Can You Improve Early Cavity Detection?

We are excited to introduce CariVu. CariVu is a new diagnostic technology used to detect cavities ( dental caries ) or other defects in your teeth.  It uses a special light and camera that makes tooth enamel transparent and darkens lesions or other damage in your teeth ( also called 'transluminal caries detection` or 'laser fluorescence' ).

We are excited to introduce CariVu. CariVu is a new diagnostic technology used to detect cavities ( dental caries ) or other defects in your teeth.  It uses a special light and camera that makes tooth enamel transparent and darkens lesions or other damage in your teeth ( also called 'transluminal caries detection` or 'laser fluorescence' ).

Patients can benefit in several ways from CariVu technology. Children and adults who have difficulty taking x-rays are able to utilize CariVu in lieu of x-rays.  While digital x-rays emit very little radiation, CariVu has no ionizing radiation.

Even better, when CariVu is used in conjunction with digital x-rays the dentist is able to pin point areas of concern in your teeth.   This can help prevent removing unnecessary tooth structure when repairing damaged teeth.

Even more exciting, dark fillings ( amalgam or silver fillings ) often have rotting tooth structure around it, but due to the way dark fillings appear in xrays, it can be very difficult to detect.  With CariVu we are able to detect the beginnings of decay very early on which leads to early replacement, and may negate the need for crowns or more extensive dental work.

I’m from New Mexico in California for a family reunion. I broke a crown called Quality Dentistry, they were able to take me in. Upon arrival they were very friendly and attentive. Natay was AMAZING very friendly explained what she was going to do and replaced the crown. If I lived here I would make Quality Dentistry my permanent dentist.

I started going to Dr Wong at Quality Dentistry in the early 2000’s and I’ve never wanted to change dentists. This practice keeps up with technology and hires qualified, friendly and professional staff members. I always know that my comfort and well being is #1 during any procedure I might have including a simple teeth cleaning process. I highly recommend this dental office.

I have been going here for 20years now! I absolutely love it. I enjoy getting my dental cleanings. My last hygienist had retired and now I have a new favorite hygienist, Rochelle. She and her assistant Julie are so kind and funny. Both super gentle and thorough with explaining things. Dr. Wong (Dale rd) and Dr. Du (Tully Rd) are the dentist I see and they’re awesome. Great chair side manners as well. Both offices have nicest staff and very clean rooms. My husband left his other dentist when we got married and now he always recommends Quality Dentistry to his side of the family.
