Cavity Detectors

We find our high-tech cavity detector at Alpers Family and Cosmetic Dentistry to be very useful in diagnosing cavities at the earliest possible stage.

Dr. Kristopher Alpers uses this cavity detector in Scottsdale, Arizona, to verify the presence of decay in the teeth. This is a simple and easy technique that is painless and fast. The process of detecting cavities involves our dentist hovering the technology over the teeth, like you would with a metal detector scanning the ground and allowing it to detect cavities. This process gives our dentist the chance to see the cavities, even if they are too small to detect with the naked eye. It can also detect any small signs of decay and infection and allows our dentist to treat the problem before it becomes a huge issue. This saves you from further pain, expenses and more invasive treatments in the future.

We are so grateful for the opportunity to use cavity detectors because it makes your dental visit easier for both you and our team. For more information on what the cavity detector does and how it can improve your care at our practice, we welcome you to give us a call at 480-998-3355! We would love to talk to you.
