DIAGNOdent™ is a state-of-the-art laser cavity detection system with a 90% rate of accuracy. It is one of the most accurate and effective cavity detection systems available and is designed to detect tooth decay in the earliest stages of development, before it is visible to the eye. In fact, DIAGNOdent can even detect decay that is below the surface of your teeth and does not appear on standard digital X-rays. This allows Dr. Jeppson to treat the problem before it can cause significant damage to your teeth. This early treatment also give us the opportunity to use more conservative treatment options, preserving more of your natural tooth structure and giving you better long-term results for your oral health.

When we examine your teeth with DIAGNOdent, we will pass a special handpiece over your teeth. The device will then provide a numeric rating indicating the health level of the tooth and send an alert if a tooth has any decay. Our dentist and team will then create a treatment plan to restore the tooth to full health. Call us to learn more!
