Calgary Dentist Dr. Kim Orth Explains Patient-Side Benefits of DIAGNOdent Cavity Detection
Dr. Orth explains the DIAGNOdent system, how it works, and the benefits it presents for the patient.
Calgary, Canada, March 30, 2013 --(PR.com)-- In the fight against cavities, reliable detection remains equally important to reliable treatment. Early cavities, however, can often be difficult to detect, as they are sometimes "hidden" within a tooth. DIAGNOdent is a system created to find these hard-to-spot cavities, and Calgary's Dr. Kim Orth was on hand to discuss its patient-side benefits.
"DIAGNOdent is a laser-based technology that helps us better detect cavities or 'dental caries,'" Dr. Orth explains. "Over 90% accurate in caries detection, DIAGNOdent uses a specific wavelength of light to scan for cavities within a tooth. This is decay that may otherwise go undetected in a visual exam, using a dental explorer or through x-rays."
Explaining the science behind the DIAGNOdent system, Dr. Orth offered this: "DIAGNOdent scans the teeth with safe pulses of laser light. If decay is detected, it will emit fluorescent light, alerting us that a cavity is present."
Dr. Orth also went on to detail a few of DIAGNOdent's most important patient-side benefits. "DIAGNOdent allows us to effectively find decay in its earliest stages, preventing more serious damage to the tooth. This can often help patients avoid a more invasive dental procedure - along with any associated expenses."
Dr. Orth's Downtown Calgary practice, Core Dental, holds a reputation for utilizing many of today's most cutting-edge dental technologies. Along with DIAGNOdent, Core Dental features digital x-rays, an intra-oral camera, VELscope® for oral cancer screenings and many others.
Asked to speak on the role of DIAGNOdent in delivering quality dental care, Dr. Orth concluded with this: "In the end, incorporating DIAGNOdent into our practice was important for one reason alone - to better serve those who matter the most to us: our patients."
