DIAGNODENT PEN

The Diagnodent pen is a hand-held laser caries detection aid. Sub-surface caries lesions can be extremely difficult to detect using an explorer. The Diagnodent helps detect dental caries at the earliest possible stage so that the most appropriate treatment can be presented to you.

Diagnodent is a fluorescent laser that finds cavities which lie beneath the surface of the tooth. There are often cavities that x-rays and the explorer do not find. This advanced technology helps to preserve a greater amount of your tooth structure by uncovering dental decay before it progresses too far.
