Our office has purchased the newest version of the Dexis sensor and we started using it the office staring in Sept 2009. The new sensor, named Dexis Platinum, has improved imaging capacity as compared to the previous generation sensor and it seemed like a good time for us to go digital! The sensor has an enhanced image when compared to the old sensor. The new sensor provides a better image when viewed in an enlarged full screen mode.

 

 The images produced apprear on our laptop almost instantaneously. Our patients have been almost universally impressed and think its a definate improvement over the X-ray films we had been using.  Once on a computer the images can be easily enlarged and manipulated in various ways that can increase their diagnostic value. Also these images can be easily transmitted via E-mail or on a disk and sent to another dentist.  Duplicated images do not degrade in diagnostic quality the way that normally produced images often can.

Cosmetic Dentistry Tip: Brushing alone is usually not enough to ensure that a person won’t develop periodontal disease. Since 40% of a tooth’s surface is not reachable by tooth brushing, some sort of interproximal cleaning device should be used on a regular basis. Floss, Stimudents and small interproximal brushe , and all work well. It doesn’t matter as much which method is chosen, but what counts is that one of these is effectively used on a regular basis. Regular and frequent professional cleaning at the dentist also help, since they remove any accumulations of plaque and tarter that have been missed by a patient by their daily homecare regime. Also a patients home care can be checked at frequent cleaning visits and the hygienist will encourage them to do better. Human nature being what it is, patients often perform their best home care immediately before and after their checkups. .
