Risk Assessment
A personal message from Dr. Login’s office:
At your next hygiene visit, you will see significant improvements that will make your dental care more personalized, gentler, and more meaningful in our office.
We use a new camera in our office called CariVu™, to find cavities in healthy teeth without X-rays.
We now have enough information and confidence with this instrument to dramatically reduce how often we need to take X-rays.
This new technology is only half the equation. We will implemented a refined risk assessment protocol to better understand how your diet and general health affect your teeth and gums.
The goal of the risk assessment is to work with you on a personalized prevention plan that will reduce the need to take X-rays.
We are delighted to stay on the cutting edge of healthcare delivery, and we look forward to sharing more detailed information when we see you!
We also take ‘occlusal-grams’ so that we can accurately track tooth wear, tooth displacement, and gum recession from year to year. This is done with a small camera that takes 3D photos and a special software that reconstructs the 3D image of your teeth.
