A new technique finds cavities |
 |
 |
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). |  |
