Advantages of Early Cavity Detection and Increased Patient Comfort
Dr. Ramos offers two NEW high tech ergonomic devices that speed up quality dental care and make patients more comfortable: DIAGNOdent Laser Cavity Detection and the Isolite Mouthpiece. Both offer unique advantages and are becoming increasingly popular among dental patients. In fact, based on patient feedback, Dr. Ramos says "My patients love that we use these and request them when they come back. The Isolite Mouthpiece is especially helpful for people with small mouths, limited opening ability and anxiety."
Top Patient Advantages to DIAGNOdent Laser Cavity Detection:
- Very early cavity detection with much more certainty
- Provides precise and reliable measurements. Proven to be 90% accurate
- Results in less invasive procedures, less drilling, no unnecessary drilling
- No x-ray exposure
- Simple, fast and painless examination
Top Patient Advantages of the Isolite Mouthpiece:
- Comfort and rest for opening the mouth, eases muscle fatigue
- Procedures are faster and more efficient (less time in the chair, faster appointments)
- Greater safety; protects throat and tongue during procedures
- Constant gentle suction of saliva, no worry about particles or amalgam pieces
- Better dentistry because of ergonomic ease, superior illumination and maintenance of a "dry field" which is critical for today's modern bonding materials
