Caries Detection As many dentists know, detecting decay and problems in their early stages before they become bigger problems is critical to ensure a successful treatment outcome. By using a combination of fiber optic and LED lights, clinicians can detect from 80–90%+ of early stage occlusal and interproximal caries…far more accurate than what X-rays could detect. Clinical Benefits • Systems are lightweight and very portable • Improves practice profitability as lesions are detected earlier • Patients appreciate that with early detection, treatment can be more proactive and conservative • High level of accuracy Intraoral Cameras Over 50% of offices have an intraoral camera. Intraoral cameras are lightweight and easy to move from room to room. They can easily maneuver into tight spaces such as the distal of second molars. They can interface using multiple methods to the computer, including USB, Firewire, S-video, or RCA. They can interface directly with an existing TV. 8 Clinical Benefits Clinical Benefits • Easy for any staff member to learn and use • Lightweight systems can easily be moved from room to room • Quick images on the screen are ideal for patient education and case documentation • Allows patients to see what dental professionals see and participate in the diagnostic process
