer procedures
- Less pain
- Less cost
- Immediate results
- Time saving
- Prevention of serious oral issues
Cavities at early stages require much less number of dental procedures, which
reflect in less cost and less time spent at our dentist. It’s a great way
to keep little problems from becoming big problems!
