Laser Dentistry - DIAGNOdent Cavity Detection

All Family Dentistry in Fort Collins is proud to offer laser dentistry to our patients. This cutting-edge technology has been around long enough to be proven extremely effective. In fact, it can actually do a much better job than a dentist's examination and x-rays combined as far as detecting cavities, especially cavities found in the deep grooves of our teeth.

When we catch cavities earlier, we are able to save more tooth structure, more money, and avoid the pain associated with deep cavities and tooth decay. The device used to catch these cavities early on is called a DIAGNOdent. This laser device helps lessen the amount of exposure to radiation from x-rays, eliminates the need to probe in the patient's mouth with sharp instruments and tools, and is one of the best preventative care products out there for patients. This is the field's best tool for detecting cavities at their early onset. This way of detecting cavities is painless, and the FDA-approved DIAGNOdent cavity detection device is used for both children and adults. The process of detecting cavities with the DIAGNOdent only takes a few minutes to diagnose and scan a patient's entire mouth, making for a quick and easy visit to the dentist for regularly scheduled check-ups!

By using state-of-the-art technology, we can offer diagnostic tools that no other dental office around can compare to with dental education and simple office x-rays. The benefits of DIAGNOdent allow our office to care for our patient’s teeth in a way that no one else can, offering more preventative, pro-active ways to detect cavities and tooth decay. This allows us to address the problems early on, before they become more damaging, costly, and painful.

If you want the best dental care around, consider Dr. Allen at All Family Dentistry for your family's dental needs. He takes great pride in ensuring his patients have the diagnostic care they need to maintain a happy, healthy smile throughout their lifetime!
