Early Cavity Detection and Treatment

In a modern practice, embracing cutting-edge technology is essential to provide patients with the best possible treatments. Two such innovations that are reshaping modern dental diagnostics and treatment are the Carivu and the Cavitron 300 systems. The Carivu system offers unparalleled early cavity detection capabilities, harnessing the power of transillumination. Using near-infrared light, the Carivu makes enamel appear transparent, allowing dental professionals to spot even the smallest of cavities that might go unnoticed with conventional methods. This early detection not only conserves more of the natural tooth structure but also aids in preventive care, potentially saving patients from more invasive treatments in the future.

Complementing the diagnostic prowess of Carivu is the Cavitron 300, an advanced ultrasonic scaling system. The Cavitron 300 ensures a thorough and comfortable cleaning experience for patients, adeptly removing tartar and plaque even below the gumline. With precision and efficiency, it reduces the time patients spend in the chair while ensuring optimal oral health. When Carivu and Cavitron 300 technologies are integrated into a dental practice, they form a symbiotic relationship. While Carivu focuses on early detection and preventive care, the Cavitron 300 emphasizes maintaining and restoring oral health, offering patients a comprehensive and advanced dental care experience.
