Laser Flourescence
"Microdentistry" Caries Detection

A new technique finds cavities
 that lie beneath the surface 
(as shown here to the right).

Introducing a new tool 
at Dental Care of Stamford to help us detect the invisible.....

Diagnodent helps detect dental caries at the earliest possible stage so that the most appropriate treatment can be designed for you. More accuracy -- less guesswork.

Cross-Sections of a Molar

Measurements from Diagnodent, together with conventional diagnostic tools and valuable professional judgment, will help determine whether to monitor suspect areas over time and treat them with preventive therapy such as fluoride and sealants, or to restore them with minimally invasive techniques (micro-dentistry).

X-Ray Shows Hidden Decay in the Molar that was Cross-Sectioned

Diagnodent is the exciting result of years of research by leading dentists and scientists at universities in Switzerland, Scotland and Germany.
