DIAGNOdent Caries Detection in North Arlington

The DIAGNOdent® pen is a valuable diagnostic tool that aids in the detection of dental decay.  Used as an adjunct to a comprehensive clinical examination and radiographs, the DIAGNOdent pen is especially helpful for identifying cavities that lay beneath the surface of the tooth, in the pits, fissures, and proximal areas. Using laser fluorescence to differentiate between healthy and decayed tooth structure, the DIAGNOdent pen is over 90% accurate in detecting early cavities. By facilitating the detection of cavities in their earliest stages, this precise and gentle technology helps to preserve the greatest amount of healthy tooth structure.
