This state-of-the-art technology allows us to find the toughest cavities in their earliest stages. With Diagnodent, cavities can be detected on the chewing surfaces of back teeth, even when they are just beginning and would have been missed by previous detection methods. Diagnodent is a small, portable laser unit that detects the cavity and alerts your dental team with an audible signal and a numerical readout, providing detailed information about the cavity’s size. This advanced tool helps us stop cavities in their infancy before they create larger problems – saving you time, money and discomfort.

OralDNA is a simple and advanced system designed to help detect or assess your risk of contracting periodontal disease. The system works by identifying the specific types of bacteria present in your mouth. Using the results from your test, Dr. Norman can design a plan of treatment specific to your individual needs. As with all diseases, early detection is key to receiving fast treatment and a positive prognosis. You will only need to swish a saline solution in your mouth for about 30 seconds. This will provide Dr. Norman with a sample of your saliva which is then sent to a lab for processing.
When the results are returned, Dr. Norman will provide you with your diagnosis and his treatment recommendations to restore or maintain your health!
