Markham Dentist | Tooth Cavity Prevention & Detection
Good news! Dr. M. Weerasinghe at Cornell Dental Centre has a new high-tech way to find cavities and cracks – Without X-rays!
DexisCariVu- A new high-tech way to find Cavities!
Safe, Easy and Painless – Flexible arms gently hug your tooth and bathe it in light. This gives the tooth
a translucent appearance that allows us to see into it. A built-in camera captures video and
pictures.
Early Detection – CariVu has been shown to reveal cavities earlier than X-ray and is 99% accurate
in finding decay between teeth. It also reveals cracks.
Zero Radiation – This exam is good for all patients and is especially beneficial for kids, pregnant
women, and others who want are X-ray adverse. Since it uses no ionizing radiation, it can be used as often as needed.
See What We See – The pictures can be screen-shared with you at a large size. This visualization can help provide insight into your condition and provide you with a better understanding of the recommended treatment plan.
Ongoing Record – We keep an image history of your teeth, so we can compare images from visit-to-visit and monitor changes over time.
We look forward to your next visit and providing you with your first CariVu Exam! Schedule your appointment today.
